  • Chapter 11 Clarecastle – Port & Fishing
    Chapter 11 Clarecastle – Port & Fishing The Port of Clare, Clarecastle Port Shipping Records,Clarecastle Quay,a Clarecastle Sailing Ship Eric Shaw Fishing on the Fergus Boland’s Rock Fish-traps – located about five miles down-river from Clarecastle. photograph taken by Eric Shaw As long as the River Fergus has flowed through the parish and that people have populated its banks, the river has been a source of transport and a source of food in the form of fish. In 2004, a uniquely well-preserved complex of medieval fish-traps at Boland’s Rock* was investigated by a team from Galway University. Local fishermen had been aware of these traps that became visible at low tide but this was the first time that the wooden traps were scientifically examined. Radiocarbon dating of the timber used in the traps showed that they dated back to the late 11th to late 12th century AD. These traps may have been set by Augustian monks from Clare Abbey and Canon Island to provide food for the large number of monks and students that are linked to the abbeys. *shown on maps as Boorland’s Rocks but known locally as Boland’s Rock Net-fishing on the Fergus The boat used by the Clarecastle net-fishermen for many years was known as a gandalow, a boat design used in the Fergus and Shannon Estuaries. The drawing above of the Quay shows a gandalow on the river. The boat is keelless and with the spring in the floor, it is ideal to manoeuvre in shallow water or over the mud flats.

Eric’s article on the Great War in the book ‘Clarecastle and Ballyea - Land and People 2’ was an invaluable source of information. Eric also has been a great help to me over the past five years, with priceless information on Clare in WW1 and WW2. If that was not enough, Dr Joe Power, another historian from Clarecastle published his excellent book ‘Clare and the Great War’ in 2015.

  • Ennis Cathedral
    Ennis Cathedral: The Building & Its People. Saturday 29th. August 2009 Presented by the Clare Roots Society Clare Roots Society The Clare Roots Society, brainchild of Ennisman Larry Brennan, was formed in April 2006 as an amateur family history group. The Society meets once a month in Ennis, and has approx. 50 members. Anyone with an interest in tracing their family tree is welcome to join. Some members are experienced genealogists while others are novices in the field. In addition to local members, we have some 'virtual' members who live overseas, but who follow our activities via email, and dream that they are in Clare. Activities are advertised in local press and in the Ennis Cathedral church bulletin. Under the Chairmanship of Declan Barron and his committee of Fiona de Buitleir, Eric Shaw, Larry Brennan & Paddy Waldron, guest speakers were arranged at past meetings including Paul O’Donnell of the South Galway genealogy group, Peter Beirne of 'The Manse' Local Studies library in Ennis, Jim Herlihy on the RIC, Liam Curran on Irish Soldiers in the British Army, Jonny Dillon of the Folklore Dept., UCD, and Dr. Pat Nugent of the University of Liverpool amongst others. From our own members, speakers have included Dr. Paddy Waldron, Gerry Kennedy, Ger Madden, Declan Barron, Eric Shaw, Robert Cullen, and Larry Brennan. In addition, we have run a number of hands-on computer workshops on genealogical research and the recording of data. The society works in partnership with Clare County Library in order to add to the wonderful fund of genealogy information already available on their website www.clarelibrary.ie Our biggest project to date, completed in 2008 with the assistance of a grant from the Heritage Council of Ireland, involved transcription of the gravestones in the old Drumcliffe Cemetery.

  • The County Clare Surname Culligan
    The County Clare surname, Culligan, also written as Quilligan Author: [email protected] The author is the voluntary administrator of a Colgan surname (including Culligan) male DNA project and would welcome the participation of males who bear the Culligan surname in the study; of course, the initiative for participating in the simple, and inexpensive DNA test may be taken by female relatives or Culligan families acting collectively to cover the testing fee by FamilyTreeDNA.com. Prefatory Note Is Culligan a version of Colgan? MacLysaght writes: “Quilligan, Ó Cuileagáin - This Thomond [regional] name is equally well known in its variant form, Culligan” [McLysaght, A Guide to Irish Surnames, 1994]. In Edward MacLysaght’s Supplement to Irish Families, 1994, he wrote: “Culligan, Quilligan – Both these variants of Ó Cuileagáin are Clare names and are mainly found in that county and.. Limerick city … A century ago Culligan was much more numerous that Quilligan but the numbers are now about equal. Woulfe regards the name as an attenuated form of O’Colgan (which is said, without evidence, to be more correctly MacColgan). This implies that the sept immigrated westwards from Offaly which is to some extent corroborated by a fiant of 1588 where one of that name living in King’s County obtained a pardon. An earlier fiant shows another O’Colligan among the many O’Connors whose location is not mentioned. They were, however, well established in West Clare in the 17th century .. as Cullegane is returned in Petty’s Census as a principal name in the barony of Clonderalaw, Ennis”. This, the author’s Colgan Chronology does not include the surname Quilligan within its ambit.
