  • The Women Were Worse Than the Men: Crime and Society in Dublin During 1916
    The Women were Worse than the Men: Crime and Society in Dublin during 1916 The mobs that looted Dublin’s city centre in 1916 have entered the mythology of the Rising just as robustly as the Irish Volunteers and Irish Citizen Army and, as far as I am aware, it was the only occasion in the history of the capital, and possibly Ireland, when more women were convicted of criminal offences than men, hence the title of this talk. However I also want to say something about the wider impact the First World War had on crime in the city The Easter Rising made Dublin unique in the United Kingdom in that it was the only city where fighting took place and the general breakdown in law and order created new opportunities for breaking the law, just as the Defence of the Realm Act that was passed on the outbreak of the Great War created new laws to break. The incidence of serious crime by juvenile gangs, often abetted by adults, such as housebreaking and robbery of coal trains, became commonplace, along with fraudulent claims for separation allowances, theft of military property and greatly increased desertion rates from the British armed forces. At the same time the large scale recruitment of young adult males from working class districts into the armed forces saw a reduction in the pool of potential adult offenders and a decline in the population of Mountjoy Prison. But to return to the looters: newspapers characterised them in vivid terms that are remembered to this day. The Irish Times, which managed to publish almost uninterruptedly throughout the fighting, reported on Tuesday, 25 April, 1916, that on the previous night ‘Shop windows in North Earl Street were smashed, and the shops were looted.

  • Winter Conference 2017
    WINTER CONFERENCE 2017 PSYCHOSIS, SOMATIZATION & SOCIETY 16TH & 17TH NOVEMBER DUNBOYNE CASTLE HOTEL, CO MEATH 13.5 external CPD credits (Thursday: 7.5 credits Friday 6 credits) WELCOME Dear colleagues Our College is growing and so is our conference. Both depend on the spirit of volunteerism of our members. Much of the planning, organisation and inspiration of the conference has been achieved by members in their own time. I would especially like to thank the conference academic committee, who guided me and tolerated crackly teleconference lines! My wish for the conference is that the spirit of volunteerism begins to see rewards from the College. I hope the programme will help us work towards a greater understanding of where we are as a profession, and in turn, enhance the College's ability to advocate on our behalf and our patients. As at all conferences, there is informal networking. Hopefully this will develop into a formal network with the ability to use the conference and College structures to achieve what psychiatry in Ireland needs to be excellent. In the future, I would like to continue a number of themes, particularly through the parallel sessions. Professional Competence for a while now has been a permanent slot. I'm hoping that Ethics, Law and a session on how to support our own mental health will also be regular topics on the programme. The poster exhibition is another fixed slot which I think works well as an opportunity to showcase and explore psychiatry beyond service provision. There has been discussion about changing the format of the poster display and I'd welcome any suggestions.

  • 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.

  • The Irish Jewish Route
    BS”D THE IRISH JEWISH ROUTE Welcome to Ireland – or as they say here, Fáilte go hÉireann! Jews have had a presence in Ireland for close to 1000 years, with the earliest mentions occurring in the Annals of Innisfallen of 1079. Small communities would pop up, develop and expire throughout the middle ages, mainly in and around Dublin, but also in other port cities, such as Cork and Limerick. It was not until the 18th and 19th centuries that a stronger Jewish presence was able to establish itself, and in 1892, Dublin Hebrew Congregation was founded on Adelaide Road. In the 20th century, the Jewish community rose to 5,000, with over a half-dozen synagogues at its peak in the early 1950s. However, due to economic migration, the community declined to about 1800 by the early 1990s. Since then, it has slowly and steadily grown to about 2000, and held there. However, the composition of the community is changing, with 30% having arrived within the last 10 years alone. The Jewish community, in its manner and organization, is very similar to what you might find elsewhere around the British Isles, and the largest Orthodox synagogue, Dublin Hebrew Congregation, now located in Terenure, affiliates informally with the British United Synagogue. There is a smaller and older “shtibl”-type shul, Machzikei Hadass, that has remained independent since its founding in 1883. The chief Orthodox congregation in town is Dublin Hebrew Congregation (32 Rathfarnham Rd, Terenure, Dublin 6 (Dublin Bus routes: 16, 17; other nearby Top Tips for DHC visitors: stops include: 49, 15, 15a, 15b, 65, 65b) DHC has services 7 days a week.

  • GLASNEVIN CEMETERY BEING a RECORD of IRELAND's Hcflqms DEAD in DUBLIN CITY and COUNTY ALSO V LACES of HISTORIC INTEREST
    THE GLASNEVIN CEMETERY BEING A RECORD OF IRELAND'S HcflQMS DEAD IN DUBLIN CITY AND COUNTY ALSO V LACES OF HISTORIC INTEREST PRICE b|? NATIONAL GRAVES ASSOCIATION, 41 PARNELL SQUARE. FOREWORD The National Graves Association deserves praise and congratulations for its effort in making available this permanent record of Patriot Graves in and around Dub­ lin, and of the places where many met their deaths in the struggle for national liberty. It is to be hoped that this initial effort is the first instalment of what will be a permanent All-Ireland record. The work deserves the fullest support of all who wish the sacrifices made to be properly recorded, ‘ and it is certain to receive due recognition, not only in Ireland, but amongst our people abroad. I would appeal especially to Eepublicans to give this project their active support. While we profess a reverence for the names and memories of our heroes and martyrs, we sometimes fall short in giving positive evidence of this feeling, as is shown by neglect of many of their resting-places, or of the spots where they met their deaths at the hands of the enemy. Many of the graves of our National Dead are unmarked; some are only vaguely known, while others are entirely unknown. The graves of the soldiers of the Eepublic of Ireland, who gave their lives in recent times, are sometimes untended. Such neglect is contrary to the general belief which credits us with great reverence for our dead. This is a lapse from duty which the National Graves Association is seeking to have remedied.
