    1. Major Samuel Perry, Formerly of Moycullen House, Had a Sister Who

    Moycullen Local History Quiz Number Thirteen– Answers We hope you enjoyed this quiz. 1. Major Samuel Perry, formerly of Moycullen House, had a sister who was the first woman in Europe to do what? Answer: In 1906, from Queen’s College Galway (now NUIG), Alice Jacqueline Perry (1885-1969) became the first woman in Europe to graduate with a degree in Engineering (first class honours degree in Civil Engineering). Following her father James’ death the same year, she succeeded him temporarily as County Surveyor for Galway County Council - a post he had held since before her birth. Alice was an unsuccessful candidate when the permanent appointment was made. She still remains the only woman to have served as a County Surveyor (County Engineer) in Ireland. She died in Boston, USA, where she had been working within the Christian Science movement as a poetry editor and practitioner. In 2017 NUIG named their Engineering building in her honour. (Major Samuel Perry [1879-1945] was the only brother of Alice and her four sisters, Molly, Nettie, Agnes and Martha) 2. Where in Moycullen would you find Hangman’s Hill? Answer: The hill just behind Tullokyne school, along the esker road, is known as Cnoch an Crocadóir or Hangman’s Hill or also as Cnochán an Chrochta, the Hill of the Hanging. Local lore refers to a soldier being hung on the site. 3. David Davies OBE, retired BBC TV host and former Executive Director of the English Football Association (FA) had a Moycullen born mother, what was her name? Answer: Margaret (Madge) Morrison (1913-1999), born on the Kylebroughlan corner of the village crossroads.

    Submission Re Application FS006566 for Foreshore Lease in Galway Bay

    Submission No. 301 From: Sent: 09 September 2016 09:05 To: foreshore Subject: Submission re application FS006566 for Foreshore Lease in Galway Bay 9 Sept 2016 Dear sir / Madam, I am objecting to the granting of application FS006566, “Application for a Foreshore lease for the construction of an Offshore Electricity Generating Station” for the following reasons; Firstly I have been deprived of an Environmental Impact Statement and as a result I do not have the information I require to assess the impact this development will have on the community and the wellbeing of the local and visiting tourists. Therefore I request that an Environmental Impact Study is conducted and circulated to the community before a decision is made with regards to this application. The impacts of the proposed development on the sensitive area of Galway Bay, its legally protected species and Habitats, have not been Appropriately Assessed as required by law. Ihave not been properly informed and Ihave not been consulted and included in the decision making process with regard to this application as required under the Aarhus Convention. Galway bay is known worldwide and with the Wild Atlantic Way bringing more tourists to the area which generates much needed jobs and income locally I am at a loss to understand why the impact on tourism has not been considered in this application. I am requesting that this is addressed before a decision is made with regards to this application No consideration has been given to the fact that Galway (City and County) has been selected as the European Capital of Culture for 2020.

During part of the year 1916 that I was away from school, a young teacher from Spiddal, Seoirse Ó Flaharta, just out of training, acted as substitute in Furbough school. When I returned, I took up duty there again, but the Board of Education refused to recognise me, and requested the Manager, Fr. Lally, to have a teacher appointed in my place. This, he refused to do, though he was not particularly nationally minded, but the clergy of Galway, on the whole, were very strong on the point. Then the National Board withdrew recognition entirely from the school, and refused to pay the salary of the assistant, as well as my own. The Irish National Teachers' Organisation took the matter up, and paid us both grade salary for the period of non-recognition, which extended to April, 1920. In the month of February, 1917, at four o'clock in the morning, we were all awakened by a loud knocking on the door, together with an order to get up at once. My mother opened the door, and in trooped a number of R.I.C.
