There have been more recent versions of the Catholic Encyclopedia since
these volumes published early in the 20th century. Most notably, there is
the "New Catholic Encyclopedia" published in 1989 and prepared by the
editorial staff at the Catholic University of America. There are also the
1976 and 1987 versions of "The Catholic Encyclopedia" edited by Robert C.
Broderick and "The Catholic Encyclopedia" edited by Peter Stravinskas and
published in 1991 by Our Sunday Visitor Publishing Division.
Much has changed in the Catholic Church since the early 20th century, as
witness the effects of Vatican II. These earlier volumes, now online thanks
to the initial efforts of the Knights of Columbus, are closer to a more
"traditional" or "conservative" aspect of Roman Catholicism and are
therefore more likely to be helpful to historical archaeologists and
historians trying to discern Catholic dogma and practices of the nineteenth
century and earlier.

What do you mean by 'early edition"? This is the current URL for the
Catholic Encyclopedia. Please explain.
Thanks,
