Description
Summary:Among the most important and substantial groups of records in the Archives are the following: extensive files relating to the Jesuits' Maryland estates from the seventeenth century onward; correspondence received by colonial Jesuit Superiors and various provincials; Archbishop John Carroll's extensive correspondence with the English Jesuits, and especially with Rev. Charles Plowden; papers of individual Jesuits, including Revs. Stephen L. Dubuisson, Jose A. Lopez, and Peter Kenney; and papers relating to the Fenwicks and other early Maryland Catholic families connected in one way or another with the Jesuits. Although the bulk of the material dates from the nineteenth century, the earlier records constitute the most important single historical source for knowledge of the growth of Catholicism in colonial America.
