Early life and educationCharles Le Blond was born in Celina, Ohio, one of three children of Charles McGinley and Anne Marie (née Brennan) Le Blond.[1] He belonged to a prominent political family in Ohio; his father was a member of the Ohio House of Representatives from 1886 to 1890, and he was a grandson of Francis Celeste Le Blond and a cousin of Frank Le Blond Kloeb.[2] At age five, he moved with his family to Cleveland, where he received his early education at the parochial school of St. John's Cathedral.[3] He attended St. Ignatius High School for six years, graduating in 1903.[2] He then studied for the priesthood at St. Mary's Seminary, also in Cleveland.[4] PriesthoodLe Blond was ordained a priest for the Diocese of Cleveland on June 29, 1909.[5] His first assignment was as a curate at St. John's Cathedral, where he remained for two years.[4] In 1911, he was named director of St. Anthony's Home for Boys.[2] From 1912 to 1933, he served as the first diocesan director of Catholic Charities and Hospitals.[4] During his tenure as director, he laid a foundation for the many charitable Catholic institutions in the diocese.[3] In 1930, he was one of the delegates sent by the United States to the Pan-American Conference on Child Welfare in Lima, Peru.[6] He also represented the National Catholic Welfare Council at the international conferences on social work in Paris, France (1928) and in Frankfurt, Germany (1932).[6] EpiscopacyOn July 21, 1933, Le Blond was appointed the fourth Bishop of St. Joseph, Missouri, by Pope Pius XI.[5] He received his episcopal consecration on the following September 21 from Bishop Joseph Schrembs, with Bishops James A.
