(Update) Wherabouts of Irish Legionaries of Christ - exclusive info


After posting the original blog entry the blogger received the following info from a reliable source:
---------------------------
(Edited) I didn’t see Fr Declan Creighton’s name on the list – he’s in Connecticut working in a parish but still an LC.  He’s a contemporary of Fr Peter Byrne.  Both Peter and Declan are probably  55 this year not 52 as your document suggests.  Anthony Bannon is in Mexico, not Ireland.  I understand Jude Furlong (70) is in Dublin not Rome.
---------------------------

The blogger notes that he is not sure where Fr. Declan Creighton is...The approximate, and sometimes speculative, nature of the data illustrate how hard it is to gather concrete and specific info re Legion members, their whereabouts and their status vis a vis the Legion, the priesthood, etc.

------------------------

Data contributed by recently discharged Spanish member and other sources

Blogger notes that in his opinion ages are 2-3 year behind; as in all the first 6 entries are now about 70 years of age; basically the first generation of Irish going back to July 1, 1961, Bundoran, Co. Donegal

  1. Fr. Cathal Deveney is in the archdiocese of Armagh, which has recognized his value and has given him a number of responsibilities (he's on the priests' council and is a vicar forane, among other things).
