Biography:
a) She was born December 4, 1899 and Baptized December 5. Sponsors were: Joseph Renn and Clara VanRoy. She was baptized at St. Mary's Church in Appleton, Wisconsin
b) Her parents were: John Renn and Susan VanRoy
c) She entered the community on August 8, 1920 as a Candidate
d) She was received into the Novitiate on June 21, 1921 and made her First Profession of vows on August 15, 1923. I have photos of her as a candidate and several as a novice.
e) Then I have a sheet that states: Sister Alphonse Renn was a musician. She died at our Motherhouse on July 5, 1924 at the age of 24, professed just 10 months. Cause of death: Cancer.
f) I have several photos but very little information as to who is who on the photo.
a. One as a candidate dated 1920 with a little girl next to her. Another photo identifies the little girl as "Sue Crinj's mother" Not sure Crinj is spelled right. Might be a "g" = Cring
b. Anotherr photo with her as novice with I'm guessing is her mother, the little girl and a brother. I don't think it's her father.
c. Another with her as a candidate and another professed Sister. Another photo identifies this nun as possibly Sister Modesta. Was she also a relative of yours????
d. Another photo with her a novice, The above nun (Modesta???) and her mother.
e. Then a group picture of her with the woman again who looks like her mother, a grandmother,, and several children. I'm guessing that one of the photos was her as a candidate on the day that she became a novice. And then this picture was of her as novice after the Reception ceremony. I don't know anything about how many siblings she had, if she was one of the older ones or younger. Several people on this photo could be older sisters with their children.
SO that's about all the information I can offer…a rather long answer to a simple yes or no question. Do you have photos of her? Do you want copies of these? I can scan and send three at a time…that's my limit on this computer. SO I hope I've been some help. I will definitely look forward to hearing from you. I am very addicted to anything that has to do with family genealogy!!! Take care and have a blessed day. I can also send you copies by "snail mail" plus a few of our convent if you've never seen it. Time for lunch. Take care.
Blessings on your day, Sr. Caritas
