As we close out the week, we remember the anniversary on September 19, of the Third Battle of Wi******er, during the Civil War. Colonel James M. Schoonmaker, our Founder, received the Congressional Medal of Honor for his actions during the battle. We thank the Colonel's family for their continued support of the Historical Society.

As school begins today for Monessen students, we look back at our parochial schools. At one time there were 4 individual Catholic schools operating in the city. St. Hyacinth (Polish) was the first established in 1910, followed by St. Leonard (Irish) in 1925. Holy Name School (Slovak) started in 1928 and St. Cajetan (Italian) in 1958.
