Title
St. Patrick's and Irish Catholics
Abstract
The establishment of Montreal's Saint Patrick's as the city's first Irish-Catholic Parish church, and the role of Father Patrick Dowd (1813-1891) and other nineteenth-century Sulpicians priests in the organization and running of the parish. The author describes how the English-speaking members of the Sulpician Order over the second-half of the nineteenth century encouraged the segregation of the Irish Catholics away from the control and domination of the city’s French-language Catholic ecclesiastical hierarchy.
