William Matthews (priest)

 * Nominator(s):  Ergo Sum  18:56, 2 July 2018 (UTC)

This article is about the first Catholic priest who was born in British America. He went on to play a pivotal role in the establishment of Catholicism in Washington, D.C., as he created several schools and orphanages, founded several churches, was a well-known pastor of the largest church in the capital, was a president of Georgetown University, and became the vicar general of Philadelphia. I created this article and have worked to promote it to GA status. It now contains (in my humble opinion) mostly everything about the subject that is both known from history and encyclopedic in nature. The article failed the previous FA nomination due to the unknown copyright status of the infobox image, which I have now determined.  Ergo Sum  18:56, 2 July 2018 (UTC)

Coord note
Sorry but after remaining open almost a month it appears this review is a bit of a non-starter so I'm going to archive it -- given the lack of commentary I'm willing to waive the usual two-week waiting period if you want to renominate, but I'd suggest trying Peer Review first.
