Augustin and Katherine (sic) were married in the above parish July 14, 1835. (Available parish records for the marriage are missing - the parish being in an infant stage - but the marriage is transcribed from county records). Their first child, Maria Anna, was born April 10, 1836. (St. Alphonsus church records).

The Ursuline Sisters of Toledo branched from that order in Cleveland, Ohio and was still a part of the Cleveland Diocese. In early 1884, Bishop Gilmour requested Toledo Ursulines to send teacher nuns to Montana to establish schools. All thirty volunteered, but the bishop hand picked six of whom Sister Louisa was one. Some of the history of the nuns' endeavors may be found as follows:
