From plaque on church, parish was established in 1904, and building dedicated in 1977. I Found NO other information on church or parish in any search. It is a Mission Church for St John Evangelist Catholic Church in Mermentau. The bell on display in front of church building states it came from the 1910 church. I tried to find out what happened to that 1910 building, but could not.
Estherwood was (probably) named from 2 names, Esther the wife of a railroad executive, and Wood, the last name of a prominent local doctor around the turn of the 20th century.
