Memories of the Hall A LIFE TIME’S INVOLVEMENT WITH THE HALL by Paddy O’Shea (Imokilly People 25 Nov 1990) My first experience of the Hall in Aghada was when as a young Since the formation of a Committee in teenager my friends and I used to Aghada Community Centre at a general cycle down from Cloyne to the meeting, the centre has been a hive of famous Pioneer Socials run by Fr activity. O'Brien CC., who incidentally died last year 2012 at the age of 90. As well as the music Fr.

To this end they anticipate having a In 1977 when I had purchased Crowley's Corner central heating system installed in the Shop and moved my family to Aghada, having got very near future. my business up and running.

Committee Mrs. had to get the Fire Chiefs advice, when he arrived Breda Cashman, Mrs. Maggie Brosnan, he condemned the Hall for any activity and said Mr. John Higgins Mr. Tom Lane, Mr. that it should be closed down. Fr. Terry, now Very Tom McCormack, Rev. Canon, was the C.C. in Saleen at the time and was a man very knowledgeable about building. We approached him and he did a plan for a new Community Centre. All we then needed was the money. The E.S.B. Power Station was built some years before and I was aware that a development charge would be levied on them and would be paid to the Local Authority. I went to the County Hall on a number of occasions and had to satisfy them of my credentials but eventually they agreed to supervise the building and extend £16,000 to us. They also appointed an Engineer to supervise the work on their behalf. I approached ANCO (now FAS) and after a lot of negotiations they agreed to come on board to build the Community Centre. They appointed their own Engineer and a Foreman for the construction. We employed our own Foreman Reggie Maguire of Shanagarry. The construction took approx. 2 years with a lot of ups and downs. The old Hall had to be knocked and cleared and it is a great credit to the hard working committee and the Parish Community for getting on with the task. The local men and Farming community gave of their time and machinery and the site was cleared ready to build. Then it was the task of the women, who organised and helped to raise funds through Rallies, Jumble Sales (I suppose they are now known as car boot sales) and lots more. It was officially opened by Mr Paddy Hegarty T.D. Minister for State at the time, and blessed by Very Rev. Canon John Aherne P.P. and the Rev Graeme Cooke Presbyterian Minister. Our efforts of 30 odd years ago I think served the Community well, and I hope the new building will serve the coming generation for many many years to come. Some facebook comments Maggie Rath (Lee) I have great memories of Aghada Hall. The walk back to Whitegate afterwards was often just as much fun! Songs by the Bee Gees bring back particularly good times!! ******************************** Eugene O'Leary "The Hilltop Band" also played there. Johnny Sullivan on drums, Tony Hornibrook on accordion and Denis O'Leary on harmonica. Those were the days! Slow waltz, Quick-step, Walls of Limerick, and the Tango. Don't forget the movies ("The pictures") every Sunday night, brought to Aghada hall by Tommy Archer from Ballycotton. Better than the ones in Whitegate which were known as "Pat Barrett's Breakdowns!" ("Ladies and gentlemen, the next song now will be a dance by Marie Kelly and Jimmy O'Leary") Great memories. ************************** Billy Fitzpatrick Yeah, surely everybody (over 66!) must remember Marcelino, the boy who got bitten by a scorpion?? I'm talking movie here ! "# TWELVE YEAR’S IN THE CHAIR (Imokilly People 5th May 1994) COMMUNITY CENTRE AGM A very successful AGM of the Aghada Community Centre was held on March 25th.

  • Church of Ireland Parish Registers
    National Archives Church of Ireland Parish Registers SURROGATES This listing of Church of Ireland parochial records available in the National Archives is not a list of original parochial returns. Instead it is a list of transcripts, abstracts, and single returns. The Parish Searches consist of thirteen volumes of searches made in Church of Ireland parochial returns (generally baptisms, but sometimes also marriages). The searches were requested in order to ascertain whether the applicant to the Public Record Office of Ireland in the post-1908 period was entitled to an Old Age Pension based on evidence abstracted from the parochial returns then in existence in the Public Record Office of Ireland. Sometimes only one search – against a specific individual – has been recorded from a given parish. Multiple searches against various individuals in city parishes have been recorded in volume 13 and all thirteen volumes are now available for consultation on six microfilms, reference numbers: MFGS 55/1–5 and MFGS 56/1. Many of the surviving transcripts are for one individual only – for example, accessions 999/562 and 999/565 respectively, are certified copy entries in parish registers of baptisms ordered according to address, parish, diocese; or extracts from parish registers for baptismal searches. Many such extracts are for one individual in one parish only. Some of the extracts relate to a specific surname only – for example accession M 474 is a search against the surname ”Seymour” solely (with related names). Many of the transcripts relate to Church of Ireland parochial microfilms – a programme of microfilming which was carried out by the Public Record Office of Ireland in the 1950s.

  • Port of Cork Company (POCC) Comments on the Draft National Planning Framework (NPF)
    Port of Cork Company (POCC) Comments on the Draft National Planning Framework (NPF) Introduction The Port Of Cork Company (POCC) welcome the opportunity to provide comments for consideration to the Draft National Planning Framework (NPF). The POCC is very supportive of the NPF initiative. POCC acknowledge that the Draft NPF is supportive of Port requirements and has considered many aspects of the POCC original submission. Nonetheless, minor amendments and / or additions to the Draft NPF would provide further clarity on policies and initiatives required to facilitate sustainable growth of critical strategic port related development and the potential of maritime economic and leisure activities. The Port of Cork is a key asset in facilitating national and regional growth and can positively contribute to the objectives identified in Cork 2050 and the NPF. POCC Strategic Plan has identified future port locations in Cork’s lower harbour, as follows: . Ringaskiddy . Marino Point . Cobh . Aghada / Whitegate Consent is in place for the redevelopment of Ringaskiddy to accommodate container activities, and in the longer-term Roll-on Roll-off freight trade. However, further investment in port facilities in the Cork Harbour and associated infrastructure is required to support the objectives of the Draft NPF for the sustainable growth of Cork and its region. There is also a need for further policy support to facilitate port related development; realise Ireland’s full maritime potential; and streamline maritime and port related development consent procedures. Submission Request - Overview POCC request that the draft NPF is amended to facilitate the full potential of Port Infrastructure and activities; support the upper harbour redevelopment lands in Cork; and facilitate Maritime Resources as key growth enablers for the Southern Region.

  • 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.
