The Tablet, November 2, 1918
Ed Wilkinson's informative summary of the 1918 epidemic in the four counties of the Diocese of Brooklyn has found its way to Cruxnow.org, link HERE. There are references to masks and outdoor celebration of the Mass, without "social distancing." Father Bernard Quinn wrote from the trenches. Help from Church staff is narrated, not that much about how the faithful suffered.

Photos from other sources
Skilled photographers have added many pictures of the churches and schools of Brooklyn to the immense collection on flickr.com
For example, when one goes to the Flickr group pool "Catholic School Architecture" and searches within this group for "brooklyn," the result is astounding.
Please see the link HERE.

I particularly applaud the work of Matthew X. Kiernan, who has added many photos to that group. Please see his photo stream HERE. He has uploaded more than 14,000 photos, and they are searchable. Type the name of the parish in the search box, and you will probably find better photos than what I have offered on my blogs.
