  • The Irish Catholic Episcopal Corps, 1657 – 1829: a Prosopographical Analysis
    THE IRISH CATHOLIC EPISCOPAL CORPS, 1657 – 1829: A PROSOPOGRAPHICAL ANALYSIS VOLUME 1 OF 2 BY ERIC A. DERR THESIS FOR THE DEGREE OF PHD DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY NATIONAL UNIVERISTY OF IRELAND MAYNOOTH SUPERVISOR OF RESEARCH: DR. THOMAS O’CONNOR NOVEMBER 2013 Abstract This study explores, reconstructs and evaluates the social, political, educational and economic worlds of the Irish Catholic episcopal corps appointed between 1657 and 1829 by creating a prosopographical profile of this episcopal cohort. The central aim of this study is to reconstruct the profile of this episcopate to serve as a context to evaluate the ‘achievements’ of the four episcopal generations that emerged: 1657-1684; 1685- 1766; 1767-1800 and 1801-1829. The first generation of Irish bishops were largely influenced by the complex political and religious situation of Ireland following the Cromwellian wars and Interregnum. This episcopal cohort sought greater engagement with the restored Stuart Court while at the same time solidified their links with continental agencies. With the accession of James II (1685), a new generation of bishops emerged characterised by their loyalty to the Stuart Court and, following his exile and the enactment of new penal legislation, their ability to endure political and economic marginalisation. Through the creation of a prosopographical database, this study has nuanced and reconstructed the historical profile of the Jacobite episcopal corps and has shown that the Irish episcopate under the penal regime was not only relatively well-organised but was well-engaged in reforming the Irish church, albeit with limited resources. By the mid-eighteenth century, the post-Jacobite generation (1767-1800) emerged and were characterised by their re-organisation of the Irish Church, most notably the establishment of a domestic seminary system and the setting up and manning of a national parochial system.

    4. The Catholic Parish 01/09/2009 21:54 Page 81 CHAPTER The Catholic Parish 4 The first mention of the area now known as Clontuskert is to be found in the Annals of Ulster where the death of St Baetán (or Baedán) of Cluaintuaisceart is noted as taking place in A.D. 809, although the Annals of the Four Masters records that this event occurred four years earlier. Almost nothing is known of the life of St. Augustines St. Baetán, nor do we know with certainty where in the parish his Church 81 4. The Catholic Parish 01/09/2009 21:55 Page 82 The Parish of Clontuskert - Glimpses into its Past monastic foundation was situated. However, quite an amount is known as to the kind of life St. Baetán and his monks would have lived. His monastery would have borne little resemblance to the stone-built Priory founded in the townland of Abbeypark some four hundred years later. It might have been built as a ring fort structure, shielded from the outside by a palisade of stakes driven into the enclosing circular bank of earth. Its exact location is unknown although a number of possible sites still lurk in the local folk memory. The most likely site is the one on which the Old Abbey now stands, although no vestige of an earlier structure was discovered during the excavations in the 1970s. Crossconnell is suggested as a possibility. So too is Templepark where the ruins of an earlier church are in evidence. This very old church and graveyard is set on an elevated site in the townland of Templepark.
