Loughs Carra, Mask and Corrib; Resources, Borders and Passageways
Loughs Carra, Mask and Corrib; resources, borders and passageways A National Heritage Week 2020 Project by the Joyce Country and Western Lakes Heritage Network Introduction: Loughs Carra, Mask and Corrib are all connected with all their waters draining into the Atlantic Ocean. Their origins lie in the surrounding bedrock and the moving ice that dominated the Irish landscape. Today they are landscape icons, angling paradise and drinking water reservoirs but they have also shaped the communities on their shores. This project, the first of the Joyce Country and Western Lakes Heritage Network, explores the relationships that the people from the local towns and villages have had with these lakes, how they were perceived, how they were used and how they have been embedded in their history. The project consists of a series of short articles on various subjects that were composed by heritage officers of the local community councils and members of the local historical societies. They will dwell on the geological origin of the lakes, evidence of the first people living on their shores, local traditions and historical events and the inspiration that they offered to artists over the years. These articles are collated in this document for online publication on the Joyce Country and Western Lakes Geopark Project website (www.joycecountrygeoparkproject.ie) as well as on the website of the various heritage societies and initiatives of the local communities. Individual articles – some bilingual as a large part of the area is in the Gaeltacht – will be shared over social media on a daily basis for the duration of National Heritage Week.

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?

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.

Cave Notes: County Mayo, Ireland
Proc. Univ. Bristol Spelaeol. Soc., 2014, 26 (2), 185-200 CAVE NOTES: COUNTY MAYO, IRELAND by JACOB PODESTA ABSTRACT Following the 2012 visit, when wet conditions rendered many of the caves inaccessible or dangerous (Hadfield, 2013), a UBSS team visited Co. Mayo again, focusing mainly on the area in and around Cong. The caves visited are described, and new surveys are presented. INTRODUCTION It has been decided to release an updated and extended edition of the book, The Caves of County Clare and South Galway (Mullan, 2003), with additional sections on the caves of the north of Galway and of Co. Mayo in time for the Society’s centenary in 2019. The majority of the new sites are in the Cong area and two visits have so far been conducted by members of the Society, with further visits planned. The notes from the second of these trips are presented below, along with information on Quealy’s Cave, kindly provided by Tony Boycott and Pat Cronin. By linking this work with other information on the caves around Cong it is hoped that a more comprehensive overview of the region can be produced, allowing future efforts to be better directed. Complete surveys have been produced of Wolves’ Hole, Priest’s Hole, Lady’s Buttery, Horse Discovery and Bunnadober Lake Cave. With the exception of Priest’s Hole, which has no accessible water and no diving potential, all these caves have been surveyed up to the start of the diving lines in the hope being that survey data collected for the dry sections of caves can ultimately be linked with data from surveys of the dived sections.

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.

Language Notes on Baronies of Ireland 1821-1891
Database of Irish Historical Statistics - Language Notes 1 Language Notes on Language (Barony) From the census of 1851 onwards information was sought on those who spoke Irish only and those bi-lingual. However the presentation of language data changes from one census to the next between 1851 and 1871 but thereafter remains the same (1871-1891).

IV., c 99. Their origins pre-date this act, they were used in the assessments of local taxation under the Grand Juries. Over time many were split into smaller units and a few were amalgamated. Townlands and parishes - smaller units - were detached from one barony and allocated to an adjoining one at vaious intervals. This the size of many baronines changed, albiet not substantially. Furthermore, reclamation of sea and loughs expanded the land mass of Ireland, consequently between 1851 and 1861 Ireland increased its size by 9,433 acres. The census Commissioners used Barony units for organising the census data from 1821 to 1891. These notes are to guide the user through these changes. From the census of 1871 to 1891 the number of subjects enumerated at this level decreased In addition, city and large town data are also included in many of the barony tables.

Oughterard: the Local Landlords
Oughterard: The Local Landlords The parish of Oughterard and its vicinity was owned by a small number of landlords. The oldest, the O'Flahertys, had been in the area since the middle of the 13th century. The largest, the Martins, had been there since the middle of the 17th century. Others, the French St. Georges, Hodgsons and the Doigs came later, the latter two to buy out the land of those landlords who had become bankrupt during the Famine. The estates and townlands owned by the landlords and the head tenants who occupied them are given in the Griffith Valuation for the parish of Kilcummin, 1855. The landlords of Oughterard before the Famine were all resident. The O'Flahertys, the Martins of Ross and Ballinahinch and the St. Georges were originally Catholic but conformed to the Protestant or State church during the Penal Laws of the 18th century in order to hold on to their estates. The chief landlords of the parish in the 19th century were the following: Thomas B. Martin - Ballinahinch Castle Richard Martin - Clareville, Oughterard. 200,000 acres. Henry Hodgson - Currarevagh House, Oughterard and Merlin Park, Galway. 17, 064 acres. Christopher St. Gorge and Arthur French St. George - Clareville Lodge, Oughterard and Tyrone House, Kilcolgan. 15, 777 acres. John P. Nolan - Ballinderry, Tuam and Portacarron, Oughterard. 6,886 acres. Robert Martin - Ross House. 5,767 acres. Trustees of Robert Martin, Jnr. 1,789 acres. Thomas H. O'Flahertie and G. F. O'Flahertie - Lemonfield, Oughterard. 4,500 acres. Edmund O' Flaherty - Gurtrevagh, Oughterard. 2,091 acres. Colonel John Doig and Helen Doig - Clare, Oughterard.
