St John Ogilvie Resources

On this page we provide a number of resources - paintings, articles, historical documents, photographs and videos. Some can be viewed and downloaded directly from here at St Aloysius', some from the archives of the Archdiocese  of Glasgow and 'Flourish', some from the archives of the British Jesuit Province and some from the Jesuit Institute of the British Province.

We hope you find these resources helpful in learning more about St John Ogilvie, his life, martyrdom and canonisation.
