Diocesan Managers and Abuse-Related Documents Bishops run their dioceses with the help of the vicar general, the chancellor, and other officials who are appointed by the bishop and report to him. These men have responsibility for priests accused of sexual abuse, and in Davenport, four accused priests are known to have held diocesan office.

Below we list some of the men who helped manage the Davenport diocese during the sexual abuse crisis. Accused priests who held diocesan office are highlighted in red. Notes provide links to abuse-related documents written by or to the men listed in this table, and to sworn reports of communications with them. The bishops' own documents are noted in the year column. See also our list of Davenport deans.

This table was created from the Davenport entries in the Official Catholic Directory (New York: Kenedy, 1949-2004), an annual publication that aims to list the whereabouts of each U.S. priest on January 1 of a given year (see a sample Directory page).
