They were evicted from their holdings on the Buckley and Montgomery Estates by the landlords because they awed one half year's rent. The rent due was actually tendered to the agent but was refused as the Whole idea behind the eviction was to banish the small holders. and turn the district into one large estate. There was a company of the Irish Volunteers in Fermoy before Easter Week 1916 but I was not a member. As far a I can remember the pioneer in the organisation of this company was Seán O'Brien who was; a native of Fermoy. He was a gardenerS at the Presentation Convent. Other members were Jimmy Barry, Pad Fleming, Dick Bulman, Bill and Mick O'Connell, Dan Fitzpatrick and Mick Fitzgibbon.

  • Social Housing Construction Projects Status Report Q4 2019
    Social Housing Construction Projects Status Report Q4 2019 May 2020 Rebuilding Ireland - Action Plan for Housing and Homelessness Quarter 4 of 2019: Social Housing Construction Status Report Rebuilding Ireland: Social Housing Targets Under Rebuilding Ireland, the Government has committed more than €6 billion to support the accelerated delivery of over 138,000 additional social housing homes to be delivered by end 2021. This will include 83,760 HAP homes, 3,800 RAS homes and over 50,000 new homes, broken down as follows: Build: 33,617; Acquisition: 6,830; Leasing: 10,036. It should be noted that, in the context of the review of Rebuilding Ireland and the refocussing of the social housing delivery programme to direct build, the number of newly constructed and built homes to be delivered by 2021 has increased significantly with overall delivery increasing from 47,000 new homes to over 50,000. This has also resulted in the rebalancing of delivery under the construction programme from 26,000 to 33,617 with acquisition targets moving from 11,000 to 6,830. It is positive to see in the latest Construction Status Report that 6,704 social homes are currently onsite. The delivery of these homes along with the additional 7,813 homes in the pipeline will substantially aid the continued reduction in the number of households on social housing waiting lists. These numbers continue to decline with a 5% reduction of households on the waiting lists between 2018 and 2019 and a 25% reduction since 2016. This progress has been possible due to the strong delivery under Rebuilding Ireland with over 100,000 (100,124) households supported to the end of Q4 2019 since Rebuilding Ireland in 2016.

  • 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.

Member of Clan na Gael, San Francisco, 1915 -; 0/C. Castlelyons Coy. I.R.A. 1919 -. Subject. (a) Clan na Gael, San Francisco, U.S.A., 1915 -; (b) Fermoy Battalion I.R.A., Co. Cork, 1919-1921. Conditions, if any, Stipulated by Witness. Nil File No. S.2309 Form B.S.M.2 STATEMENT BY MR. WILLIAM BUCKLEY, Ballyhampshire, Castlelyons, Co. Cork. I was born at Francestown, Castlelyons, quite close to Bawnard House, the home of the Kent family, made famous by 1916, on September 10th, 1886. My parents were farmers. My father was evicted from his holding on September 20th, 1911. I left Ireland for New Zealand in March, 1912. For my first twelve months or so there, I worked at gold mining at Addison's Flats, Westport, West Coast, South Island. Not making any kind of a lucky strike at the gold mining, I moved to the North Island where I found work as a labourer on a waterworks undertaking at Ummatucka Range, where I worked until nearing the end of l914 when I left for U.S.A. I arrived in San Francisco sometime before Christmas, 1914, where I found work on the docks as a longshoreman. I was not very long in San Francisco when I made contact with the Irish crowd there. It was there I joined the Irish Volunteers in 1915 and became a member of Clan na Gael.

  • 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.
