T. S., Vol. IV., 114), and 2 to construct an text in this will help intelligible place ; it further secondly, because affords evidence that the story of Meath the of the formation in first century by Tuathal is a fiction. It describes the Teachtmhar supposed boundary to the and passes immediately enumeration of the tribes the seated in Meath proper. Unlike province supposed to extend from Birr to the Sliabh Fuaid, these tribes cases to are in the majority of well known history. The settle some was ment of of them in the central plain pre-historic, but there are others which did not exist for many centuries after the alleged formation of Meath. Moreover, the doctrine text of the first part of the does not agree with that of the as whole the is second, the territory occupied by tribes only about half that contained within the limits described. Again, Teffia and in the poem quoted above, (northern) Cairpre are to on Gabra, in the County Longford, said be the northern runs border, but the prose the boundary into Leitrim and no further than Cavan. Bregia goes Annagassan, County text Louth, but the longer pushes it northwards to Carlingford, thereby disregarding ancient tradition. It need hardly be the of Meath as as added that story the formation of early the first century is quite incompatible with certain entries in the Annals of Ulster. These entries will be found collected of by MacNeill, in Vol. XXVI., p. 341, the New Ireland Review* 1 is This river said to be near Annagassan in County Louth. See s. Onomasticon (Hogan), v., and Cass?n linne. For the other places see the mentioned, notes to the translation infra. Keating has a number of corruptions in these verses. 2 A praiseworthy attempt to unravel the difficulties in this section was of the Forus Feasa made by Lloyd in the Gaelic Journal, Nos. 126, 139, pp. 58, 60.

  • History of Borrisokane ,Co.Tipperary
    History of Borrisokane ,Co.Tipperary. ‘Introduction’ What better way to begin an account of a Tipperary town than by referring to the following words of a poem called ‘Tipperary‘.In these lines, the poet ‘ Eva of the Nation‘ who was one of the Kellys of Killeen, Portumna,wrote: ‘O come for a while among us,and give us a friendly hand, And you‘ll see that old Tipperary is a loving and gladsome land; From Upper to Lower Ormond bright welcome and smiles will spring, On the plains of Tipperary,the stranger is like a king?‘ Yes, I think the words ring true,I`m sure, for us and about us,natives of this part of Irish soil?? It is about one particular spot ‘on the plains of Tipperary‘ that I wish to write, namely my home parish of Borrisokane?? . So I turn again to verse, which so often suggests things that mere prose cannot? In a book of poetry, ‘The Spirit of Tipperary‘ published many years ago by the Nenagh Guardian,we find a poem by Dermot F ?Gleeson who for many years was District Justice in Nenagh.He wrote under the pen-name ‘Mac Liag‘ . He writes as if from the top of Lisgorrif Hill looking down on the broad expanse of the two Ormonds with Lough Derg bordering them to the left? .The poem is simply called, ‘The place where I was born’ ‘O’er hill and mountain, vale and town, My gaze now wanders up and down, Anon my heart is filled with pride, Anon with memory’s gentler tide ‘ Of sorrow, until through them all The twilight whispers softly call From upland green and golden corn “It is the place where you were born”.

    A Census of Ireland, Circa 1659 With Supplementing Materials From the Poll Money Ordinance as transcribed from Pender’s printed and published edition of the Petty Census of 1659 by Cecilia L. Fabos-Becker, July, 2014 Part 1 of several parts to follow Surnames: Campbells, McCormicks, Wallaces, Wood’s, and Woods NOTE: In 2020, the entire surviving "census," that is, the 1659 Hearth Tax Rolls, were digitized and uploaded by Clan Maclochlainn. You will find the link under "Sources." However, if you want a quick look-up of a number of Scottish names, then these extracts, made before 2020, may be helpful to you. Seamus Pender, 1939, Dublin, Ireland, Published by the Stationery Office, “to be purchased directly from the Government Publications Sales Office, 3-4 College Street, Dublin, Ireland” Introduction (excerpts): In 1864, W.H. Harding announced before the Irish Royal Academy the discovery of what has been called “The Census of Ireland (1659).” He found the manuscripts in the Muniment Room of the Marquess of Lansdowne, at Lansdowne House in London, England. He made (handwritten) copies of the manuscripts before returning them to their owner. The copies are now in the Library of the Royal Irish Academy, as paper volumes 12" x 15" in size. .... Five entire counties are missing from the returns since their creation and spoilage: Cavan, Galway, Mayo, Tyrone and Wicklow. Additionally, four baronies are missing from County Corke, and nine baronies are missing from County Meath. Harding believed some sections were literally torn apart and used as kindling for household fires by servants, at times.
