An update on this unknown Johnstown Church - reader Bill and Mary Alt write: I saw your picture of "Unknown Church Wedding 1950" today and immediately recognized it as my church before it was remodeled in the 1950's. The picture is of the interior of St. Joseph Church on Railroad Street just off of Adams Street in Johnstown. St. Joseph Church's clergy were Order of St. Benedict (OSB) from St Vincent Abbey in Latrobe, PA. St Joe's served the ethnic German RC parishioners in downtown Johnstown and the surrounding area for many, many years.
