  • Collection List A19
    Leabharlann Náisiúnta na hÉireann National Library of Ireland Collection List 19 Augustine Henry and Evelyn Gleeson Papers (MS 13,698) (Accession 2501) Partial calendar with brief description of letters sent by Augustine Henry and Evelyn Gleeson between 1879 and 1928. Letters are arranged according to year and date. 1 Introduction Henry, Augustine (1857–1930), botanical collector and dendrologist, was born on 2 July 1857 in Dundee, the first of six children of Bernard Henry (c.1825–1891) and Mary MacNamee. His father, at one time a gold-prospector in California and Australia, was a native of the townland of Tyanee on the west bank of the River Bann in co. Londonderry. Soon after Austin (as Augustine was called within his family) was born, the family moved to Cookstown, co. Tyrone, where his father was in business as a flax dealer and owned a grocery shop. Henry was educated at Cookstown Academy and in Queen's College, Galway. He studied natural sciences and philosophy, graduating with a first-class bachelor of arts degree and a gold medal in 1877. Henry then studied medicine at Queen's College, Belfast, where he obtained his master of arts degree in 1878. For a year he was in the London Hospital, and during a visit to Belfast in 1879, at the suggestion of one of his professors, he applied for a medical post in the Chinese imperial maritime customs service. Henry completed his medical studies as rapidly as he could, became a licentiate from the Royal College of Physicians in Edinburgh, passed the Chinese customs service examinations (for which he required a working knowledge of Chinese) and and left for China in the summer of 1881.

  • Chapter 11 Castleblayney to Wn Develop Ment P
    Monaghan County Development Plan 2013-2019 Chapter 11 Castleblayney Town Development Plan 2013-2019 11.1 Introduction The Castleblayney Town Development Plan 2013-2019 is the successor document to the Castleblayney Town Development Plan 2007-2013 and any previous plans. The Plan relates to the administrative area of Castleblayney Town Council as identified on the attached map CYDP1. This Plan should be read in conjunction with the Monaghan County Development Plan 2013-2019. This Town Development Plan has been prepared concurrently with the Plans for Monaghan County and other towns of Monaghan, Carrickmacross, Clones, and Ballybay, in an attempt to provide a more comprehensive and cohesive blue print for the development of the county as a whole. As such the land use zoning map contains zoned lands within the environs of the towns that are located within the functional area of Monaghan County Council. For the sake of clarity and to avoid repetition, these maps have not been reproduced elsewhere. They will however, in so far as they relate to lands zoned for a particular land use within the functional area of the County Council, form part of the County Development Plan 2013- 2019. It should be noted that many objectives and policies contained within the Monaghan County Development Plan will also be applicable to the Castleblayney Town Development Plan. In order to avoid repetition, common objectives and policies have not been repeated in each plan, but have in many cases, been highlighted and cross referenced by paragraph numbers and objective and policy references. In all cases however, objectives and policies contained within the Monaghan County Development Plan that relate to urban development shall apply and be considered to form part of the Castleblayney Town Development Plan, unless otherwise stated.
