A list of Irish Capuchin friars who worked as missionaries in Africa from January 1929 to c.1985. The list was compiled for research purposes by Fr. Alfred O’Mahony OFM Cap. The information is listed under name, year of arrival, details of posting (whether to Northern Rhodesia/Zambia or to South Africa) and remarks. Information is also supplied in respect of whether the friar in question is deceased. The list notes that Fr. Canice Bourke OFM Cap. and Fr. Edward Walsh OFM Cap. travelled to Cape Town in January 1929 on a tour of inspection of potential mission territories.
