Details
Dean (Christianity) William N. McNulty (1829-1922), was an American pioneer Roman Catholic priest, who arrived in New York from his native Ballyshannon, Ireland in 1850, during the time of the Great Famine and when, there, then, existed little in the way of Roman Catholic facilities about near by Passaic County, New Jersey. He is responsible for much of the foundation of the structural and institutional infrastructure of today's Roman Catholic Church in Paterson, New Jersey. To the end of his 93 years, a simple parish priest and caring steward of his flock, he refused the Pope's appointment of him as a Domestic prelate and, even, the then powerful Ku Klux Klan could not intimidate this beloved priest's honored 1922 burial. Father "Mac" as he was affectionately known in Paterson was so revered by its Irish and German Roman Catholic communities that his mere admonishing appearance in midst of Passaic County's 1880 Garret Rock May Day Riot or what national newspaper coverage of the time called "the most serious riot that has ever occurred in that section of the country" was sufficient to permit police to thereafter act to end the rioting. During his lifetime, the Pope, anyway, accorded this truly Reverend Father the extraordinary honor of naming him to the office of Papal chamberlain, which office is normally the reserve of European nobility. Father McNulty lies in front of Paterson's St. John's Church under an honoring bronze monument of his counseling a parish youth.
