Sacred Heart (Manly, Iowa)

Description

“Father Michael J. Farrelly was appointed the first resident pastor in 1897. Beginning with his appointment, the pastor of Manly also cared for the mission church at Plymouth. About a year later the parish built a rectory, destroyed by fire after a few years and soon rebuilt. In 1900 Father Farrelly directed the building of the second frame church dedicated to a Sacred Heart. The original church was moved and served other purposes. In 1892 the parish purchased four acres for a cemetery.”
