The number of Catholics grew rapidly in the 19th and 20th centuries through high fertility and immigration, especially from [[Irish Americans|Ireland]] and [[German Americans|Germany]],<ref>Michael V. Gannon, "Before and after Modernism: The Intellectual Isolation of the American Priest," in ''The Catholic Priest In The United States: Historical Investigations'', edited by John Tracy Ellis (Collegeville: St. John's University Press, 1971) 300. Gannon notes: "The German states provided the second largest immigration of Catholics [after the Irish], clergy and lay, some 606,791 in the period 1815–1865, and another 680,000 between 1865 and 1900, while the Irish immigration in the latter period amounted to only 520,000."</ref> and after 1880, [[Eastern Europe]], [[Italian Americans|Italy]], and [[French-Canadian Americans|Quebec]]. Large scale Catholic immigration from [[Mexico]] began after 1910, and in 2019 Latinos comprised 37 percent of American Catholics.
