<< Hi Carleen - Most of the court house records in Duval Co were lost in the
Great Fire of early 1900s in Jax. But it appears that the records at the
Church of the Immaculate Conception in Jax survived, as I received my
grandfather's baptism records - late 1800s - from them some years ago.
I do not have the address of the church but maybe someone else in Jax can
tell you.
Good hunting. Ed T of PGH >>
Carleen,
I believe Ed is correct; although church buildings were destroyed in the fire
of 1901, church records were maintained elsewhere. The original church was
destroyed by Federal soldiers in 1863.
Here are a couple of addresses that should be helpful:
Immaculate Conception Catholic Church
121 East Duval Street
Jacksonville, FL 32202
904.359.0331
Diocese of St Augustine/
Catholic Charities Bureau
Administration Office
11625 St Augustine Rd
Jacksonville, FL 32258
904.262.3200
