St. Andrew's Church in Port Arthur housed the first separate school in its vestry from 1881.[2] The church was rebuilt after a fire in January 1881, and Bishop Jamot said its first Mass.[3] A committee to rebuild it had George Clavet as secretary-treasurer.[4] The priests of the Jesuit mission, including Father Richard Baxter, Father P. Hamel and Father Nolin, served it in the 1880s.[5]
