The Irish College at Paris had existed at various locations in the city since 1677. In 1858 the Irish Bishops entrusted it to the Vincentians, who governed it until 1984. It took in no Irish students for the priesthood after 1939, though the then Rector, Father Patrick Travers CM, remained in residence until 1945, and was non-resident Rector until 1972. After the Second World War, the Irish Bishops made the College available to the Seminaire Polonais de Paris. When they left in the late 1980s, the College was redeveloped as an Irish Cultural Centre.
Some of the material will have come into the Archives from the Provincial files, but a large amount seems to have come from the Irish College, Paris, itself: probably brought to Ireland on the closure of the College as a seminary, or afterwards, when confreres were non-resident rectors up to 1984.

Admin History
The Vincentians initially came to Lanark in 1859, when the new Church of St Mary’s, Lanark, was opened. When the parish of Lanark was handed over to the Vincentians it comprised, Carstairs, Kirkfieldbank, New Lanark, Ponfeigh and Douglas. The first Superior was Matthew Kavanagh CM. The church built in the 1850’s was destroyed by fire on 13th April 1907 and a new building was later opened on the same site in 1910.
St Mary’s Hospital, Lanark, was run in connection with the Community.
In 2006 the decision was made for the Vincentians to withdraw from the Parish of St Mary’s, after almost 150 years service. A Farewell Mass was held on the 11th June 2006 at St Mary’s Church, Lanark.
