Was St. Mary's Catholic Church the first in Evansville? And I am assuming
that is the original building that is now St. Mary's? Helen Zuber Keusch

says
"Holy Trinity was established in 1849 by Father Francis Kutassy and was
the
second Catholic Church in the city of Evansville. In 1950 lightning
struck the church and it burned to the ground. The present building, shown
at left, was completed in 1957. It served the diocese as the Pro-Cathedral
from 1965, when Assumption was torn down, until 1999"
I would have to do some looking to see when the original church was
built.
