To do this, it relies on voluntary contributions from households in the parish. The Scariff News is available recommended contribution is €5 per household as a PDF fi le on the Scariff per month or €60 per household per year.

Photo by Marie O’Leary EDITORIAL It’s that time of year again when we are looking forward to the August bank holiday weekend and the Scariff Harbour Festival. It’s hard to believe that this is the tenth year of the festival: we have come a long way since that fi rst weekend in 2003. The festival highlights all that is good about Scariff and what is has to offer visitors and locals alike. It demonstrates a strong sense of community and co-operation and the fundamental prin- ciples of ensuring it is accessible to all people and promoting the link to Northern Ireland (set up through our association with Waterways Ireland) remain strong. Indeed it is an appropriate time to once again thank Waterways Ireland for its stalwart support of the festival from day one - it simply would not be possible to put on the current weekend’s programme without it. The budget for the festival weekend approaches €50,000 and the committee has tried to keep the majority of activities and events free where possible. In return it asks anyone who comes to the festival to buy a wrist band for €5 to support what is widely regarded as one of the best run and most entertaining festivals in the Mid-West region. See the full programme for the festival further on in this edition of Scariff News. The Community Council recently hosted a preview of its newly revamped website, www.scariff.ie, to an impressed audience in the Teagasc offi ce in Scariff. The website con- tains a raft of new features including an app for smartphones that will continually feed the latest news as it happens. The website has been designed by Mark O’Leary of Irish Web HQ and gives a modern and fresh look to Scariff with direct links to all forms of social media in- cluding Facebook and Twitter. The aim of the Community Council is to make this a website for all the community and already we have received lots of enquiries from clubs, societies and businesses who want to be a part of this new venture. We are offering all organisations in Scariff and the surrounding areas a page on the website. This is an ideal opportunity for small enterprises/clubs/societies, who wouldn’t have the resources to create their own website, to get their own unique page(s) on www.scariff.ie and promote themselves to a very wide audience. There is no charge whatsoever to be a part of the website. If you would like to learn more about the new site or have a page on it contact any member of the Community Council. The new website will go live before the August bank holiday weekend and will be demonstrated at the Scariff Harbour Festival. Finally the Community Council would like to say a big “well done” to everyone who has participated in the clean up of Scariff that has taken place over the last two months. The results are amazing and all the hard work hasn’t gone unnoticed: the positive comments and reactions are still fl owing!

  • 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.

    CRU/19/091 Irish Water Revenue Control - Revenue Control 3 (2020-2024) Closing Date 11th September 2019 Submission from Clare County Council Introduction Clare County Council welcomes this opportunity to comment on the document in particular under the following headings. 1. Small Towns and Villages Growth Programme. 1.1 Discharge licensing. 1.2 Rural Water Programme. 1.3 Development Plan. 2. Developer Provided Infrastructure (DPI). 3. Capital Programme Irish Water Investment Plan 2020 to 2024. 4. Recommendations. 1.0 Small Towns and Villages Growth Programme For County Clare the issue of un-sewered towns and villages is of great concern. It is preventing housing developments, commercial interest and growth of communities in rural villages and towns which is having a negative social and economic impact and leading to further depopulation in these settlements. Under Irish Water’s “Investment Plan 2020-2024 for CRU Review Appendix 2B-Stakeholder Engagement Feedback from Stage 2 “ (pages 104/105) they have elaborated on their proposals with regard to the Small Towns and Villages Growth Programme. Extract from Appendix 2B-Stakeholder Engagement Feedback. “Small Towns and Villages Growth Programme Feedback from respondents on this theme included the following: Welcome for the clarification provided that the Programme was not restricted to agglomerations above 500 PE; Concern with the response given in the Draft Investment Plan on the use of Rural Regeneration Development Fund of the NDP to provide wastewater capacity in un-sewered villages; Respondents stated their view that the proposed funding allocation methodology, based on the wastewater treatment capacity register for plants above 500 PE, would not be fair to all counties as it doesn’t consider capacity deficits in plants below 500 PE; and 105 | Irish Water | Investment Plan (2020 to 2024) for CRU Determination The importance of balanced regional development and attention to investment requirements in rural towns and villages.

  • 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.
