This organization was founded in 1939, by Margaret Mary J. Mangan, who later became the first Supreme President; Past Faithful Navigator John Leo Coyle and Past Grand Knight Charles P. Maruca under the inspiration of Msgr. J. Francis Mc Intyre, then Chaplain of the New York Chapter Knights of Columbus., who later became J. Francis Cardinal Mc Intyre of Los Angeles, and was established to form Catholic Women's Auxiliaries to be affiliated with and support the Knights of Columbus.
