Father William McShea, a priest who lived at the Hickory Hotel in the mid-1940s, traveled to Morgan, 22 miles from Marion, each Sunday to celebrate Mass in the home of a non-Catholic family. Later, his successor traveled to Marion to celebrate the first Mass there in the county courthouse on Jan. 21, 1951.
