Lease St. Anne's for your next party
or special occasion!
|
| The St. Anne Church building was relocated to our place in Canton,
Mississippi in 1996 when the Bishop made the decision to destroy the building
due to vandalism. Because of the historic nature and personal ties to the building, Greg
and Sheila quickly made the decision to relocate St. Anne's. The 40 foot by 70 foot
building has been renovated by Greg and is now available for receptions, dinners, parties,
family reunion, company retreats, and other special occasions. We don't believe
that you could find a lovelier setting for your special occasion. |
History
In 1837, Peter and Anne Harkins came to Mississippi from
Ireland. A log church was built in 1850. In 1873, a grand structure replaced
it. Their work ethic made them prosper but the church of this faithful group burned
in February, 1937. One month later, on St. Patrick's Day, they began to dismantle
and build anew. From the wood arches inside to brick arches on the outside, this
was a grand structure for the hill farmers of Leake County. For its protection, the
structure has been relocated to Highway 16 in Canton, Mississippi. Its preservation
has begun by Greg Harkins, the great, great, great, great grandson of Peter and
Anne. Funds generated from chair sales have gone towards the restoration of Old St.
Anne's building.

Greg and Sheila would love to have you to St. Anne's
for your next special occasion. |
The Harkins' family is very large and always loves to be with
friends and family. Because of this, we know how to throw a party. This new
location allows you to get out in the country with only a 20 minute drive from Jackson,
Mississippi. Greg and Sheila can cater your occasion or you may want to lease the
building and provide your own caterer.
Couple your dinner with a buggy ride and you will have an
experience of a lifetime.
