Archivist furthered knowledge of church

Your tribute to Sister Felicitas Powers (CR, April 23) was certainly welcome news.

I will always remember her kind and gracious help during my research of the Carroll family. She provided me with all the baptismal records for the children of Charles Carroll Jr., who lived at Homewood House on the Johns Hopkins University campus, as well as instruction on and information about research and historical information. Filling in the missing links for a family as important as the Carrolls benefits both church and state history. Sister Felicitas was an outstanding professional who was familiar with church history in the United States. She was a great lady, with a great legacy.
