Selkirk & Belcourt Pembina

DUMOULIN CHURCH The first church in the northwest stood about three hundred feet east of this marker. It was founded in 1818 by Father Joseph Dumoulin along with a school and cemetery. The site was abandoned after the boundary survey and was not used until 1848. Father Belcourt, North Dakota's pioneer priest rebuilt the mission which stood until 1863 when it was destroyed by cannon fire from Hatch's Battalion. The mission was later transferred to Pembina. The cemetery was not moved; and here where they were buried hidden by the years of progress, still lie the remains of North Dakota's earliest pioneers.
