CATHOLIC


Kris-the Assistant Archivist Diocese of Green Bay says the following about 
researching the Catholic Church records.

Please make it as clear as you can to people that they do need to make an appointment. They can't just show up here. We'd have to turn them away and we hate that when that happens.

Our address is 1910 S. Webster Ave., Green Bay, WI 54304. We are in a large red brick building, that many people still refer to as the old Bishop's house (because it was). We are across the street from McDonald's.
