From Sunrise County Architecture (2nd revised and enlarged edition) 1996, p.77:
OUR LADY OF MERCY ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH
The Cornelius Sullivan family endowed Our Lady of Mercy Catholic Church in Whitneyville in 1936. Harold Stuart, a Machias carpenter, built it with all species of local wood. Built in the shape of a cross, the sanctuary is 80-by-28 feet with a full-size basement. Until decommissioned in 1969, Holy Name Church, in Machias, provided priests. Rubicon Playhouse has leased the building until June 1996, with an option to buy. MSC, JCB
