Fowler took aerial photos of Alma in 1950 Catholic Church as view from air. Building purchased from Methodist Church probably around 1908 with Father Lee closing the business transaction. The building was destroyed by a storm ca 1921, and new one erected. At one time there was a Rectory next door, but it closed in 1923 and contents sold. The Rectory had a wide front window (remembered because Ike and Maggie Whitfill lived there in 1927 when their home was being built, and their player piano was moved in through the window, as the door was too small) File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/tx/ellis/photos/aerialal18481gph.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.genrecords.org/txfiles/ File size: 1.3 Kb
