      Holy Family Roman Catholic Church

      Begun: 1858
      Early Catholic settlers attended church in South Easthope, Perth County, and in St. Agatha. A schoolhouse in New Hamburg which was purchased on August 11, 1858, was moved to a lot on the east side of Wilmot Street. The land was donated by a non-Catholic. The building was renovated, and dedicated on November 21, 1858 by Father Eugene Funcken from St. Agatha. It soon became apparent that the church was too small for the growing congregation but it was not until the Spring of 1882 that excavation was begun on the foundation for a new building on the west side of town. Once again, a church was built on donated land - the land this time given to the church by Joseph Hartmann, Sr. Although the new white brick church building was completed on July 27, 1883 with the cross in place on the spire, it was not until May 11, 1884 that it was blessed and dedicated. An addition was built in 1967-1968. The date on the church is 1883.

      CHURCH OF THE HOLY FAMILY

      This parish was formed in 1858, being attended from St. Agatha by Rev. E. Funcken who purchased an old public school, erected a tower on it and changed the interior to suit an ecclesiastical building; this served as the place of worship for the ensuing 25 years. In 1881, Mr. Jos. Hartmann donated an acre of ground on Huron Street., about the centre of the town, and building operations for the present church were commenced and completed in 1883. The site was a magnificent one, the church standing elevated above every other building in the town and can easily be seen from any part of Hamburg and surrounding country. The church is 45 by l00, is beautifully frescoed, well furnished and a credit to its congregation. In 1892, one acre of ground was bought from Jacob A. Roth by John Buckel, Sr., for $200.00. The deed was registered to the Roman Catholic Episcopal Corporation of the Diocese of Hamilton on September 9th, 1897. A cemetery was thereon laid out in plots of 15 x 15 feet. There are two main roads and avenues and the cemetery is entirely surrounded by maple trees. In 1907 an additional acre and a quarter to the cemetery was obtained. Much work has been done on it to bring it to its present fitting condition.The Sacred Heart Society has a large number of members, is in a very flourishing condition and has as officers:\emdash Mrs. Carl Messner, President; Miss Susannah Hartmann, Secretary-Treasurer. The other Society is the C. M. B. A. of New Hamburg. President, J. A. Hartmann; Secretary, Alphonse Fischer; Treasurer, F. J. Hartmann. The Church Committee is composed of the following members: J. Monaghan, J. J. Berger, W. Weber,Brudcr, L. Arnold and J. Anderson. Rev. W. Vincent Kloepfer, C. R., whose residence is in Berlin, is the present pastor for the community.
