When the Ukrainians began to arrive in Rhode Island in the late nineteenth century, they formed church communities, church related organizations, and benevolent societies while earning their living in mills at such localities as Woonsocket, Manville, Central Falls, Providence, Pawtucket, and Little Compton. The early years were extremely difficult, but most of the immigrants settled and adapted to their new home.
