  • Co. Londonderry – Historical Background Paper the Plantation
    Co. Londonderry – Historical Background Paper The Plantation of Ulster and the creation of the county of Londonderry On the 28th January 1610 articles of agreement were signed between the City of London and James I, king of England and Scotland, for the colonisation of an area in the province of Ulster which was to become the county of Londonderry. This agreement modified the original plan for the Plantation of Ulster which had been drawn up in 1609. The area now to be allocated to the City of London included the then county of Coleraine,1 the barony of Loughinsholin in the then county of Tyrone, the existing town at Derry2 with adjacent land in county Donegal, and a portion of land on the county Antrim side of the Bann surrounding the existing town at Coleraine. The Londoners did not receive their formal grant from the Crown until 1613 when the new county was given the name Londonderry and the historic site at Derry was also renamed Londonderry – a name that is still causing controversy today.3 The baronies within the new county were: 1. Tirkeeran, an area to the east of the Foyle river which included the Faughan valley. 2. Keenaght, an area which included the valley of the river Roe and the lowlands at its mouth along Lough Foyle, including Magilligan. 3. Coleraine, an area which included the western side of the lower Bann valley as far west as Dunboe and Ringsend and stretching southwards from the north coast through Macosquin, Aghadowey, and Garvagh to near Kilrea. 4. Loughinsholin, formerly an area in county Tyrone, situated between the Sperrin mountains in the west and the river Bann and Lough Neagh on the east, and stretching southwards from around Kilrea through Maghera, Magherafelt and Moneymore to the river Ballinderry.

  • The Irish Revenue Police,1832-1857 by Jim Herlihy
    Irish Roots 2018 Issue 2 The Irish Revenue Police,1832-1857 by Jim Herlihy The idea of compiling a genealogical guide to the Irish Revenue Police developed from a variety of experiences. In compiling my three books on the Royal Irish Constabulary 1816-1922 (85,028 members) and two books on the Dublin Metropolitan Police 1836-1925 (12,566 members), I encountered the names of additional policemen who served between the 1830s and the 1850s, in the Chief Secretary’s Office Registered Papers (CSORP), National Archives. Their names could not be matched with RIC registered numbers of service or with DMP warrant numbers. Also, when looking at death certificates of Irish policemen between 1864 and 1900 in the General Registrar’s Office, I noticed that the occupation listed on some of the death certificates was ‘revenue policeman’, and in the RIC registers of service in particular I found that several Irish Constabulary members who joined on and after 1 October 1857 had an additional date of enlistment prior to that date. had transferred to the Irish Constabulary individual IRP men resided in 1857, This was in fact the date of or to the Dublin Metropolitan Police. I seven years before the commencement of disbandment of the Irish Revenue Police. then made contact with Brian Donovan civil registration in Ireland. of Eneclann, who was instrumental in On examining the RIC rank-and-file Privates in the Irish Revenue Police securing the digitisation of these records registers of service, I found that a total of were not permitted to get married and at The National Archives (UK), thus 519 revenue policemen had transferred Lieutenants of the Revenue Police were making them easily accessible through to the Irish Constabulary on and after permitted to get married, however, www.findmypast.ie.

  • Insights Into the O'neills of Ireland from DNA Testing
    Journal of Genetic Genealogy 2:18-26, 2006 Insights Into the O’Neills of Ireland from DNA Testing Edwin B. O’Neill and John D. McLaughlin The O'Neills of Ireland are one of the best known and important families in Irish history, descended from a long dynastic line that for centuries were Kings of Ulster and High Kings of Ireland. By traditional pedigree they are patrilineal descendants of Niall "of the Nine Hostages" who was the semi-historical High King of Ireland who died in 405 and who was the founder of the famous Ui Neill dynasty. But an examination of DNA data on males with the O’Neill, McLaughlin, O Cathain, McShane and other related surnames has led to a theory that the Royal Tyrone O’Neills of Ireland, from some point forward, were not, as history records, patrilineal descendents from the line of the Ui Neill. An analysis of available Y-DNA data on 102 males with the O’Neill surname reveals the existence of two different O’Neill Y-STR clusters, both primarily located in the region of Ireland associated with the Ui Neill line and the Royal O’Neills. Results of testing the Y-SNP M222 indicate that the two groups of O’Neills are distinctly separate. Documented Irish history, coupled with Y-DNA data on surnames linked to the Ui Neill line at different time periods (McLaughlin, O Cathain and McShane) suggest the approximate time frame of a non-paternal event (NPE) in the Royal O’Neill line occurred between the 900s and 1500s.

  • Rural Agitation in Ireland 1710-2010: a Bibliography Tomás Mac Sheoin
    Interface: a journal for and about social movements Bibliography Volume 10 (1-2): 215 - 278 (2018) MacSheoin, Rural agitation in Ireland Rural agitation in Ireland 1710-2010: a bibliography Tomás Mac Sheoin Abstract This bibliography brings together recent secondary literature on agitation in rural Ireland over a period of three centuries. Keywords: Ireland, rural agitation, land war, peasant resistance, Whiteboys, rural protest, tithe war, Ribbonism Introduction Studies of various aspects of rural agitation in Ireland have flourished over the last four decades. Prior to the publication of T Desmond Williams’ edited collection on secret societies in 1973 –generally seen as the beginning of this flourishing- rural unrest had not been a major subject of unrest: aside from O’Donoghue’s work on tithes and a variety of work published in local archaeological and historical journals, the land war had been almost the sole such subject of interest to mainstream Irish historiography. This changed with the arrival of social history and ‘history from below’ under the influence of English historians such as E.P. Thompson. As Fitzpatrick noted in a 1985 review essay ‘In addition to the three volumes under review, at least twenty-two major studies of various aspects of rural unrest have been published since 1978’ (Fitzpatrick 1985: 98). By the time Cronin published her review in 2012 her bibliography had swelled to twelve pages, though some of the listed works were contextual rather than focused on specific cases of agitation. My recent review in Interface featured a bibliography of eighteen pages, though again a fair number of the listed works were contextual.
