We are, therefore, combining the two years 1978 and 1979 in this issue, Octocentenary Eight hundred years ago two documents of the greatest importance to students of the ‘churchscape’ in the dioceses of Dublin and Glendalough, issued from the Lateran Palace in Rome. I refer to the Papal Bulls of April 20th and May 13th 1179, in which Pope Alexander III, at the request of Laurence, Archbishop of Dublin and Malchus, Bishop of Glendalough, confirmed to them their rights over the churches in their respective dioceses. These documents occur among the great number of ‘records of Church interest collected and annotated by Alen, Archbishop of Dublin, 1529-34. Collated and edited, these records are known to students of the medieval Church as “Archbishop Alen’s Register”. In the introduction to his edition, Dr. Charles McNeill calls it “one of the precious pre-Reformation records of the See of Dublin... records transcribed into it...from originals still extant in Archbishop Alen’s time...beginning in 1155 and continuing down to 1533”.

  • Dear Parishioners and Friends, God Bless Frederick
    MARCHMARCH 2019 2019 RATHMICHAEL PARISH NEWSLETTER www.rathmichael.dublin.anglican.org Dear Parishioners and friends, These are some of the less savoury bits and pieces of parish, school and wider life for each to Gosh. My last rector’s letter after 26½ years. Do I say look out for and challenge head on for everyone’s all nice things about parish ministry or do I tell the sake. truth? Whichever, I wager that few enough parishes are When I was appointed to Rathmichael Archbishop blessed with such competent people who voluntarily Donald Caird summoned me to “Marry the High take on the many tasks of administration, prayer Road and the Low Road and work assiduously on support and otherwise in a parish to keep life and soul the school.” There was only one response to that in the community. archbishop. “Yes boss”. And see how that turned out:- Being a parish rector is a peculiar old business. There is the dichotomy of needing to be as hard as nails in some situations and with some people, against hope- fully the default position of being pastoral from deep within one’s heart in other situations. Over time roots grow into one’s heart and when death or other reason rips them out it can be difficult to smile sincerely for awhile. The ‘loading’ of Small issues versus Big issues can be a frustration in ministry and school management. Where great good is being affected, there a countering evil force in the spiritual realm will be present. The opening lines of the Evening Service of Compline (page 154) are clear if a tad blunt.

  • 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.
