Scope and content
A memorandum chronicling the expansion, building committee resolutions, and financial accounts of Sacred Heart Parish in Lincoln, Nebraska. The papers detail the parish's history since its 1919 founding under the Irish Capuchin friars, listing its early pastors and marking the cornerstone laying for a new church and school building on 21 August 1927. Additionally, the records include signed committee minutes approving a construction loan alongside a detailed financial ledger outlining $13,425 in real estate acquisitions on S and T Streets, a $45,000 building contract, and the accompanying parish subscriptions and borrowed funds.
