With the arrival of so many Irish immigrants in the early 1800's, the need for an established Roman Catholic church in Woodstock (then known as "The Creek") grew. In 1832, St. Malachy's Chapel was built on the current site of St. Gertrude's Roman Catholic Church. By 1842, St. Gertrude's Parish was established, the same time that the Maine/New Brunswick border was created. In 1849 Woodstock Parish encompassed Nackawic to Grand Falls, including Houlton, Maine. It was another 10 years before the first Mass was celebrated due to the local protestant/ Catholic strife, culminating in a riot on July 12, 1847, between the Orangemen and Irish Catholics in Woodstock. In 1849 with the arrival of Father Thomas Connelly that a 2nd larger church was completed.

The church's cemetery was established 3 -4 blocks away, adjacent to the Meduxnekeag River. It is where Park Street ends and is bounded to the south by the old Methodist Cemetery.
