Reproductive Loan Fund Lending to the ‘Industrious Poor’ Clans and Surnames Conference, 17 May 2017 What were the Loan Funds • In the period just before the Great Hunger of the 1840s there were more than 300 independent loan funds making small loans available to the Irish poor. • One fifth of the households of Ireland were borrowers from these funds each year, making them one of the most successful microfinance initiatives anywhere in the world. • So what information can be garnered from these funds, why were they established, what can it tell us about Irish life in this era, and what is available for Genealogists? Loan Fund in Ireland • After the famines of the 1820s surplus charitable donations of c. £55,000 were provided to loan associations in the counties worst affected. • Loan funds were independent, charitably-funded organisations lending in their regions. • Loan amounts were from £1 to £10 (average £3), repayable over 20 weeks. • Regulation of many funds, such as it was, from 1837, was through the ‘Loan Fund Board’. • A distinct, unregulated, micro-credit scheme called the ‘Irish Reproductive Loan Fund’ was also established to provide loans to the industrious poor. Roscommon Journal and Western Impartial Reporter, 21 May 1836, advertising their fund. - In 1836, half of the 2,849 borrowers from one Co Mayo fund were small farmers with close to one quarter being weavers & spinners. - While the intent may have been to lend for industry, funds were called upon to meet rent, at high interest rates, and to those had little understanding of money.

  • The List of Church of Ireland Parish Registers
    THE LIST of CHURCH OF IRELAND PARISH REGISTERS A Colour-coded Resource Accounting For What Survives; Where It Is; & With Additional Information of Copies, Transcripts and Online Indexes SEPTEMBER 2021 The List of Parish Registers The List of Church of Ireland Parish Registers was originally compiled in-house for the Public Record Office of Ireland (PROI), now the National Archives of Ireland (NAI), by Miss Margaret Griffith (1911-2001) Deputy Keeper of the PROI during the 1950s. Griffith’s original list (which was titled the Table of Parochial Records and Copies) was based on inventories returned by the parochial officers about the year 1875/6, and thereafter corrected in the light of subsequent events - most particularly the tragic destruction of the PROI in 1922 when over 500 collections were destroyed. A table showing the position before 1922 had been published in July 1891 as an appendix to the 23rd Report of the Deputy Keeper of the Public Records Office of Ireland. In the light of the 1922 fire, the list changed dramatically – the large numbers of collections underlined indicated that they had been destroyed by fire in 1922. The List has been updated regularly since 1984, when PROI agreed that the RCB Library should be the place of deposit for Church of Ireland registers. Under the tenure of Dr Raymond Refaussé, the Church’s first professional archivist, the work of gathering in registers and other local records from local custody was carried out in earnest and today the RCB Library’s parish collections number 1,114. The Library is also responsible for the care of registers that remain in local custody, although until they are transferred it is difficult to ascertain exactly what dates are covered.

Now that we are well into the winter months why don’t you spend an afternoon or morning with us brushing up on your research. We have added a number of resources over the last twelve months and Martin Hopkins with the aid of his accomplice Paul Wiseman have been adding additional CD and DVDs to the computer network so that they may be directly accessed without the need for finding, inserting and starting the programs from their original source. After the early chill wears off our heated research room is a great place to spend a winters day. Our computer network over time has evolved into one that most larger metro based organisations would be proud to have, while we as a group have grown to rival all but the biggest of metropolitan groups. We must thank a small band of volunteers for this work, those already named above as well as a few helpers from the group and the expert assistance of Wolf Ciemcioch from Communications and Business Services in Bairnsdale who provides all of the top level technical assistance we require from time to time at an unbelievably low cost to us.

  • The List of Church of Ireland Parish Registers
    THE LIST of CHURCH OF IRELAND PARISH REGISTERS A Colour-coded Resource Accounting For What Survives; Where It Is; & With Additional Information of Copies, Transcripts and Online Indexes The List of Parish Registers The List of Church of Ireland Parish Registers was originally compiled in-house for the Public Record Office of Ireland (PROI), now the National Archives of Ireland (NAI), by Miss Margaret Griffith (1911-2001) Deputy Keeper of the PROI during the 1950s. Griffith’s original list (which was titled the Table of Parochial Records and Copies) was based on inventories returned by the parochial officers about the year 1875/6, and thereafter corrected in the light of subsequent events - most particularly the tragic destruction of the PROI in 1922 when over 500 collections were destroyed. A table showing the position before 1922 had been published in July 1891 as an appendix to the 23rd Report of the Deputy Keeper of the Public Records Office of Ireland. In the light of the 1922 fire, the list changed dramatically – the large numbers of collections underlined indicated that they had been destroyed by fire in 1922. The List has been updated regularly since 1984, when PROI agreed that the RCB Library should be the place of deposit for Church of Ireland registers. Under the tenure of Dr Raymond Refaussé, the Church’s first professional archivist, the work of gathering in registers and other local records from local custody was carried out in earnest and today the RCB Library’s parish collections number over 1100. The Library is also responsible for the care of registers that remain in local custody, although until they are transferred it is difficult to ascertain exactly what dates are covered.
