T: +44 (0) 20 7955 7084. On the structure of wealth-holding in pre-Famine Ireland1 Neil Cummins and Cormac Ó Gráda Keywords: inequality, wealth, Ireland JEL: N13, D31 Abstract Very little is known about wealth-holding and its distribution in Ireland in the past. Here we employ death duty register data to analyse and identify a sample of the top wealth holders in Ireland between the early 1820s and late 1830s. We examine the sources of their wealth and its regional spread, and compare them with their British counterparts. We also discuss the share of Catholics and Quakers among top wealth-holders. Introduction It seems safe to say that pre-Famine Ireland was a very unequal society, even by contemporary western European standards. Although in recent decades researchers have drawn attention to a previously ‘hidden Ireland’ of strong farmers and of a Catholic merchant class (e.g. Wall 1958; Whelan 1988; Cullen 2012), the chasm between the relatively small number of landowners who owned virtually all the land and the three million of so rural dwellers who relied almost solely on the potato for subsistence resonates more of serfdom than of industrialising Britain. Still, little is known about the wealth of the elite, and even contemporary Irish critics of wealth inequality in pre-Famine Ireland, such as William Thompson and Feargus O’Connor, had little insight into how great that inequality was (D’Arcy 1994; Large 1966).

LIMITED. PREFATORY NOTE. iiST'T'jf.O An attempt has been made in the following pages to put on record what can be discovered concerning the descendants of two Irish families which became allied in 1737 by the marriage of the Rev. Andrew Nixon with Mariaime French. The various families detailed on pp. 83-127, are descended from that marriage. The PubHc Record Office contains evidence of the existence of many other persons of the names of French and Nixon, who, from the localities in which they lived, were very probably of the same stock, but as no proof of their relationship has been forthcoming, as a rule they have not been mentioned in the book. It has been found necessary to condense the work as much as possible, and to leave out some biographical details which might have been inserted. I have tried in most instances to give chiefly those which come from unfamiliar sources. The evidence for the earlier generations in the 17th and 18th centuries is in almost every case clear and complete.

Moving into the latter part of the First World war centennial period, it is time to consolidate those documents and to add the wealth of information and photographs since the last one was published.

  • Extracts Relating to the Zulu War of 1879
    EXTRACTS RELATING TO THE ZULU WAR OF 1879 From THE GRAPHIC, AN ILLUSTRATED WEEKLY NEWSPAPER, JANUARY TO DECEMBER 1879 EDITOR’S NOTE The extracts in the following pages were made during 2003/4 from my complete collection of original editions of The Graphic, covering the period January to December 1879. Care has been taken to extract every reference having a bearing, directly or indirectly, on the Zulu War. The spelling of personal and place names is the same as used in the original, but there has also been a very wide variety of general spellings, from various journalists. So, for the purpose of clarification of place names, a list of their modern equivalent is set out below. By way of an appendix I have included a treatise on The Zulu Army compiled in 1879 by direction of Lord Chelmsford. A copy of which was made available to me by courtesy of the Durban Municipal Library. It is hoped that a further file of The Graphic pictures can be added to this section in due course.

    Plms 9/7/04 9:00 am Page i general editor John M. MacKenzie Established in the belief that imperialism as a cultural phenomenon had as significant an effect on the dominant as on the subordinate societies, Studies in Imperialism seeks to develop the new socio-cultural approach which has emerged through cross-disciplinary work on popular culture, media studies, art history, the study of education and religion, sports history and children’s literature. The cultural emphasis embraces studies of migration and race, while the older political and constitutional, economic and military concerns are never far away. It incorporates comparative work on European and American empire-building, with the chronological focus primarily, though not exclusively, on the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, when these cultural exchanges were most powerfully at work.

  • Celts, Catholics ^—^Copperheads
    BY JOSEPH M . HERNON, JR. CELTS, ^y CATHOLICS ^—^COPPERHEADS Ireland, Views the American Civil War OHIO STATE U N 1 V !• H S 1 T Y PRESS $6.25 CELTS, CATHOLICS, AND COPPERHEADS IRELAND VIEWS THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR By Joseph M. Hernon, Jr. The principal topic of public interest in Ireland between 1861 and 1865 was indis­ putably the American Civil War. The emi­ gration of large numbers of Irishmen to the New World in the two decades before the war had established strong ties of both affec­ tion and blood between the two nations; and the Irish had, more importantly, come to recognize a close parallel between their own recent political history and that of the United States. The Anglo-Irish Act of Union of 1800, which had abolished the Dublin parliament, had sharply divided the Irish citizenry into two main camps of political opinion: the unionists, who opposed the separation of Ireland from Great Britain; and the nation­ alists, who advocated self-determination or independence for Ireland. That some rep­ resentatives of these two factions should be sympathetic, respectively, to the struggles of the American North to preserve the threat­ ened Union, and of the American South to establish its sovereign independence, was doubtless inevitable. Many of the national­ ists were able to combine a feeling for the southern rebellion with a particularly strong hostility toward American abolitionism. But perfect concordances between domes­ tic and American issues were possible for only a portion of the articulate Irish public. Irish unionism was itself fractured into sev­ eral groups—at the two extremes a small party of social Radicals and a far larger band of conservative Whigs; and if the Radicals could look with equal hope to the American Union for emancipation of the Negro, and to the Empire for an enlightened progressivism, the more reactionary union­ ists would be by no means displeased at the break-up of the old rebel Republic.
