But the more I began to ponder on the historical importance of Kilmallock the more I felt unequal to the task of writing a book about it. However, as time passed, and as nobody else seemed likely to do so, I eventually decided to undertake the task. I might add that my interest in the history of Kilmallock was first awakened by the late Joe Gaffney, of Lord Edward Street, a man whose great pride in Kilmallock was matched by his knowledge of its past. I have called the book The Story of Kilmallock rather than A History of Kilmallock, for while the book is, to a very large extent, a history of Kilmallock, it also contains some material such as one does not normally find in a history book. Anecdotes, and verses from poems and songs, are introduced from time to time. My main reason for choosing the title, The Story of Kilmallock, had to do with the fact that a booklet published in connection with the opening of a new primary school for boys in Kilmallock, in 1967, bore the title Kilmallock — A Town with a Story. Because of the relatively small size of the booklet, the story of Kilmallock could only be hinted at in it, and so the story of Kilmallock still remained to be told in its entirety, or as near to entirety as would be possible. To tell that story is what l have attempted to do in this book. I am well aware that more remains to be discovered about the history of Kilmallock than what I have chronicled in the book. But I am glad I have written the book, for I think it will bring home to the people of Kilmallock, and to the people of Co. Limerick, and to the people in other parts of Ireland who may read it, just how important was this splendid Geraldine town, with its magnificent cut-stone mansions, and its towers and walls and gates, standing at what was once the crossroads of Munster. I am grateful to the very many people from whom I have received advice or information while writing the book. For their constant and invaluable support and encouragement, I would like, first of all, to thank the members of the History Book Committee of Kilmallock Historical Society: Treasa Ní Dhochartaigh, Noel Collins, Michael Donegan, Christy Murphy, Seán Naughton and John O Leary.

Níor thuigeas féin cé chomh tábhachtach is a bhí Cill Mocheallóg lá den saol go dtí gur thosaíos ar an leabhar seo a scríobh, agus go bhfaca mé go mbíodh se a lua tráth i measc bailte agus cathracha mar Chill Chainnigh, Luimneach, Chionn tSáile, Ghaillimh agus fiú Baile Átha Cliath féin. Baile Gaelach ab ea Cill Mocheallóg, ina mbíodh an Ghaeilge á labhairt ag Gaeil agus Gearaltaigh: ag Séamus Mac Muiris mhic an Iarla lá a ghéillte i bhfianaise na n-uasal Gallda; ag na filí Gaeilge a thaithíodh an baile; ag an muintir a bhaist na logainmneacha ar iliomad páirc, gort agus fearann sa pharóiste. Ta áthas orm go bhfuil scéal Chill Mocheallóg, agus scéal a mhuintire, ríofa agam sa leabhar seo. Seo, mar sin, scéal Chill Mocheallóg, Baile álainn Gearaltach in allód, Baile a creachadh is a dódh, Baile spreag laochas agus bród. Mainchín Seoighe Baile Thancaird,. La Fhéile Mocheallóg, 1987 ~ xi ~ FOREWORD The development of towns in Ireland began after the Norman settlement in the later twelfth century. Kilmallock is one of these towns, and to this day retains the shape given it by its Anglo-Norman builders, notably its cross-linear street pattern and burgage plots, many of which appear to be undisturbed since they were first alloted.

    th . World Day of Poor 19 November, 2017 No great economic success story possible as long as homelessness and other poverty crises deepen – Bishop Brendan Leahy Ireland cannot claim itself an economic success while it allows the neglect of its poor, Bishop of Limerick Brendan Leahy has stated in his letter to the people of the diocese to mark the first World Day of the Poor. The letter - read at Masses across the diocese for the official World Day of the Poor called by Pope Francis – says that with homelessness at an unprecedented state of crisis today in Ireland, it is almost unjust and unchristian to claim economic success. “Throughout the centuries we have great examples of outreach to the poor. The most outstanding example is that of Francis of Assisi, followed by many other holy men and women over the centuries. In Ireland we can think of great women such as Catherine McAuley and Nano Nagle. “Today the call to hear the cry of the poor reaches us. In our Diocese we are blessed to have the Limerick Social Services Council that responds in many ways. There are many other initiatives that reach out to the homeless, refugees, people in situations of marginalisation,” he wrote. “But none of us can leave it to be outsourced to others to do. Each of us has to do our part. Today many of us live a privileged life in the material sense compared to generations gone by, Today is Mission Sunday and the Holy Father invites all Catholics to contribute to a special needing pretty much nothing.

  • Who Was Who in Early Modern Limerick by Alan O'driscoll and Brian Hodkinson
    Who Was Who in Early Modern Limerick By Alan O'Driscoll and Brian Hodkinson The following was commenced by Alan O’Driscoll (AOD) while on a work placement in Limerick Museum in the autumn of 2012 and continued by Brian Hodkinson. It is a continuation of the Who was who in medieval Limerick, which can also be found on the Limerick Museum website. It straddles the period c 1540 to c 1700, so some figures may appear in both databases. It is compiled for the most part by using the indexes of the various sources using Limerick as the search term. However, it has been noted that these indexes are often not comprehensive, and so when sources are available online, then a scroll through the text highlighting Limerick has produced entries not in the index. Such scrolling has also found entries where place names are abviously Limerick ones but Limerick does not appear as a word, e.g. in Fiants and CPCRCI. So while I (BJH) like to think it is comprehensive, it may not be. Notes. • Where two similar names are believed to be the same person, the entries are combined. However, many repeated names appear in the same lists (particularly in the Civil Survey). Where this occurs and/or the two persons are listed as coming from a different location, they are separated, even if they are recorded at the same time. There are a great many repeated full names, such as William Bourke, and it has proved practically impossible to be sure of which of these are different people.

Member of East Limerick Brigade Flying Column. Subject. Activities of Kilfinane Company, Irish Volunteers, l914-1921, and East Limerick Flying Column, 1920-1921. Conditions, if any, Stipulated by Witness. Nil. File No S.2740. Form B.S.M.2 STATEMENT BY MR. MICHAEL HENNESSY, Dundrum,Co. Tipperary. I joined the Irish Volunteers when a company of that organisation was formed in my native place of Kilfinane, Co. Limerick, towards the end of the year of l914. I was then about twenty-one years of age. There were about thirty young men in the company, and Sean McCarthy, then resident in Kilfinane, was the company 0/C. Justin McCarthy, Sean's cousin, and Dan McCarthy were the other two officers of the company. We paraded about once or twice a week for training and drill. Foot drill was practised in a field near the town, and occasionally we went on route marches to places like Ballylanders and Glenbrohane. The training was done with wooden guns and, as far as I am aware, the company at that time possessed no effective arms. I should also mention that our company the Kilfinane company as it was then known was attached to the Galtee battalion of which, if my memory serves me right, Willie Manahan, then the creamery manager in Ardpatrick, was 0/C. My recollection of Easter Week 1916 is that the company was mobilised to parade on either Easter Sunday or Easter Monday morning, and each man was instructed to bring sufficient rations to maintain him for a couple of days.

  • The Irish Catholic Episcopal Corps, 1657 – 1829: a Prosopographical Analysis
    THE IRISH CATHOLIC EPISCOPAL CORPS, 1657 – 1829: A PROSOPOGRAPHICAL ANALYSIS VOLUME 1 OF 2 BY ERIC A. DERR THESIS FOR THE DEGREE OF PHD DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY NATIONAL UNIVERISTY OF IRELAND MAYNOOTH SUPERVISOR OF RESEARCH: DR. THOMAS O’CONNOR NOVEMBER 2013 Abstract This study explores, reconstructs and evaluates the social, political, educational and economic worlds of the Irish Catholic episcopal corps appointed between 1657 and 1829 by creating a prosopographical profile of this episcopal cohort. The central aim of this study is to reconstruct the profile of this episcopate to serve as a context to evaluate the ‘achievements’ of the four episcopal generations that emerged: 1657-1684; 1685- 1766; 1767-1800 and 1801-1829. The first generation of Irish bishops were largely influenced by the complex political and religious situation of Ireland following the Cromwellian wars and Interregnum. This episcopal cohort sought greater engagement with the restored Stuart Court while at the same time solidified their links with continental agencies. With the accession of James II (1685), a new generation of bishops emerged characterised by their loyalty to the Stuart Court and, following his exile and the enactment of new penal legislation, their ability to endure political and economic marginalisation.

By the mid-eighteenth century, the post-Jacobite generation (1767-1800) emerged and were characterised by their re-organisation of the Irish Church, most notably the establishment of a domestic seminary system and the setting up and manning of a national parochial system.
