AbstractUnlike the East Coast and Pennsylvania, the French founders and the early Spanish rulers welcomed Catholics to the St. Louis area. The vast majority of them emigrated from three northwestern German provinces: the Rhineland, Westphalia, and Hanover, a few came from Catholic Bavaria. William Barnaby Faherty, S.J., traces the settlement, growth, and impact of one of St. Louis's most enduring ethnic communities.
