These images serve as a record of the life and activities of the Sisters of the Presentation , a religious order of Roman Catholic sisters founded in Ireland in 1776, and established their first American foundation in San Francisco in 1854. The reach of the Presentation Sisters’ ministries extended throughout California, Washington, New Mexico, and countries in Latin America.
