St. Augustine Church
Established 1877
900 households
By August 1873, Glastonbury was the pastoral responsibility of St. Mary, East Hartford. Father John A. Mulcahy of St. Mary bought land in South Glastonbury on November 6, 1877 to build a chapel on the north side of Hopewell Road. On April 7, 1878, Bishop Thomas Galberry blessed the cornerstone. The chapel was dedicated to St. Augustine on November 17 of that year. In March 1902, Bishop Michael A. Tierney established rustic St. Augustine as a parish under Father Francis M. Murray. In November 1906, the parish acquired a four-acre plot deeded by the Purtill family that was cleared for a parish cemetery. |
