T.W. Campbell, The Priests of the Diocese of Armidale: A Necrology, Braddon ACT, 2005:
Barry, Walter (CSsR)
Listed in E J Doody, Acta et Statuta 1951, Appendix VI, Obituary List, in the section headed 'supplementary list of priests who have also worked in the diocese', but with no details other than the period he reputedly worked in the diocese, in this case 1905.
Walter Barry was a Redemptorist priest who conducted missions. He probably would have conducted a mission or missions within the diocese in the period nominated. He was not a priest of the diocese.
