History
St. John the Baptist
.
In June 1898, Father Zebris was appointed as pastor of a church in
Poquonock to discuss offering Mass on Sundays in Hartford. The immigrants held a July 4 bazaar, and from the proceeds were able to rent a large room in a building on the corner of Sheldon and Main Street. They celebrated their first Mass there on July 17, 1898.[1]
