Microfilm copy and facsimile of one two-part item, a book that records baptisms, confirmations, marriages, and deaths in Helena, Hellgate, and Frenchtown between 1866 and 1907. Death records include cause of death, gender, age, and (often) country of origin; baptisms note whether the subject is an infant or adult. All records to 1899 are in Latin; records are in English after that date. Most entries are signed by the Jesuit brother that made them. Coverage is by no means complete in the Helena book; there are numerous missing pages. The Missoula book is complete. The microfilm contains both volumes; the bound facsimile contains only the Missoula Mission book.
