Quis ut Deus? A.D. 1884.
I was in Huron County Ohio, just south of Bellevue. Sign in front, and next to the church, near the road (not in foto) reads St. Gaspar. The nearby graveyard is St. Michael's Cemetery. Quis ut Deus [above 'ut' looks like 'at', or 'ot'; but 'ut' is correct] is Latin for "Who [is] like God?", which in Hebrew is Michael. The balance is a symbol for St. Michael the Archangel. The church was built as St. Michael.
I read St. Gaspar del Bufalo came about in 2005. Assumption Reed, St. Sebastian Bismark, and St. Michael Marywood were merged. Assumption, and Sebastian were demolished in 2019.180° from the previous foto
