Mary,

According to:
http://home.eznet.net/~halsey/monroe/church1.htm#rc
St. Patrick's was founded in 1822. I think the records start in 1833. You
might check with the archivist at the Diocese of Rochester and see if they
know. Its possible that it started earlier and the records have been lost.
I know there is a large gap in the marriage records beginning in 1842.
