These bells are located outside of Christ, Prince of Peace Roman Catholic Church on the corner of 4th Avenue and 8th Street in Ford City, Pennsylvania. The church was built in 1912 and was originally called Saint Mary's Church. At some point the parish was renamed Christ, Prince of Peace. It is now a partner parish with Saint Lawrence Church in the nearby town of Cadogan.
The three bells are on carriages in the yard to the north of the church. They were all cast by the McShane Bell Foundry in Baltimore, Maryland in 1909. It is likely that the bells were originally installed in the the church's two steeples, however this is not known for certain.
