Fox – Irish Cemetery

Near here is the "lost cemetery" of Saint Malachy Catholic Church (1849-1857), a mission church of log construction that served the local Irish community and Catholic Indians. Irish immigrants had come to Menasha to build dams, locks, and canals on the Fox-Wisconsin Waterway, later settling on land-grant farms west of Menasha.

Marker is on North Clayton Avenue north of West American Drive, on the right when traveling north.
