Book Title: Winterheld

    Rev. Pacific Winterheld, O. F. M., superior of St. Clement's Monastery,
whose history appears upon other pages of these volumes, was born in Louisville,
Ky., March 8, 1855, a son of Geo. and Mary (Engel) Winterheld, both of whom were
natives of Bavaria. He was educated in the parochial school of St. Martin's
church of that city, and later at St. Boniface's college of Louisville, and St.
Francis College of Cincinnati. In 1877 he entered the Holy Trinity Seminary at
Oldenburg, Ind., and was ordained into the priesthood on March 19, 1878. His
first charge was the church of Our Lady of Perpetual Help, at Sedamsville, Ohio,
where he acted as pastor for a few months. In August of 1878, he was appointed
pastor of St. Patrick's church, at Minonk, Illinois, and after remaining here
for six years, was sent to St. John's church, Cincinnati, Ohio, where he became
assistant pastor. After the elapse of two years, Father Winterheld was sent to
Chatham, Ontario, Canada, and there became the assistant of St. Joseph's church
of that city. He remained here for one year, and then became pastor of St.
Joseph's church at Hamilton, Ohio for a year. Subsequently, Father Winterheld
became assistant pastor of St. Mary's church at Detroit, Mich., and St. John
church and St. Francis church, of Cincinnati. Later he was appointed pastor of
the Sacred Heart church, at Calumet, Mich., and two years later, was appointed
pastor of St. Bonventura church at Cincinnati. In the succeeding year, Father
Winterheld became pastor of St. Mary's church at Bloomington, Illinois, where he
continued for over seventeen years. He was then appointed superior of St.
Clement's Monastery at St. Bernard, Ohio, and after continuing here until
August, 1915, he was sent to St. Boniface's Monastery at Louisville, Ky. Here he
also acted as superior for three years, and then returned to St. Clements, where
he is superior at the present time.
