Contextual and Historical the Irish for Belturbet: Béal Tairbirt, Meaning "Mouth of the Tairbert’’
Belturbet Public Art Commission: Contextual and Historical The Irish for Belturbet: Béal Tairbirt, meaning "mouth of the Tairbert’’. It is located on the River Erne, which is linked to the Shannon-Erne Waterway and the River Shannon The Shannon is the longest river in Ireland. The Erne is also connected to the Black Pig’s Dyke. The Erne has long been the main source of commerce for the town. It once contained three ports and was linked to Belfast via the Ulster Canal. It contains many exesting features and connections that are historic record. Today the river and the town of Belturbet is predominantly a tourist destination. The original steering wheel off the Steamship Belturbet is displayed in the main reception area in the Belturbet Railway Centre as a memento to the steamships that sailed the Erne in the 1800s’. The wheel also commerates the connection with the railways. The various vessels carried goods and passengers on a regular service between Belturbet and Enniskillen. On occasions excursions were operated in conjunction with the G.N.R. Railway. Special excursion trains operated from Amian St. Station in Dublin to Belturbet where passengers boarded the steamship at the Quay, downstream of Killconny Bridge. The rope wear marks can still be seen on the bollards. When the Anglo-Normans tried to conquer Cavan in the early 13th century, Walter de Lacy built a motte-and-bailey on Turbet Island, which is situated upstream of Killconny Bridge. The Fort was probably made of wood and it has not survived. However the steep mound of earth where it was built is well preserved. -

The Life and Times of Captain William Flack
The Life and Times of Captain William Flack The story of a remarkable man who survived and prospered despite the momentous odds he and his wife Lucy faced in their lives. The Life and Times of William Flack (1810-1892) How can we begin to understand the lives of our ancestors without knowing something of the social and economic conditions in which they lived? In the following story (with family history records included), I hope to visit the life and times of my Great Great Grandfather, William Flack so as to gain some insight into his life in the context of the social conditions and historical events of his times. This essay tours the social and political environment in which he lived in the County Cavan community in the early 1800s and then describes the events that impacted on his 21 years in the British Army and his “retirement” years in Burnley, Lancashire. The sources are noted where appropriate and a Bibliography is included at the end. William Flack came from Bailieborough, County Cavan, Ulster William Flack was born on 1 April 1810 in or near the town of Bailieborough in Cavan, then a part of Ulster which had been under British rule since the 17th Century and governed through an Irish Parliament based in Dublin. In 1800, the Act of Union abolished the Irish Parliament and allowed for the election of 100 Irish members to the Westminster Parliament. Before the Plantation of Ulster, the area that became Bailieborough was known as Killechally, Killycolly and Killycollie (Irish: Coill an Chollaigh, meaning "forest of boar"). -

Revitalising Cavan's Towns and Villages
BLACKLION Revitalising Cavan’s Towns and Villages History The original name of the village was Largay meaning a hillside and was changed to Blacklion in honour of a famous inn in the village. A stone cairn, a burial cist and two stone cashels are all within the townland, giving evidence of early habitation. Blacklions urban growth was hampered until the mid- 19th century by the nearby village of Red Lion. During The Troubles Blacklion as a main border crossing was home to a joint Irish Army/Garda Siochana checkpoint.
