Back in the early 60's late 50's, there was a nun's house on the corner of Genessee and Locust St.'s in Lockport. I think the house is still there but its now a private home. I remember as a young girl going to my church down the street from them and seeing the nuns on their way to church which was just about another block away from mine. I'm not sure if they were called the St. Mary's nuns though.
