    Tipperary News Part 6

    Clonmel Advertiser. 20-4-1822 We regret having to mention a cruel and barbarous murder, attended with circumstances of great audacity, that has taken place on the borders of Tipperary and Kilkenny. A farmer of the name of Morris, at Killemry, near Nine-Mile-House, having become obnoxious to the public disturbers, received a threatening notice some short time back, he having lately come to reside there. On Wednesday night last a cow of his was driven into the bog, where she perished; on Thursday morning he sent two servants, a male and female, to the bog, the male servant to skin the cow and the female to assist him; but while the woman went for a pail of water, three ruffians came, and each of them discharged their arms at him, and lodged several balls and slugs in his body, and then went off. This occurred about midday. No one dared to interfere, either for the prevention of this crime, or to follow in pursuit of the murderers. The sufferer was quite a youth, and had committed no offence, even against the banditti, but that of doing his master’s business. Clonmel Advertiser 24-8-1835 Last Saturday, being the fair day at Carrick-on-Suir, and also a holiday in the Roman Catholic Church, an immense assemblage of the peasantry poured into the town at an early hour from all directions of the surrounding country. The show of cattle was was by no means inferior-but the only disposable commodity , for which a brisk demand appeared evidently conspicuous, was for Feehans brown stout.
  • Ballaghaderreen and the Mayo-Roscommon Boundary

    Ballaghaderreen and the Mayo-Roscommon Boundary

    ..;.. BALLAGHADERREEN AND THE MAYO-ROSCOMMON BOUNDARY h Map Location of Ballaa:haderreen: In 1824 the British Parliament authorised a survey of the whole island of Ireland, at a scale of six inches to one mile. This undertaking was entrusted to the military Board of Ordnance, and the survey became known as the Ordnance Survey. The beautiful 6" maps, produced as a ,result of the survey, were published over the years 1833 to 1846. The maps for County Roscommon appeared in 1837; those for County Mayo in 1838. If one wishes to find the map of the Ballaghaderreen area in that first Ordnance Survey, one turns to Mayo, sheet 74. After the first survey, the Ordnance Survey - as the surveying body became known - continued the work of mapping the country. It produced maps at different scales, and it published revisions of earlier maps. A major revision of the original 6" maps took place in the early years of this century. If one wishes to find the map of Ballaghaderreen area in this edition, one must now tum to Roscommon, sheet 8. Clearly by that time Ballaghaderreen had moved to County Roscommon. The Ordnance Survey does not, of course, decide the county boundaries. It simply follows the boundaries laid down by the bodies, who organise local government in the country. These bodies, sometime near the end of the last century, decided that the boundary between Counties Mayo and Roscommon should be re-drawn, so as to bring the Ballaghaderreen area from Mayo into Roscommon. Since the boundary was over three hundred years old at that time, it seems of interest to ask who made the change, and why they made it.

    THE MIGRATION of the DESCENDANTS of William FANNING of COUNTY KILKENNY & COUNTY TIPPERARY, IRELAND to Counties Mayo & Leitrim & on to North America

    THE MIGRATION OF THE DESCENDANTS Of William FANNING Of COUNTY KILKENNY & COUNTY TIPPERARY, IRELAND To Counties Mayo & Leitrim & On To North America The progenitor of this family of Fannings was William Fannyng (sic), who owned land in the Barony of Kells, [1] County Kilkenny in 1570. He is also recorded in 1570 having extensive land holdings in the Manor of Killenaule, Barony of Slievardagh in County Tipperary. William Fannyng died in 1590.[2] William Fannyng may have been a kinsman of Oliver Fannynge who was granted lands in County Kilkenny by Henry VIII in 1545 and in 1548[3]. Oliver Fannynge was of Kylry in the County of Kilkenny. [4] He was mentioned as one holding land by knight’s service in the Manor of Knocktopher in 1570. [5] [6] All indications point to Co. Tipperary as the ancestral home of William Fannyng of Kells. His estates were settled prior to his death with all of the Fannyng Trustees being from Co. Tipperary, that is: James, son of Thomas Fannyng of Ballingtaggert, Co. Tipperary; Robert, son of Walter Fannynge of Mohobber, Co. Tipperary & Richard Fannynge of Kappaghintallagarry. [7] The Fanning family has ancient roots in Co. Kilkenny & Co. Tipperary. [8] John Fanning was the first Fanning recorded in Co. Tipperary on the 20th of November, 1285 [9] and again on the 20th of October, 1295. [10] Mohober, in the Parish of Lismalin, Barony of Compsey, County Tipperary, was for several centuries principally a Fanning manor. [11] In addition to sons Thomas, Walter & Richard, William Fannyng of Kells had two other known sons, James & William.

The Births, marriages and deaths were registered by geographical areas known as Registration Districts (also known as Superintendent Registrar’s Districts). The boundaries of the registration districts followed the boundaries of the Poor Law Unions created earlier under the 1838 Poor Law Act for the administration of relief to the poor.

IV., c 99. Their origins pre-date this act, they were used in the assessments of local taxation under the Grand Juries. Over time many were split into smaller units and a few were amalgamated. Townlands and parishes - smaller units - were detached from one barony and allocated to an adjoining one at vaious intervals. This the size of many baronines changed, albiet not substantially. Furthermore, reclamation of sea and loughs expanded the land mass of Ireland, consequently between 1851 and 1861 Ireland increased its size by 9,433 acres. The census Commissioners used Barony units for organising the census data from 1821 to 1891. These notes are to guide the user through these changes. From the census of 1871 to 1891 the number of subjects enumerated at this level decreased In addition, city and large town data are also included in many of the barony tables.

LONDON : A. W. BENNETT, SUCCESSOR TO W. & F. G. CASH, 5 , BISHOPSGATE-STREET, WITHOUT. 1865. S DUBLIN: PRINTED BY R. D. WEBB AND SON, GREAT BRUNS WICK-STREET. REPORT, &c. I n presenting tliis final Report of the proceedings of the Relief Committee of the Society of Friends, it is needful to have reference to the Report which was published in 1852, and to which was annexed a statement of accounts, showing a balance re­ maining unappropriated of £2,765 7s. id. This sum, after the payment of some small out­ standing claims, was invested at interest to await the probable contingency of a period of distress occurring hereafter, in which such assistance as was afforded in 1847 an(l 1848 might again be required. The first claim which it appeared right to ' recognize was made in i860, and came from the barony of Erris, an extensive district in the north­ west of the county of Mayo, consisting chiefly of unproductive bog and mountain, and thinly in­ habited in proportion to its extent. The crops of 1859 ha<l suffered severely from local causes, and there was in consequence much distress in this district in the spring and early summer of i860. The Committee, on being applied to, requested a gentleman who had visited Erris in 1847 and 1848 4 to investigate its present condition ; on his report it was agreed to afford some assistance, and even­ tually the sum of £562 12s.
  • O'donnells of Ballingarry

    O'donnells of Ballingarry

    O’Donnells of Ballingarry Compiled: Mick O’Donnell, [email protected], 2019 1 Introduction The document is part of an effort I am undertaking to compile family trees for all O’Donnells in Southern Tipperary, whether related to me or not. The sparsity of information for family history prior to 1850 means that it is often difficult to follow one’s own ancestors backwards. By compiling a list of O’Donnells upwards makes it easier for a family researcher to find exactly where their ancestor might fit in. This particular document compiles information on O’Donnells based in the Civil Parish of Ballingarry, in the Barony of Slieveardagh, Tipperary. Ballingarry is a also the name of the chief village in the parish. The village is just 6 km from the Kilkenny border. For the 1901 Census, some townlands of Ballingarry Religious Parish are shown as being in Ballyphillip, Farranrory, Kilcooly or Modeshill, which are “electoral division” within Ballingarry Civil Parish. For many civil records, Ballingarry was included in Callan Registration District, even though Callan is in Kilkenny. Callan seemed to have been the administrative centre to which Ballingarry turned. 1 Ancestors of Thomas O’Donnell born 1763 A family of O’Donnells lived in Ballingarry village from at least the early 1800s. Most of the information is from a gravestone, with more information from the 1901/11 censuses, BDM data and a will. Thomas O'Donnell of Ballingarry, was born 1763, died 29th October, 1829.1 He married Mary Marnell, born 1775, died 17th August, 1856.2 Thomas and Mary had at least two children: • Richard O'Donnell, born 1804, died 20th April 1854, aged 50.3 • Michael O'Donnell, born 1810, died 21st November, 1863, aged 53.4 There are two other O’Donnells in the region who may be other children, but I cannot prove the connection: John and Thomas.
