his picturesque red brick, Queen Anne-style structure was erected as a residence and office for St. Mary's parish priests in 1886, during the pastorate of Father C. M. B. Schenkelberg. The rectory archives contain the complete sacramental records of all of the early Catholic missionaries in the area, including those of Father Frederic Baraga. The rectory complex has been enlarged over the years with the addition of a garage in 1926, housekeeping quarters in 1953 and office space in 1959.

NEW: Instructions for logging Missing Marker Visits.
If the Marker is missing, but still listed here, you must provide a photo of you at the actual item historically honored. (This should be the waymark's "default" image). Indicate in your log that you took your photo at the Historical Location instead of the marker, because the marker was missing. Please also still include a bit about your visit to the site.
