Yes, the Archdiocese is in Fall River. I just sent an inquiry to the church though, as I had been looking at another church for the information. So thank you for that and we'll see if they respond. The Archdiocese requests appointments and had a 6 - 8 week response rate for inquiries. The original church was located on County Rd, which was not far from where they lived, and they are buried in St. John's Cemetery, so that makes sense. We'll see if there is access to the local records outside of the Archdiocese archives.
Thanks! Elaine . On Friday, August 26, 2016 at 12:47:36 AM UTC-4, Cheri Mello wrote: > > I think the churches there belong to the Diocese of Fall River. Maybe > someone who lives there can confirm.
