History
It was established as a mission of Immaculate Conception Church in Amenia in 1870, and elevated to parish status in 1889. The first pastor was E.M. Byrne. During his administration a former Baptist church building was purchased in Bangall and refitted as the Church of the Immaculate Conception. It was served by priests from St. Joseph's, as was the mission at Oak Summit.
Mergers
The Archdiocese of New York announced that the parishes of Immaculate Conception in Bangall, NY and St. Joseph in Clinton Corners, NY would merge with St. Joseph's Millbrook. Although remaining churches which may be used on special occasions, Masses and the sacraments will no longer be celebrated on a regular weekly basis at either as of August 2015.
