St. Patrick's Church was built on Fulton Street in 1872 with funds from Captain Thomas Kirby. With the continuing support of the Catholic community, by 1887 the church also had a new spire, a bell, and an organ. The school was opened in 1919 and operated until the 1950s. The updating of US-31 and growth in membership led to the construction of the present St. Patrick's Church, which was dedicated in 1957.
