Ss. Peter and Paul Parish Photographs

Many of these photographs were grouped together in plastic photo sheets, suitable for a three-ring binder. Others were collected in envelopes. In scanning them, we have tried to preserve the printed photographs’ spatial and thematic groupings, but some adjustments to the photographs’ order and layout have been made for clarity.
