Photo by Marie O’Leary EDITORIAL So another summer season is almost passed and it certainly has been one of the bet- ter ones in recent years. There were several reasons to be positive this year and Scariff has enjoyed some of those moments. The good weather this year has obviously been a major contributing factor to that positivity and after a few years of truly awful sum- mers it was great to see people enjoying a couple of glorious weeks of sunshine in July. It is amazing how the weather has such a profound effect on our wellbeing and those positive effects were in full flow this summer. The good weather also encour- ages more people to holiday at home and it seemed there were more tourists about this year, with huge crowds thronging Mountshannon and Two Mile Gate and a big increase in the number of boats using the Harbour in Scariff. After another very cold and wet spring, the warm weather provided much needed respite for the farming community and Scariff was a hub of activity this summer with mowers, wrappers and balers whizzing through the town late into the long summer evenings making the most of the sunshine and dry conditions. It certainly brought home to a lot of people how integral a part of life in Scariff farming still is. Hopefully fodder supplies for the upcoming winter are well replenished and farmers are well stocked to cover any extended inclement weather conditions. The summer gone has been a great one for sport and hopefully it isn’t over just yet! Af- ter the great spectacle that was the London Olympics all attention has turned to hurl- ing, both at local and county level. There have been some great local successes in both camogie and hurling, especially in the underage divisions, but it is the roller coaster of Clare’s championship campaign that has thrilled and delighted us all. Scariff has been awash with the Banner colours for the last few weeks in the build up to the All Ireland and, as we go to print, the final replay against Cork is nearly upon us. Regardless of the outcome of that encounter, we can all be proud of the manner in which Davy Fitzger- ald and his charges have represented Clare over the last few months. Summer 2013 saw another slew of successful events in Scariff such as the Scariff Har- bour Festival in early August. This year’s festival was regarded by many as the best one yet and the number of visitors to Scariff over that weekend was truly amazing. The festival certainly has grown into a very significant show case for East Clare over the last couple of years. See further on in this edition for a report and some photos from the Festival. The Scariff Show had a hugely enjoyable day on August 31st and the Com- munity Council Scariff 10K the following day attracted another very good turnout. A lot of voluntary time and commitment goes into the organising and running of these events and it is great that they are so well supported by the local community. Now the kids are back to school and the evenings are starting to close in that bit earlier. As autumn sets in things seem to quieten down a little but we still have many events to look forward to at this time of year. The East Clare Walking festival takes place this October and the Scariff senior hurlers are back in action in the championship also SCARIFF NEWS 3 EDITORIAL / NEWS IN BRIEF in early October.

  • History of Borrisokane ,Co.Tipperary
    History of Borrisokane ,Co.Tipperary. ‘Introduction’ What better way to begin an account of a Tipperary town than by referring to the following words of a poem called ‘Tipperary‘.In these lines, the poet ‘ Eva of the Nation‘ who was one of the Kellys of Killeen, Portumna,wrote: ‘O come for a while among us,and give us a friendly hand, And you‘ll see that old Tipperary is a loving and gladsome land; From Upper to Lower Ormond bright welcome and smiles will spring, On the plains of Tipperary,the stranger is like a king?‘ Yes, I think the words ring true,I`m sure, for us and about us,natives of this part of Irish soil?? It is about one particular spot ‘on the plains of Tipperary‘ that I wish to write, namely my home parish of Borrisokane?? . So I turn again to verse, which so often suggests things that mere prose cannot? In a book of poetry, ‘The Spirit of Tipperary‘ published many years ago by the Nenagh Guardian,we find a poem by Dermot F ?Gleeson who for many years was District Justice in Nenagh.He wrote under the pen-name ‘Mac Liag‘ . He writes as if from the top of Lisgorrif Hill looking down on the broad expanse of the two Ormonds with Lough Derg bordering them to the left? .The poem is simply called, ‘The place where I was born’ ‘O’er hill and mountain, vale and town, My gaze now wanders up and down, Anon my heart is filled with pride, Anon with memory’s gentler tide ‘ Of sorrow, until through them all The twilight whispers softly call From upland green and golden corn “It is the place where you were born”.

  • GREENBOYS 1828 Saw Considerable Unrest in Ireland. Daniel O Connell
    GREENBOYS 1828 saw considerable unrest in Ireland. Daniel O Connell, member of Parliament for Clare, was at the height of his power and influence. After the Act of Union in 1801, Catholics had expected that Emancipation would soon follow. They had been promised that the last of the Penal Laws, which prevented Catholics from becoming Members of Parliament would be abolished, but it was becoming increasingly obvious that the English Government, particularly the House of Lords, and George III had no intention of yielding to the growing demands for Emancipation and civil and religious liberty.. In 1823, Daniel O' Connell formed the Catholic Association ,which organised great open-air meetings and marches with the aim of forcing the Government to grant Catholic Emancipitation.’ On Sunday, September 21 st. 1828, a huge crowd of men and women from Tipperary, Kilkenny, Laois and parts of Offaly, met and paraded through the town of Roscrea decorated with green hats, sashes and ribbons. Before they dispersed, these “Green Boys” and “Green Girls”, decided that on the following Sunday, they would hold a monster meeting at Shinrone ‘famous for its uncompromising Orange and anti-Catholic feelings (Cooke Page 113) They hoped to demonstrate to the Orangemen there, the resolve of the people of North Tipperary, Offaly and the surrounding counties to secure their legitimate rights and prove what an united determined force could accomplish. ‘In the late 18th. and 19th. centuries relations between Catholics and Protestants in the Killaloe diocese were generally non-contentious , apart from the strong Orange area in the neighbourhood of Shinrone’ (The Diocese of Killaloe in the 18th.

  • 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.

  • Church of Ireland Parish Registers
    National Archives Church of Ireland Parish Registers MICROFILMS This listing of Church of Ireland parochial registers covers all those parishes for which microfilms of registers (then kept in original custody) exist. In many instances the original parochial registers may now be with the Representative Church Body Library in Braemor Park, Churchtown, Dublin 14 – http://www.ireland.anglican.org/. Filming was carried out in the 1950s and again in the 1980s by staff of the Public Record Office of Ireland. This systematic programme of microfilming Church of Ireland registers was undertaken to make parochial registers more accessible to the general research public. The most comprehensive filming was undertaken in the eastern part of the country. In the Reading Room of the National Archives there is a card index detailing all filmed parish registers and records detailing nature of record, covering dates and acquisition number (this covers the 1950s filming only). For the 1980s filming there are bound finding aids for the Diocese of Dublin, Ferns, Kildare and Meath in the Reading Room. These films cover parish registers as well as other classes of material found in registers. However, more modern records were not covered by the filming projects. The cut-off date of the films has always been c.1870 (ie the Disestablishment of the Church of Ireland) as records post-1870 are not covered by the Public Record Office of Ireland or National Archives of Ireland legislation though there are some instances of filming carrying on beyond 1870. The Microfilm List included here is a guide to microfilm reference numbers only and is no guide to content.

  • Clare Castle & Ballyea
    Clare Castle & Ballyea The Parish Remembers by Eric Shaw Clare Roots Society 2011 Clare Castle & Ballyea The Parish Remembers Clare Roots Society was formed in 2006 to provide a forum for family history and genealogical research in County Clare. The Society has undertaken research in many parts of the County. As a native of Clare Castle and member of the Society, I feel that it is opportune to make the results of research pertaining to the Parish available to the people of Clare Castle and Ballyea. © Eric Shaw 2011 – 2nd Edition I dedicate this publication to my wife Breda who assisted in recording many of the gravestone inscriptions, to our children Anne and Aidan, and our Grandchildren, Stephen, Chloe, Aoife & Seán. The water-colour above of the Semple Bridge and the Castle was painted by Fr. Edward Fitzgerald, C. C. Clare Castle 1950- 1955. It was presented by him on his leaving the Village in 1955 to Margaret & Frank Power of Main Street (courtesy of Francis Power) The back cover features a drawing of the Lyons grave of 1816 in Killow Cemetery by Hilary Gilmore 1 INTRODUCTION This publication provides an invaluable record of parish gravestone inscriptions and complements the digitalising of our parish records, which is now underway. As gravestones deteriorate with the passage of time this record will preserve parish gravestone details for this and future generations. Parishioners at home, our diaspora and the public at large will benefit greatly from the preservation of family gravestone inscriptions. The Parish is indebted to Eric Shaw and the Clare Roots Society for their outstanding contributions in bringing this publication to fruition.

PREFACE. 1 HAVE condensed into this little volume a consi- derable part of the local etymologies contained in " The Origin and History of Irish Names of Places." 1 have generally selected those names that are best known through the country, and I have thought it better to arrange them in alpha- betical order. The book has been written in the hope that it may prove useful, and perhaps not uninteresting, to those who are anxious for information on the subject, but who have not the opportunity of perusing the larger volume. Soon after the appearance of "The Origin and History of Irish Names of Places," I received from correspondents in various parts of Ireland communications more or less valuable on the topo- graphy, legends, or antiquities of their respective localities. I take this opportunity of soliciting further information from those who are able to give it, and who are anxious to assist in the advancement of Irish literature. IRISH LOCAL NAMES EXPLATKED.
