The scanned copy contains a loose sheet of amendments, which, with a few others, have been made in this Web version.

This Web version adds an alphabetical list of parishes for reference and for downloading. To make it easier to extract data after downloading, the format is plain text rather than HTML. In the list, saints’ names in a joint dedication are separated by a + sign (note that Jim Kimmis does not regard “St. Peter and St. Paul” and “St. Michael and All Angels” as joint dedications).

Jim Kimmis (1954–2006) was well known in the field of Earth Mysteries. He did not claim copyright in this publication.
