Fr Francis Centenary of the Dedication of Keenagh Church Bishop John Fleming Nephin has overshadowed the religious aspirations of the people of North Mayo and, in particular, those who lived their lives in the area surrounding Keenagh Church, for ever. It has seen the journey from paganism to Christianity and it has witnessed the development of the Christian tradition over the past sixteen hundred years. Thaunacran has a special place in all of this. The old church, in which people worshipped from Penal times until the early twentieth century, withstood, as the late Canon Anthony McHale, said, ‘the fierce storms that beat against the Nephin hills’ until such time that it became ‘a crumbling ruin, sapped by the inevitable erosion of time’. The challenges which faced the Parish of Crossmolina one hundred years ago were very great. The parish church in Crossmolina was in need of repair at that time, as was the church in Kilmurray. The population around Keenagh church was small, one hundred and fifty households in all, and their ability to contribute was limited, due to the stark economic circumstances in which they lived. Add to this the increased building cost which re- sulted from the outbreak of the Great War, 1914-1918. However, the determination of the parishioners, together with the generosity of those who had emigrated all over the world, ensured that Keenagh Church was built and paid for. One hundred years later we can celebrate this centenary. In doing so we remember with gratitude the commitment and generosity of those who built this church. We recall all those who were welcomed into the Christian commu- nity of this parish in this church during the past one hundred years. New families were formed at the weddings of so many people before this altar and families were left in sadness as they said a fond farewell to those whose fu- neral Mass was said here. Indeed, very many of the important moments of the lives of this community over the past one hundred years have been marked here. Looking to the future. While clouds gather once more over Nephin, with the shortage of vocations and the decline in the population of this area, some bright light also emerges. The willingness of parishioners to assume responsi- bility for the maintenance of their churches will allow priests to leave a good deal of administration aside. Their support of their priests will also allow priests the freedom to focus on our spiritual and pastoral ministry. With the commitment and understanding of the people of church areas such as this, with God’s help, this church will serve the needs of the people of this area for many years to come. + Bishop John PAGE 4 HOLY SOULS KEENAGH CENTENARY Keenagh New Church Parish of Crossmolina The Priests and People of a poor district, yet the fierce storms that of Keenagh, Parish of worthy in some fashion beat against the Nephin Crossmolina, have un- of the honour due to hills.

  • 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. Through the creation of a prosopographical database, this study has nuanced and reconstructed the historical profile of the Jacobite episcopal corps and has shown that the Irish episcopate under the penal regime was not only relatively well-organised but was well-engaged in reforming the Irish church, albeit with limited resources. 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.

We benefit again from an exceptional welcome from the Casements of Port Chluain Eoghain on what is a special day for the club and ourselves as a county. Having hosted the club’s first ever national league fixture last week, which seen a healthy victory for our senior hurlers against Meath, we are delighted to return today for perhaps our most important match of the year against Limerick. Moving Day is a term sometimes used in American sports to describe the critical day in a league campaign, where games of determinative significance take place which will have a bearing on the final league places. Today is such a day for both of our senior teams. We welcome Limerick today who are unbeaten in the league and rightly sit at the top of the table, however we have targeted maximum return from our home fixtures so today is a must win. Victory today will place us one point behind Limerick, heading into the last two games, away to Wicklow on 15th March and finishing at home against Waterford a week later on 22nd March. Second place in the league will secure a place in the league final at Croke Park. Limerick also still have to play Wexford who have won their last 3 games since losing to us on day one, so it is all to play for.

McAnlis Reg.1994 All rights reserved. No part of this publication may be copied, reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means, without permission of the author/publisher FOREWORD Revised for Vol. 3, I-J-K-L-M-N-O Before diving into the Consolidated Index itself, a few words of explanation are probably in order. Those readers who have not yet had occasion to dip into the holdings of the Genealogical Office will, of course, not understand why a consolidated index is necessary. Those of you who are trying to follow a family through the Manuscripts, however, will hopefully find this consolidation a happy shortcut to discovering where information on a given surname is likely to be found. Also, since issuing Volume 1, A-B-C, some problems have been solved, and other problems have appeared. Friends who have become aware of this project have commented that this is a repository that is largely misunderstood as to its value to the researcher in family history. It is true that the body of records was gathered primarily for the benefit, originally, of the Kings of Arms to determine heraldic rights. However, there is a great deal of value and interest to the family history researcher, whether or not you believe the individuals to be titled.

Tribute to John MacHale by T. Sullivan, St. Patrick’s Day, 1876. Preface A long process is now over. It has been hard work and it has been a lot of fun! I would like to thank some people, without whom, this process would have been far less inspiring: First and foremost, I would like to thank my supervisor, Professor William H. Hubbard, Ph.D. for secure guidance and support. I would also like to thank, from the bottom of my heart, Sissel Rosland, who has given me unlimited amounts of time, interest and expertise. I am also most grateful to Birte for reading, discussing, criticising and encouraging my work. I would like to thank the professors and students who have participated on seminars for vitalising and revitalising my work on various levels in my progression. Thank you, Veronika, for walking through stormy weather to read my manuscript, and thank you, Irene, for being the technical wizard that you are. Feelings of gratitude also go to my mother, who has the unique quality of always asking the right question. And last, but far from least, I want to thank you, Tom, for support and sympathy. Without you by my side, this would have been a far more exhausting process!
