Joseph Machebeuf. He and his close friend Rev Jean Baptiste Lamy, both French missionaries arrived in Ohio in 1839, the same year Holy Angels was established. Their are the two main characters in the novel "Death Comes for the Archbishop" written in 1927 by Willa Cather. The life of Machebeuf is contained in a book entitled "Death's Deceiver" They both left Ohio and went to the Southwest, mainly in New Mexico. Machebeuf became the Bishop of Colorado and later Bishop of Denver. I cannot find any historical information on Holy Angels on the internet like St. Mary's Church. I grew up in Sandusky, but left in 1958 and now live in Florida. Yes, the Sandusky History blog has a great deal of information on Sandusky. Sandusky is mentioned several times in the Cather novel....ron schneiderron schneiderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03447618447369996851noreply@blogger.com
