General Notes

Note

Notes: The date accepted, c.1899, is the date of completion of Choir Chapel since it was originally displayed in the altar. The Chapel was dismantled after the 1963 fire. The sculpture was damaged but restored in 1982 by Norbert and Victoria Koehn of Cleveland for $1500. Originally, Mary and Christ had crowns, but they were not replaced in 1982. Status: OK
