The DeCurtins family, sometimes written De Curtins, were involved in Midwestern U.S. church architecture. Anton De Curtins (J. A. De Curtins) was a Swiss immigrant who lived in Carthagena, Ohio and designed several Gothic Revival architecture churches in Mercer County, Ohio, as well as rectories, schools and residences.[1] Anton was a master carpenter, and with his sons he directed the building and decorating of the steepled churches that "still shine across the surrounding flatness of the Northwestern Ohio landscape".[2]

Anton designed St. Aloysius' Catholic Church in Carthagena, one of Swiss missionary priest Francis de Sales Brunner's churches for German Catholics in far western Ohio's Land of the Cross-tipped Churches.[1]

Anton's grandson Frederick designed Immaculate Conception High School (1933) in Celina, Ohio.[2]
