The Coming of the Irish Capuchins to Cape Town
Part of Irish Capuchin Archives
A documentary history by Fr. Marcellus Carroll OFM Cap. referring to the arrival of the Irish Capuchins in South Africa and to their early work in Cape Town. The preface notes that the booklet was not intended for publication. His primary sources were the ‘writings of the late Fr. Kevin Lenaghan SJ, the now defunct "Catholic Magazine", and the "Southern Cross", and the archives in the Chancery in Cape Town, and those of Parow and Athlone parishes’. The documents relate primarily the period from 1929-40, but reference is also made to developments up to the late 1970s.
