  • Ireland Under the Normans Goddard Henry Orpen
    The Sub-Infeudation Of Connaught 1237 And Afterwards Ireland Under The Normans 1169-1216 By Goddard Henry Orpen LATE SCHOLAR OF TRINITY COLLEGE,DUBLIN EDITOR OF 'THE SONG OF DERMOT AND THE EARL ' MEMBER OF THE ROYAL IRISH ACADEMY 1911 Richard de Burgh had now a free hand in Connaught, and though sundry attempts at occupation had been made at various times since the beginning of the century, the effective settlement of Anglo- Normans in the province may be said to have commenced in 1237. In that year, says the Irish annalist, ‘ the barons of Erin came and commenced to build castles in it’. In the following year ‘ castles were erected in Muinter Murchada (the northern half of the barony of Clare, County Galway), Conmaicne Cuile (the barony of Kilmaine, south of the river Robe, County Mayo), and in Cera (the barony of Carra, County Mayo) by the aforesaid barons’. [1] Save for personal quarrels among the O’Conors themselves the peace was unbroken. Unfortunately there is no contemporary summary of Richard de Burgh’s enfeoffments, such as the Song of Dermot gives of those of Strongbow and the elder Hugh de Lacy, and though there trans- cripts in the ‘ Red Book of the Earl of Kildare’ and in the ‘ Gormanston Register’ of several charters of this period, we are largely dependent on indications in the annals, and on inferences from later documents and records for our knowledge of the Anglo-Norman settlement in Connaught. Indeed the first comprehensive account is to be gleaned from the Inquisitions taken in 1333 [2] after the murder of William de Burgh, Earl of Ulster, fifteen years after the great disruption caused by the Scottish invasion under Edward Bruce, and at a time when the royal power in Ireland had begun to wax faint.

    !1 Kilshalvey Parish Drumrulla Townland 1838 map The Drumrat, Toomour and parts of Kilshalvy Parish Townland Information sheets bring together the first bits of information that inquisitive people ask about when looking for a relation and where they lived. These pages provide some name and place lists and online sources to introduce you to those who lived hereabouts in the recent, and not so recent, past. Our hope is that your search fosters an appreciation for the past and its peoples and the lands they called home. Our goal is to be helpful. Welcome to the neighbourhood. The red numbers in the map note the specific Griffith’s Valuation (GV) fields/parcels of land. See the GV list for this town land below to match with tenants and owners holding these fields in 1857. !2 Lands boundaries have been redone since over the years, and of course land has changed hands. Information from the Land and Tenant Rate books at the Valuation Office will be a good source for more information about the people living on and working the land after this 1857 informa- tion. See the section below re Valuations. We begin with the Down Survey of Ireland and other descriptive information about the townland below to get our bearings. Some sheets may contain estate records we were able to locate to give names of tenants early in the 1800s. We move on to the Tithe Applotment listings which tell us the heads of families in the town land in 1833. The Census records of 1901 and 1911 tell us who was in the houses in the townland on Census night.
