Mount Kisco St. Patrick's Day Parade 2008
March 15, 2008 at 2.00 pm
Ancient Order of Hibernians, Division 16 & the Ladies Ancient Order of Hibernians, Division 16 are pleased to announce the annual St. Patrick’s Day parade will take place on March 15, 2008 at 2 p.m. in Mount Kisco, NY.
The A.O.H., Division 16 was formed on September 13, 1891 and consists of members from throughout the northern Westchester County area of Irish decent and practicing Roman Catholics. The A.O.H. originated in America in NYC on May 4, 1836 in order to protect the Catholic church and priests from a mounting wave of religious bigotry, discrimination, and mob violence. In April 1844 the A.O.H. valiantly defended the old St. Patrick’s Cathedral from being burned down. The A.O.H. evolved in Ireland in the 1600’s to protect the lives of priests who kept the Catholic faith alive but faced death in doing so.
