NotesBellevue's first Catholic church was established as a mission associated with Kirkland's Holy Family parish. Its first services were held in the parlor of the Downey family home. In 1913 the congregation moved into a small wooden building on Main Street near 108th Avenue NE. The brick building seen in this image was built in 1926; it later housed the Bellevue public library after the congregation outgrew the space.

People in image include: Peter Michael, Victoria Downey, Frank Downey, Fred Abraham, Ray Galvin, Reverend Philip Corboy, Helen Adams, Josephine Downey, Joe Hanley, Margaret Downey, Harry King, Mrs. King, Mrs. Lambert, Mr. Pacquet, Grace Ottinger, Mrs. Ottinger, Alice Downey Carlson, Virginia Ottinger, Peter Downey, Sadie Wham. Eastside Heritage Center files contain a document noting where each of these people is in the photo.
