Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur East West Archives

I’m sorry, I don’t know that. This page is generally used to locate Sisters for family research.

Hi there, I was hoping you could help me. I am searching for information regarding a relative from several generations ago. Her name was Mary Ann Curran and she took the name Sister Thecla. She was possibly born in 1839 in Ireland and died in 1902. She lived at the Academy of Notre Dame in Lowell, Mass. I understand you may not have this information, if not, I’m hoping someone can point me in the right direction. Thank you!

Hello, I really feal that to join this congregation, as a sister, please help me out,,

I am looking for the obituary and buriel stone of Elizabeth McShane, her religious name was Mary of the Redemption. She was Mother Superior from 1864-1892 at Notre Dame high school Norwich in Norfolk.
She was my 3x great aunt.

Looking for information, history, pictures of my great great aunt Catherine Wenstrup – Sister Mary Johanna DOB 2/12/1847 Vows 7/27/1869 DOD 3/7/1918

My sister and I are looking for information (pictures, date of death) on our great aunt Mary Bridget MacNeill. We believe her “sister” name was Sister Marie Gonzaga. She was born on March 18, 1871 in Ingonish, Nova Scotia, Canada and arrived in Boston, MA around 1885. She lived with her parents, Edward and Sarah, until she entered the convent. We believe she might have entered the convent in the 1920s but we are unsure of the date. Thank you for your help.
Sincerely,
Margaret Nolan Lloyd

Dear Ms Barthelemy, Good morning! I hope today finds you well. I am who I am due to the direction, education, and love given to me at Saint Mark School in Dorchester, MA. I was a student from 1969 – 1977 and later on a teacher at home again! I would like to find Sister Catherine Thomas, SND. She was the wonderful principal from 1974 – at least 1988. Could you help me? Thank you, Donna Vitello

Hello. I am looking for Sister Julie St. William. She lived at the convent on the grounds of Our Lady of the Angels parish in Worcester, MA, as well as teaching at its school. This would have been in the mid- to late 1960s. I remember her so fondly.Thank you.

Hello! I am looking for information about my great aunt Sister Josephine Imelda. What I know is that she was a teacher. And she died at the convent in Somerville, MA where she had lived for quite a long time. Her given name was Grace Foran. She would have been born possibly between 1895 and 1905. She probably died sometime in the 80s. Thank you so much in advance.

I knew a girl in high school in Louisville Ky named Marianne Beard. I have recently learned that she is in the order of Sisters of Saint Mary of Namur and is a nuclear physicist. She would be about 78 years old. I also studied physics and am hoping you can tell me anything about her.

I am trying to locate one of my classmates from Cardinal Cushing Central High School, South Boston MA. Her name is Margaret Nelson. She joined the Sisters of Notre Dame after graduation in 1971. We are planning a high school reunion for the spring of 2022. Would you please give her my email address and/or home address so I can have her name and current information added to our class list. Also, if there are Sisters who taught at Cardinale Cushing while we were there, 1967 – 1971, we would love to have them join us for our 50th+ reunion. Please have them contact me for additional information.
