  • 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.

  • Bishop Angell
    For immediate release Roman Catholic Diocese of Burlington 55 Joy Drive, So. Burlington, VT 05403 Contact: Ellen Kane, 846-5837 or [email protected] Burlington, Vermont: The Most Reverend Kenneth A. Angell, the eighth Bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Burlington, age 86, died on October 4, 2016. He served as Bishop of Burlington from 1992 to 2005, a good-humored man of faith with a heart directed towards the dignity of all humanity. Bishop Angell was a man who pledged cooperation and support within the ecumenical and inter-faith communities of Vermont as he sought to work with them to transform society to reflect the values they shared and proclaimed. He also exhibited a shepherd’s heart in his care for all the people of Vermont regardless of their faith and lived out his episcopal motto to “serve the Lord with gladness.” After the events of September 11, 2001, in which his brother and sister-in-law lost their lives, Bishop Angell exhibited exceptional leadership in calling for forgiveness and mercy, as well as peace and reconciliation among all people. During his tenure as Bishop, he established a diocesan Bishop’s Commission on Women to ascertain the needs and concerns of Vermont Catholics on issues related to women in the Church; the Office of Safe Environments to implement the Charter for the Protection of Children and to oversee programs to ensure safety for those involved with Church ministries; a House of Discernment for vocations to the priesthood; and Ministry Training program for those who were discerning a call to leadership ministries.
