History

Queen of All Saints Church was built in 1910-13 and was solemnly dedicated on Thanksgiving Day, November 27, 1913. It is designed in the Gothic Revival style by the firm of Reiley & Steinback. The church's school was built at the same time, but the apse of the church and the rectory were not completed until 1915. The parish dates from 1879 and was originally called St. John's Parish.

Organ

The organ was built in 1913 by Philipp Wirsching of Salem, Ohio and electrified in 1925.
