Jack,

For NYC catholic churches, check the NYCity GenWeb page at:

http://www.tnp.com/nycgenweb/

You'll find a link to a list of RC churches, along with when they were
founded, addresses, and telephone numbers. But you'll find that records
are not centralized and each church charges for research.

Good luck,

Bill Naughton
