St Agnes Community Information

You Tube Network

The St. Agnes Roman Catholic Church Face Book has been a great tool to keep our community informed about daily events. It has also been invaluable during the COVID-19 Pandemic to provide the means for us to "attend" mass virtually. We will continue to use Face Book as an important way to communicate.

However, we see You Tube as a repository for retaining visual records of parish information; instructional videos, parishioner interviews, community events highlights.

This link will take you directly to the STAGNESYTN Channel. STAGNESYTN was launched in Februrary, 2021.

As content grows on the site, this will be the quickest way to find instructional videos, and slideshows

Report any misuse or unauthorized posts. Hackers and other operators often post nuisance material to sites like ours. As the site administrator, I will monitor for misuse but be sure to send an email to stagnesuniontown@gmail.cocm to report questionable material.

Genealogical Research

Our parishioners have expressed an interest in genealogical research. Our Cemetery Committee has compiled a database for tracking burial plots in the St Agnes Cemetery. In the process, we discovered a publically available web site that includes information about burials in our cemetery but also includes information beyond the scope of our project; such as nicknames, links to parents, siblings not interred in the St Anges Cemetery. Our databsae includes information about plots owned but not yet occupied and plots currently available. This informaiton is obviously beyond the scope of findagrave.com.

While Find a Grave is very intuitive and easy to use, we have produced a video that visually steps you through the step by step process of tracing ancestors using the links in the Memorial Page search results

The following link will take you directly to a video that explains how you can use FindaGrave.com web site to execute a genealogical search starting with graves in the St Agnes Cemetery.

Parishioner Interviews

Plans include an interview of Wayne Wethington who is the contractor restoring the frescoes and trim around the church interior damaged by severe cracks in the ceilings and walls that were recently repaired.

Community Events Video Highlights

We started with several videos from a reunion prior to the 2002 Picnic that brought together basketball players, fans, supporters, friends and families. We recorded the comments made by Fr. Joseph Mills and present them in their entirety for your enjoyment.
