Location Moone is a small village on the N9 south of Kilcullen in County Kildare, Ireland. History An important Anglo-Norman Borough was established at Moone. The Charter outlining the privileges granted to the burgesses, was drawn up by William Marshal circa 1223. Moone had a castle, a hospice, bugage tenements, corn mills and a weekly court. The manor of Moone consisted of a messuage with its curtilage, and one hundred and thirty four acres. There were two water mills at Moone. In 1305, John Wogan was granted the lands and tenements at Moone. The manor of Moone had passed to the Eustace family, and when the lands were surveyed in 1654-6, there were two castles and a mill, which are shown on Petty’s map of county Kildare, dated 1685. (Journal of the County Kildare Archaeological Society: 1998-99, Vol. XVIII, Part IV). Parts of Moone, Kilkea and Dunlost, five miles south-east of Athy, came to the Eustaces in 1447 as part of the Wogan inheritance .

  • The Name Shaw in Ireland Is of Scottish Origin Having Been Brought to Ulster in the 16Th Century by Settlers of the Mackintosh Clan
    A Genealogy of the S h a w s of Castledermot The name Shaw in Ireland is of Scottish origin having been brought to Ulster in the 16th century by settlers of the Mackintosh Clan. Descendants bearing this name can be found in all four provinces but the highest density is still in the province of Ulster. The Shaw family name bears the motto ‘fide et fortitudine’ which means ‘by fidelity and fortitude’. Shaw coat of arms The infrequent occurance of the surname Shaw or its variants Shoe and Shew in the early Castledermot records leads me to believe that they are all derived from the same person - viz. Thomas Shaw Sr., who married about 1755. For certain, the Shaws of Castledermot town are definitely descended from Thomas Shaw Sr., who, along with his sons John and Thomas Jr. are mentioned in documents relating to the 1798 rebellion as being members of the United Irishmen [see Appendix A]. I believe that the Shaws of Ballyburn and later Knocknawee, are also descended from Thomas Shaw Sr., through another son, Laurence Shaw, who is known to be living in Ballyburn in 1795. Furthermore, the frequent use of the christian names Thomas and John, and most significantly, David, among the Shaws, also lead me to the same conclusion. Whereas the Shaws of Knocknagee were tenants of a small land holding and were relatively comfortable, the Shaws of Castledermot town would have lived in relative poverty [see Appendix F]. One can only speculate if the Thomas Shaw Sr mentioned above is in any way connected to the protestant George Shaw buried in Saint James’ cemetary, Castledermot and whose inscription reads: Here lyeth the body of Geo rge Shaw Junior who died the 23rd day of March 1699.

  • Pollinator Friendly Kildare Kildare Pollinator Action Plan 2019-2022
    Pollinator Friendly Kildare Kildare Pollinator Action Plan 2019-2022 December 2020 Ver 3.0 This is an action in the County Kildare Heritage Plan 2019-2025 Figure 2 Buff-tailed bumblebee (Bombus terrestris) Figure 1 Holly Blue Butterfly (Celastrina argiolus) 1 1.0 Introduction The All Ireland Pollinator Plan provides evidence-based guidelines, which give clear advice on how each sector can improve the environment for pollinators – for example, by reducing grass mowing; by allowing hedgerows to bloom; by planting pollinator-friendly plants; or by reducing the use of pesticides. The All Ireland Pollinator Plan has developed specific guidelines for County Councils and has encouraged participation as a Partner Council of the All Ireland Pollinator Plan. Fundamental to becoming a Partner Council of the All Ireland Pollinator Plan is a commitment to a framework of actions, which are outlined in this report and to sign up to an All Ireland Pollinator Plan Partner Framework which commits to the following: • to support the philosophy of the plan; • to reflect the plan in its policies, plans and management decisions where possible, and • to carry out pollinator-friendly actions and initiatives in line with the recommendations of the plan. One third of our bee species are threatened with extinction in Ireland because we have drastically reduced the amount of food (flowers) and safe nesting sites in our landscapes. In an effort to halt the decline of our vitally important native pollinators, the All Ireland Pollinator Plan was initiated in 2015 by Úna FitzPatrick (National Biodiversity Data Centre) and Figure 3 Uncut wildflower verge in Kilcullen Jane Stout (Trinity College Dublin) and a fifteen member All-Ireland steering group.

  • 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.

After a strong local campaign, led by Castledermot residents, the National Transport Authority has agreed to provide this additional service. The new local link bus service runs from Naas to Carlow several times a day serving Castledermot, Moone, Timolin, Ballitore, Crookstown, Kilcullen, Two Mile House and Naas Hospital. Social Welfare travel passes are accepted on the new route which has been designed to coincide with onward buses from Naas and Carlow. The usage of the new bus route will be reviewed after six months and will only be continued based on usage so people need to use it or lose it.
