The series contains the correspondence of Irish Capuchin missionary friars chronicling their work in both South Africa and in Northern Rhodesia (later Zambia). Much of the correspondence is with Provincial Ministers, Provincial Secretaries and Mission Secretaries and includes letters from overseas’ superiors regarding personnel and administrative matters, health care and education projects, evangelization and ministry, and financial matters. Many of the early letters provide personal accounts of the missionary’s activities with details of their work in the field.

This series includes records relating to Irish Capuchin missionary work in Zambia (previously Northern Rhodesia) which commenced in 1931. The series contains correspondence, visitation reports, minutes, newsletters and missionary magazines, travelogues, linguistic material, regional histories, and personal mission journals.

As the work of the missionaries in Zambia embraced not just evangelism, but also, for example, education, medical work, language study and translations, and the development of local agriculture and industry, these records are a valuable source for study across a wide range of research interests.
