  • Archbishop John J. Williams
    Record Group I.06.01 John Joseph Williams Papers, 1852-1907 Introduction & Index Archives, Archdiocese of Boston Introduction Biographical Sketch Scope and Content Content List (A-Z) Subject Index Introduction The John Joseph Williams papers held by the Archives of the Archdiocese of Boston span the years 1852-1907. The collection consists of original letters and documents from the year that Williams was assigned to what was to become St. Joseph’s parish in the West End of Boston until his death 55 years later. The papers number approximately 815 items and are contained in 282 folders arranged alphabetically by correspondent in five manuscript boxes. It is probable that the Williams papers were first put into some kind of order in the Archives in the 1930s when Fathers Robert h. Lord, John E. Sexton, and Edward T. Harrington were researching and writing their History of the Archdiocese of Boston, 1604-1943. At this time the original manuscripts held by the Archdiocese were placed individually in folders and arranged chronologically in file cabinets. One cabinet contained original material and another held typescripts, photostats, and other copies of documents held by other Archives that were gathered as part of the research effort. The outside of each folder noted the author and the recipient of the letter. In addition, several letters were sound in another section of the Archives. It is apparent that these letters were placed in the Archives after Lord, Sexton, and Harrington had completed their initial arrangement of manuscripts relating to the history of the Archdiocese of Boston. In preparing this collection of the original Williams material, a calendar was produced.

  • St. Agnes' Church 1878-1998
    During this Year of Faith, we remember our Catholic heritage and rejoice in who we are now. For many of us, our ancestors were immigrants who came to Cohoes to work in the mills. Because of their faith, they built beautiful churches to worship in. And so, with great dedication and sacrifice, they built St. Bernard’s, St. Joseph's, St. Agnes, St. Patrick's, St. Michael's, St. Marie's, St. Rita's, and Sacred Heart - all a testament to their love of God. God has opened the door of faith for each one us and he invites us to step through the threshold into a deeper relationship with him. Starting in September, St. Michael’s and Holy Trinity will celebrate a different church each month, remembering traditions and customs from each. Come join us as we celebrate in our Cohoes Catholic heritage. JANUARY 2014 St. Agnes’ Church 1878-1998 In the autumn of 1878, the Bishop of the Albany Catholic Diocese, the Rt. Rev. Francis McNeirny, directed a young priest, the Rev. John L. Lowery, to come to Cohoes and found a new parish in the hill section, which would minister to the needs of the Catholics there, mostly Irish immigrants and their families. The parish would be named for one of the earliest martyrs of the church, St. Agnes. A structure was begun on a plot of ground where the lyceum now stands, but while it was yet under construction, the pastor celebrated mass for his new flock in the building which served for many years as Steamer House No.

Riforgiato In the nineteenth century the archbishopric of Baltimore held a special position within the American church. As the first diocese and metropolitan see, its archbishop was accorded a position of honor among the hierarchy, despite the fact that by mid century other cities had eclipsed it as centers of American Catholicism. The death of Samuel Eccleston, fifth archbishop of Baltimore on 22 April 1851 set in motion a struggle for the succession to the premier see that reveals much about the divisions among the hierarchy in antebellum America. Archbishop Eccleston's death was not unexpected. He suffered a nervous disorder of sorts in 1843 which caused "hallucinations of persecution." Two years later he was thrown from his carriage and suffered severe head injuries."2 At best Eccieston was never a strong leader.

  • Profile of an Immigrant Bishop: the Early Career of John Hughes
    PROFILE OF AN IMMIGRANT BISHOP: THE EARLY CAREER OF JOHN HUGHES By VINCENT PETER LANNIE* DURING a visit to the United States a foreign Catholic prelat, Dbecame understandably impressed with the high esteem Bishop John Hughes commanded in this country. When he askel an American priest to explain Hughes's extraordinary influence on both Catholics and non-Catholics, the clergyman replied: "I think that it is because he is always game." In a period when manifest destiny was expanding the American frontier, this "game" bishop constantly expended his energies in behalf of his church, his immigrant flock, and his adopted country. As the foremost Catholic leader of his time, Bishop Hughes epitomized the Catholic spirit of his age and represented his church "as its able and heroic champion, as the defender of its faith, as the advocate of its honor."' Although respect for the bishop intensified with the passage of time, few men have ever been sub- jected to the plethora of abuse, scorn, criticism, and misstatement experienced by this churchman. No distortion of his spiritual office was overlooked by his enemies. He was branded as a partisan and unprincipled politician, violator of the hallowed separation of church and state, ravager of the American common school, per- verter of the American democratic heritage and destiny, and the vassal of a degenerate papacy and decadent church. Praised by his friends, reviled by his enemies, respected by all, this leading spokesman of the Catholic Church of Jacksonian America emerged and remained a paradox in a paradoxical age. John Joseph Hughes was born on a small eroded farm at An- naloghan, County Tyrone, Ireland, on June 24, 1797.2 Economic instability and religious disability impelled the growing boy's *Dr.
