Abstract CMS.063 documents activities at Saint Charles Seminary, training ground for men entering the Pious Society of Saint Charles-Scalabrinians, a congregation of male religious providing pastoral care to migrants and refugees. The documents cover the academic, spiritual and recreational life at the seminary from its founding in 1948 until the training of seminarians shifted to other facilities in the mid 1970s. Because the seminary was housed in a large building that it occupied for a long time, the collection also includes items related to other aspects of the history of the Scalabrini Fathers in the early twentieth century. Types of documents include books, correspondence, newspaper clippings, pamphlets, periodical issues, photographs, and printed ephemera.

Biographical/Historical note

Saint Charles Seminary was an educational instituiton of the Society of Saint Charles-Scalabrinians, a congregation of male religious founded in Piacenza, Emilia-Romagna, Italy, in 1887 to minister to migrants, in transit and in their new homes. Its earliest members were recruited from among ordained clergy by the congregation's founder, receiving a brief formation at the motherhouse in Piacenza before being assigned to the mission field. In 1930, the Scalabrini Fathers in the Province of Saint , which covered the western half of the United States, opened their Sacred Heart Seminary, which accepted high school graduates for training for both membership in the congregation and the priesthood. The Saint Charles Province, which covered the eastern half of the United States, moved to do the same. In 1948, the Saint Charles Province purchased the Flagg Estate at 209 Flagg Place on Staten Island. The estate had been built in 1901 by architect Ernest Flagg as a country retreat for himself, his wife, who had been born Margaret Bonner of Dongan Hills, Staten Island, and whose family owned at least some of the property on which the estate was set. Flagg died in 1947; at that point the Flagg's daughter Elizabeth had married, and her two daughters were in the later years of their schooling, so the widow sold the property and, for a time, lived in one of the smaller houses on it that Flagg had built as models for potential clients. The Saint Charles Province began recruiting young men, mostly from parishes the Scalabrini Fathers staffed, and accepting transfers from Sacred Heart. The seminary opened in the fall of 1948 with a full complement of facilities: living space for the seminarians, the Scalabrini Fathers who provided intellectual training and spiritual formation, and a staff of Sisters of Saint Charles, Scalabrinian nuns, who ran the household. The seminarians were expected to help with the work in and around the house, to attend classes and spend some personal time in study, to participate in communal prayer life and to maintain a personal spiritual life, to join in volunteer work such as catechizing students at nearby Saint Ann's parish, and to enjoy themselves on their spacious property. In 1958, the Flaggs' formal garden was razed to create space for an additional wing to the building to add classrooms, offices and bedrooms. In 1960 the Scalabrini Fathers were gifted with property in Cornwall, New York, which they used for a novitiate, or the first stage in training for the religious order, leaving the young men who had advanced to preparing for their final vows and for the priesthood to study at Saint Charles. In April 1967 the provincial leadership was pleased to learn that the New York City Landmarks Preservatin Commission had designated 209 Flagg Place a city landmark. By the mid 1970s, vocations from the United States had dropped, and standards for seminary training had changed to focus more on keeping the seminaries near the parishes and the people they were learning to serve. Saint Charles ceased to function as a seminary. By then, however, the building had begun to provide space for the Center for Migration Studies, a mission of the province dedicated to collecting and disseminating information on human international migration to support best practices in the care of immigrants and refugees. The Scalabrini Fathers also used the building to generate income, renting space for parties, fundraisers and wedding rehearsals and dinners. The province also realized income from sale of a portion of the property for development as upper-income housing. In 1983, the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission designated the front-lawn landscaping a landmark, preventing further divisions of the land.

- Page 5 - Saint Charles Seminary (Staten Island, New York) Records In 2005, the executive staff of CMS was moved to Manhattan to facilitate contact with other individuals and organizations involved in migrant care. In 2009 the archives followed suit. The former Saint Charles Seminary was emptied of its contents. During the time the Scalabrini Fathers were in residence there, the property was occasionally referred to as "Stone Court," the Flaggs' name for it. It was also known as "209 Flagg Place," after its address, and as "the Flagg Estate," after its previous owners. Long after it ceased being a seminary, it retained the designation "Saint Charles Seminary" on local maps.

Scope and Contents note

CMS.063 documents activities at Saint Charles Seminary betwen its opening in 1948 and the end of its use as a seminary in the mid 1970s. As the seminary was a residential educational institution for an order of priests, its activities were manifold. The adminstration, faculty, students and a staff of sisters resided on the property, in separate parts of the same structure. Young men attended classes, studied, took their meals and recreation, helped clean the house and tend the property, participated in communal prayers and sought out space for personal spiritual life. Clergy teaching on the faculty or assigned to administrative duty joined the young men for prayers, meals, and some recreation, and also maintained offices. The nuns planted gardens, cooked, cleaned, laundered, sewed, maintained the chapel, kept up with the seasonal decorations, and also pursued their own spiritual lives. These activies are documented to different degrees and in different ways. Perhaps the richest documentaion may be found among the photographs, some of which are arranged into albums to provide context, the scrapbooks, and the yearbooks. Each academic year during the 1950s, two seminaries were chosen to keep the house diary, and so for much of that time there is a day-to-day record of activities. Therer is also a collection of press releases that give some idea of events at the seminary. The young men at the seminary were being "formed" as members of the Society of Saint Charles- Scalabrinans, that is, imbued with the Scalabrinians' sense of themselves and their mission. Also, the seminary had a library. For both these reasons, the seminary became the repository of publications regarding the founder and the Scalabrini community. CMS.063 contains one series of publications concerning Scalabrini and another of publications concerning the congregation and its works. Saint Charles Seminary was perhaps the largest property the Saint Charles Province owned; most of the fathers served in parishes that were the property of the sees in which they were located. Also, the seminary had in residence a corps of young men available to assist with clerical work. Thus, CMS.063 documents Scalabrinian activities that have little to do with the seminary. An example of that is the Series devoted to marketing Father to the Immigrants, a biography of the founder written in Italian by Icilio Felici and translated into English and published in 1955. There is also a set of press releases that were probably received by the seminary rather than being issues from it, as they describe events in the province but not at Saint Charles.

- Page 6 - Saint Charles Seminary (Staten Island, New York) Records Saint Charles Seminary was one of many institutions of its time, and can add to what is kown about the training of young men for the priesthood and religious life in the generation after World War II. As the Scalabrini Fathers were founded in Italy and started their mission among Italian immigrants, CMS.063 can add to what is known about the development of the Italian American community in the late twentieth century. Saint Charles Seminary was also part of the community of Staten Island, and the collection documents to some degree how it functioned among the residence, businesses, other institutions in its Todt Hill neighborhood. Similarly, through the images of the young men going about their daily activities one can deduce the activities of the sisters and priests who worked to educate them and to insure their comfort while in residence at Saint Charles.
