The American Catholic Historical Researches, Vol. 19, No. 2 (APRIL, 1902), pp. 61-62

Rev. Richard Archbold, Apostate Jesuit.

The Pennsylvania Gazette of June 19th, 1755, tells of the conversion to Protestantism of this priest by being received into the Church of Ireland at Dublin on the Sunday prior to March 15th 1755, and states he was ten years a missionary in Maryland.

Rev. E. I. Devitt, S. J., supplies The Researches with this information :

January 16, 1902.

Dear Mr Griffin :

I regret that there has been so long a delay in answering your last letter of enquiry. But I was away from home, during the Christmas holidays, and since my return, I have been quite busy. Besides, you wrote: “No hurry”.

Rev. Richard Archbold.

I copy from a letter of Fr George Fenwick, dated at Georgetown, 1856.

“Oliver says: Born August 15, 1713 ; entered the Society, 17 Oct., 1731; for several years, he was employed on the Maryland Mission where he made the Profession of the four Vows, the 22nd of July, 1749. Three years later he was certainly in the Midland District”.

N. B. Fr. Archbold apostatized in Ireland in 1754 (1755.)

This apostacy was to secure the possession of an estate. It was public, in St Andrew's Church, Dublin, on Sunday, 16 March, 1755; but he does not appear to have exercised any ecclesiastical functions for the remainder of his life.

He was in Maryland, in the Catalogue for 1740; mentioned in 1745, at St Thomas; again in 1746 and 1749, when he is marked as having returned to Ireland, or England. He has left behind him many books, with his name written in them, which are still to be seen at Georgetown College, at St. Thomas and Newtown”.

So far, Father George Fenwick; he was far and away, the best equipped man in the Province for his knowledge of the early colonial and ecclesiastical History of Maryland. He had gathered together all the papers that he could find in our houses, and, although frequently importuned to write, he could never be induced to put his recollections into form. It has been an incalculable loss. Some of the Scholastics, notably the late Father Provincial, Robert Fulton, when a young man, offered to act as scribe - to let him walk up and down the room, talking, and they would jot down, what he had to say - but, he was too indifferent. - At least he refers to documents, evidently of Jesuit origin and treating of Jesuit affairs, which he used, and which cannot be found now. I have found the want of papers many a time; Father John Sumner, complained of the same thing, when he was writing the History of Georgetown College for the “College Journal”.

Now, the Campbell papers were kept for some time, after his death, at Ellicotts City, Maryland, where he resided; afterwards, they were placed in charge of George Miles the Poet, and Professor of St. Mary's College. He went to New York - died there - papers, where are they? Try to find them - and the Cath. Hist. Soc. will owe a debt of gratitude - or, when I come into the possession of the bequest to G T C for Historical Research into Maryland Colonial affairs, I will be able to make a handsome offer for them.

The points that Father Fenwick gives relating to Archbold, are about the same as I have collected from independent sources. The date 1754 is manifestly an error, as he quotes 1755 from Oliver, shortly after, and this agrees with the date of your Pennsylvania Gazette. - The “Midland Distrist” was in England.

I know nothing further of Archbold. The laws of Ireland at that time were such as to prevent a Catholic from succeeding to landed estates, unless he conformed to the Protestant Church - the next of kin, being a Protestant, could bar the real heir out, and take possession of his property. It may be that Archbold - in conforming - had no worse motive, - than to prevent some scoundrelly relation from taking advantage of the iniquitous law - Let us hope, that he had the grace to repent of his sin, before he was called to his account.

Perhaps, some Irish book of pedigree, or the landed gentry, such as O'Hart, could furnish more information about him and his family-

Yours Faithfully,

E. I. DEVITT, S. J.

John Finbarr Jones

John Finbarr "Jack" Jones (29 March 1929 – 20 February 2013) was a researcher and scholar of social development,[1] Dean of the Graduate School of Social Work at the University of Denver from 1987 to 1996.[2] He served on the Advisory Board of the United Nations Centre for Regional Development. As director of the social work program at the Chinese University of Hong Kong between 1976 and 1987, he helped recreate the social work field in China. He wrote or edited more than a dozen books on social development, focusing on human security, international conflict resolution, and transitional economies.

Early life and education
Jones was born in Dublin, Ireland, the fourth of five children born to John Jones, a customs and excise agent, and Kathleen O'Brien Jones. He attended boarding school at Clongowes Wood College in County Kildare, until 1948. He then completed his bachelor's degree at National University of Ireland, Dublin (now known as University College Dublin). He joined the Jesuit order after earning his bachelor's degree [gained degree at UCD while a Jesuit], and served as a missionary to Hong Kong. He left the priesthood in 1969. After leaving the priesthood, he earned a master's degree in social work at the University of Michigan, and a Master's in public administration, and a PhD in social work at the University of Minnesota. His doctoral dissertation was adapted into his 1976 book Citizens in Service: Volunteers in Social Welfare During the Depression, 1929 – 1941, which he co-wrote with John M. Herrick.[3]

He married Lois McCleskey Jones, in Washington D.C. in 1974. They had two children.

Professional life, research and scholarship
Shortly after Jones completed his doctoral work, the University of Minnesota recruited him to found its School of Social Development, where he was Dean from 1971 to 1976.

Jones then returned to Hong Kong, where he was director of the department of social work at the Chinese University of Hong Kong until 1987. While in Hong Kong, Jones was vice-chairman of the Hong Kong Council of Social Service, and a member of the Hong Kong Advisory Committee on Social Work Training. In 1980, he edited Building China: Studies in Integrated Development, which documented the earliest stages of development in the People's Republic of China following the upheaval of the Cultural Revolution.[4]

Jones was influential in promoting the concept of Social development theory in the field of social work.[5] In 1981, he co-edited Social Development which helped define this approach.[6]

In 1987, he was appointed dean of the Graduate School of Social Work at the University of Denver. Under his leadership the school founded the Bridge Project,[7] which supports education initiatives in Denver's public housing developments.[8] He also helped form a partnership between DU and the All China Youth Federation and the China Youth University for Political Sciences in Beijing, one of the first such collaborations between American and Chinese universities.[9]

After retiring as dean in 1996, he continued to work as a research professor affiliated with the University of Denver's Conflict Resolution Institute and the Graduate School of Social Work. His contributions to the fields of human security and social development included: The Cost of Reform: The Social Aspect of Transitional Economies which he co-edited with Asfaw Kumssa.[10] Jones was named dean emeritus of the University of Denver Graduate School of Social Work in 2004.

Throughout his academic career, Jones served on several international boards and committees, including the Advisory Committee of the United Nations Centre for Regional Development (UNCRD), and the International Council of Social Welfare. Jones was president of the American Humane Association and served on the Colorado Governor's Business Commission on Child Care Financing.[11]

Jones co-ordinated various private and publicly funded research projects, including:

Research on local social development, transitional economies, and social reforms in Asia and Africa, sponsored by the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UNDESA) and United Nations Center for Regional Development (UNCRD).
Research on social development in China and Hong Kong, funded through the U.N. Social Welfare and Development Center for Asia and the Pacific.
Research on the chronic mentally ill, funded through the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH).
Research on child protective services, funded by the United States Children's Bureau (HHS).
Program evaluation of rural violence prevention, and community impact studies, funded by the Blandin Foundation.
Gap analysis study of training, funded by the Ford Family Foundation.
Immigrants' online database creation and evaluation, funded by First Data / Western Union Foundation.
He also served on several editorial boards, including: Social Development Issues, Regional Development Dialogue, Regional Development Studies, Journal of Social Development in Africa, and Hong Kong Journal of Social Work.
