- Today's Black History Month features the Three Healy brothers, who all became priests - James Augustine Healy (1830-1900), Patrick Francis Healy, S.J. (1834-1910) and Alexander Sherwood Healy (1836-1874). The Healy brothers were three of ten children born in Georgia to Mary Eliza, a slave, and her owner Michael Morris Healy, an Irish immigrant and landowner. Healy sent all of the children to the North where they were not slaves. James, Patrick and Andrew eventually completed seminary in Europe due to racial prejudices in American. In 1875, James became the first African-American bishop, leading the Diocese of Portland, Maine. Patrick was the first president of Georgetown University, an institution that did not accept African-American students until the civil rights movement.
