Английская Википедия:Archdeacon of Ardfert
Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox Anglican province The Archdeacon of Ardfert was a senior ecclesiastical officer within the Anglican Diocese of Limerick, Ardfert and Aghadoe from the early thirteenth century[1] to the early twentieth.[2] As such he was responsible for the disciplinary supervision of the clergy [3] within his part of the Diocese of Ardfert (until 1666); and then the combined diocese of Limerick, Ardfert and Aghadoe.
The archdeaconry can trace its history back to Florence who held the office in 1227.[4] Two incumbents went on to hold bishoprics: John Smith (bishop of Killala and Achonry)[5] and Raymond d’Audemar Orpen.[6] Edward Day, Archdeacon 1782-1788, was a much-loved local figure, "a man of great erudition and unbounded benevolence". His grand-nephew Anthony Denny was also Archdeacon. The last discrete incumbent was William Foley.
