Research Notes

  • Reinhard had been previously married and had 4 known children prior to his marriage to Carolina.
  • From "History of Baltimore City and County" by J. Thomas Scharf, 1881: "The old St. James' church, corner of Eager and Aisquith Streets, was built by Archbishop Whitfield, principally at his own expense. The corner-stone was laid by Dr. Whitfield, May 1, 1933, and it was dedicated and consecrated May 1, 1834. It was used by the English-speaking Catholics of that section of the city until the erection of St. Alphonsus' church was begun. At that time it had become too small for the English congregation, and St. Vincent's church, on Front Street, was erected. As the Germans needed a place of divine worship during the erection of St. Alphonsus' church, Archbishop Eccleston granted them the use of St. James', which from that time remained in their possession. The Redemptorist fathers resided at this church from 1841 until 1847, when the Sisters of Notre Dame purchased the property of the fathers for the purpose of erecting there a mother-house of their order, which afterwards became an academy for young ladies. The fathers of St. Alphonsus' church took charge of St. James' until the erection of the present St. Michael's church. When St. Michael's was established the fathers who resided there attended St. James' church until October 1867. On account of the rapid increase of the congregation a new and larger church had become necessary, and the present edifice was erected at the corner of Eager and Aisquith Streets. It was designed by architect George Frederick, and built in the Romanesque style. The corner-stone was laid on the 22d of October, 1865, by the Very Rev. Vicar-General H. B. Coskery. On the 22d of December, 1867, it was blessed by Archbishop Martin J. Spalding, and opened for divine service."
