I have enjoyed reading about the church. I hope this is where my family went to church and Sunday School. My maternal great grandmother was probably a member there. Her name was Mary Agnes Casey Osborn. She died in 1895 after giving birth to her 10th child. Her obit says that the service was from Trinity Episcopal Church. She is buried in the Clinton cemetery and was buried from Terrell Funeral Home. I've just found this obit after years of searching for information about my mothers family. I'm wondering if Mary Agnes was a member of the church. She was born in 1853 in New York to Irish parents Jeremiah and Ann Gilligan Casey. They were members of St. Johns R.C Church. Newark. She married George Hedden Osborn from Newark and they had the ten children including the last that died after childbirth. My grandmother Mary Emily was the oldest of their children. I don't have much more information about this family. But would love to know if there are records at your church that go that far back. George and Mary Agnes children were born starting 1874 until the last one that died shortly after his birth. Thank you for letting me contribute. It wil be great to hear from you.
