Immaculate Conception Parish
The early 30's of the past century
saw the beginning of a prosperous
settlement in Noble county by Cath
olic immigrants from Fulda, Ger
many. When the little colony had
grown to be of some Importance,
it was named Fulda, because its
hills and valleys reminded the in
habitants of their native land.
The spiritual wants of the early
settlers were cared for by occas-
sional visits from Fathers Reed, Nc
Gallon, Finley, and Murphy. In
l847, the Rev. J. c. Kramer of Mil
tonsburg organized a parish and
made semi-monthly visits to the
community. Erection of a parish
church was begun, and in 1853 the
Most Rev. John B. Purcell, Arch
bishop of Cincinnati, dedicated the
church under the patronage of the
Immaculate Conception of the
Blessed Virgin Mary.
In 1857 the Rev. J. w. Breumer
was appointed first resident pastor.
He was succeeded in 1860 by the
Rev D. ]. Klueber. A period of ex-
traordinary activity ensued, extend
ing over % years. A school building
was erected in 1868, and three years
later a pastoral residence.
ParishiOnerS Made Brick
The original church edifice having
proved inadequate for the growing
community, arrangements were
made for the construction of the
present building. The new structure,
with a seating capacity of 600, was
erected with brick made locally by
the parishioners. It was dedicated
in 1875 by the Most Rev S. H Rose
Grams, first Bishop of Columbus.
Upon the death of Father Klue-
ber, the pastorate was assumed by
the Rev. Ignatius Luetting He was
an elderly man of fine attainmentS,
but failing health, forced him to re-
linquish his post, being succeeded
by the Rev. E. L. Fladung in 1884.
Under Father Fladung'S direction
the present rectory was built.
During the pastorate of the Rev.
B. II. Hansen, which extended from
1889 until 1899, hard times made
additional improvements impossible.
In 1900, however, extensive repairs
on the exterior and interior of the
church were begun under the di-
rection of the Rev. Jacob Engels and
completed the following year under
the paStOrate of the Rev Joseph
Pollman.
Served 25 years
The Rev. J. B. Oeink was ap-
pointed pastor in 1904. Eight years
