Biographical notes:

Diocese created in 1843 with William Quarter as its first bishop. Quarter was succeeded in 1848 by James Oliver Van de Velde; in 1854 by Anthony O'Regan; in 1859 by James Duggan and Thomas P. Foley, who served as coadjutor to the mentally incapacitated Duggan from 1870-79. Chicago was then raised to an archiepiscopal see and Patrick A. Feehan was consecrated archbishop in 1880.

Feehan's successors in the 20th century were James Edward Quigley (1903-1915), George William Mundelein (1916-1939), Samuel Alphonsus Stritch (1940-1946), Albert Gregory Meyer (1946-1965), John P. Cody (1966-1982) and Joseph Bernardin (1982- ).
