Introduction Civil registration of births, marriages and deaths commenced in Ireland in 1864, though registration of marriages of non‐Roman Catholics was introduced earlier in 1845. The Births, marriages and deaths were registered by geographical areas known as Registration Districts (also known as Superintendent Registrar’s Districts). The boundaries of the registration districts followed the boundaries of the Poor Law Unions created earlier under the 1838 Poor Law Act for the administration of relief to the poor. Each Poor Law Union (PLU) was divided into Dispensary Districts, and again these boundaries were followed to form the sub‐districts or Registrar’s Districts into which the registration district was subdivided. The PLUs did not follow county boundaries and so registration districts and sub‐districts can lie in two or even three counties. Nor do they respect the boundaries of civil parishes. This finding aid is intended to assist research in the civil registration records particularly in the nineteenth century. The detailed listings of registration districts and sub‐districts and the counties in which they lie are for 1871, and hence capture the early period of civil registration. There were some changes to boundaries over the years, as some of the original PLUs were subdivided to form additional PLUs, and later some were abolished as a result of dwindling populations. An attempt has been made to list significant boundary changes that took place between 1841 and 1911.

  • The Castlecomer Plateau
    23 The Castlecomer plateau By T. P. Lyng, N.T. HE Castlecomer Plateau is the tableland that is the watershed between the rivers Nore and Barrow. Owing T to the erosion of carboniferous deposits by the Nore and Barrow the Castlecomer highland coincides with the Castle­ comer or Leinster Coalfield. Down through the ages this highland has been variously known as Gower Laighean (Gabhair Laighean), Slieve Margy (Sliabh mBairrche), Slieve Comer (Sliabh Crumair). Most of it was included within the ancient cantred of Odogh (Ui Duach) later called Ui Broanain. The Normans attempted to convert this cantred into a barony called Bargy from the old tribal name Ui Bairrche. It was, however, difficult territory and the Barony of Bargy never became a reality. The English labelled it the Barony of Odogh but this highland territory continued to be march lands. Such lands were officially termed “ Fasach ” at the close of the 15th century and so the greater part of the Castle­ comer Plateau became known as the Barony of Fassadinan i.e. Fasach Deighnin, which is translated the “ wi lderness of the river Dinan ” but which officially meant “ the march land of the Dinan.” This no-man’s land that surrounds and hedges in the basin of the Dinan has always been a boundary land. To-day it is the boundary land between counties Kil­ kenny, Carlow and Laois and between the dioceses of Ossory, Kildare and Leighlin. The Plateau is divided in half by the Dinan-Deen river which flows South-West from Wolfhill to Ardaloo. The rim of the Plateau is a chain of hills averag­ ing 1,000 ft.

Elements of the story are told through the records of Anglo-Irish witnesses to the lives of my family and their neighbours, documents detailing the harsh existence of a people living on the edge of the Atlantic. I have taken liberties with those records, some of which make uncomfortable reading, reducing the native Irish to little more than another species, using imagination and memory to embellish the documents, sometimes creating false trails, weaving a new story from fragments that draw me closer to my mother. 3 Cathy Galvin – an extract from The Missing Sixth THE FIRST SXTH: ENTITLEMENT I CHARLES BROWNE MD. ETHNOLOGIST. AN ENCOUNTER WITH AN IRISH CHILD Photographs in the archive of Trinity College, Dublin, reveal Charles Browne to be a bowler-hatted gentleman touring south Connemara in the protective company of two policemen, a dispassionate observer of the people inhabiting the remote islands and surrounding coastal hamlets in the 1890s.

  • Ballaghaderreen and the Mayo-Roscommon Boundary
    ..;.. BALLAGHADERREEN AND THE MAYO-ROSCOMMON BOUNDARY h Map Location of Ballaa:haderreen: In 1824 the British Parliament authorised a survey of the whole island of Ireland, at a scale of six inches to one mile. This undertaking was entrusted to the military Board of Ordnance, and the survey became known as the Ordnance Survey. The beautiful 6" maps, produced as a ,result of the survey, were published over the years 1833 to 1846. The maps for County Roscommon appeared in 1837; those for County Mayo in 1838. If one wishes to find the map of the Ballaghaderreen area in that first Ordnance Survey, one turns to Mayo, sheet 74. After the first survey, the Ordnance Survey - as the surveying body became known - continued the work of mapping the country. It produced maps at different scales, and it published revisions of earlier maps. A major revision of the original 6" maps took place in the early years of this century. If one wishes to find the map of Ballaghaderreen area in this edition, one must now tum to Roscommon, sheet 8. Clearly by that time Ballaghaderreen had moved to County Roscommon. The Ordnance Survey does not, of course, decide the county boundaries. It simply follows the boundaries laid down by the bodies, who organise local government in the country. These bodies, sometime near the end of the last century, decided that the boundary between Counties Mayo and Roscommon should be re-drawn, so as to bring the Ballaghaderreen area from Mayo into Roscommon. Since the boundary was over three hundred years old at that time, it seems of interest to ask who made the change, and why they made it.
