N2  - Rev. Patrick McDermott, ""appointed the second pastor in 1859 and served until July, 1879."" Patrick M. McDermott (1821-1882) was a priest at Assumption Catholic Church and is buried in St. Joseph Catholic Cemetery. ""In 1849 the beloved Rev. Patrick McDermott became assistant priest of Assumption Parish. He celebrated his first mass on Christmas day, 1849, and became pastor in 1859. The church property on Second Street, as stated elsewhere, was sold through the efforts of Captain Frank B. Carson for $50,000, of which $5,000 was due the bishop and paid to him and in 1871, the site of the present Assumption church at Seventh and Vine was purchased. The work began in 1872 and on the 7th of July the cornerstone was laid by Bishop le St. Palais. Very Rev. Bede O'Connor was the orator of the occasion. Father McDermott realized that the congregation would grow rapidly and built the church on the present grand scale. In 1879 he was appointed pastor of St. Patrick's church in Indianapolis and left here very much to the regret of all, for he was a greatly beloved man not only as a priest but as a man.
