    Rev. John H. Burke, present pastor of the church of the Nativity, Pleasant
Ridge, was born in Lebanon, Ohio. He was ordained from St. Mary Seminary, Cedar
Port, in 1907, was appointed assistant pastor to Father P. J. Hynes, St. Mary
church, Hyde Park. In 1908 he labored with Rev. Thomas Connell in mission work.
Brown county. In 1915, he was appointed pastor of St. Mary church, Hillsboro,
Ohio. Having superintended the building of a beautiful residence in that parish,
he, in April, 1917, was appointed pastor of the present parish. Arriving in
Pleasant Ridge, a temporary chapel was built to accommodate the forty families,
but on account of the increase of families to 140, a third mass was added for
accommodation. Today a new combination school and church, costing approximately
$100,000, is being completed. The location is one of the finest in the archdiocese.
