Biographical history

Samuel Burgess (1790-1833), Catholic priest, was a Franciscan, originally from Ireland, although his date and place of birth are unknown. It is documented, however, that he was Guardian of the Convent at Roscrea, County Galway in 1815.

Rev. Burgess arrived in Newfoundland circa 1820 and returned to Ireland circa 1827. He died at Cork, circa 1833. Burgess signed the sacramental registers with the initials SFFB and SFB. Little else is currently known about Rev. Burgess.
