3 pp; manuscript

Memorandum on the Parish of Our Lady of Angels, Burlingame, San Francisco. The document was written by Fr. Thomas Dowling OFM Cap. and it outlines the historical founding and early growth of the parish under the Irish Capuchin friars starting in late 1926. The text details how the community quickly outgrew its initial repurposed buildings, leading to a church expansion and the opening of a parochial school under the Sisters of Mercy by August 1927. The document highlights the parish’s rapid statistical growth in attendance and property size, its spiritual care of the local Sisters of Mercy Novitiate, and its formal canonical recognition granted by the Vatican in May 1927.
