Loyalism in Fews from 17Th Century
23/06/2015 5:18 PM http://www.newryjournal.co.uk/2011/02/20/loyalism-in-fews-from-17th-... Readers Stories Discussion Forum Guestbook 1800-1900, — February 20, 2011 18:26 — 0 Comments Loyalism in Fews from 17th century Loyalism has its roots in the confiscation, followed by the plantation of Irish land by the English rulers from Queen Elizabeth in the 16th century to William of Orange at the end of the 17th century. The southern part of county Armagh – known as the Fews, or to give it its Gaelic name Na Feadha (woods or wilderness) – had resisted plantation by nature of its remoteness, its mountainous terrain and because like most of Ulster, it lay outside the control of English domain. However in 1572 Queen Elizabeth, who had already shown interest in bringing colonists to Ulster, decided that South Armagh was ripe for plantation. Accordingly on 5 October 1572 the Queen granted ‘Orior, the Fews and Gallowglass country’ (around Markethill) to Sir Thomas Chatterton .1 In spite of Chatterton’s efforts which included building a fort at Camlough, his scheme came to nothing and his grant was revoked. Chatterton was killed shortly after in Orior, his brother was slain in 1585. A colony of Scots settled at Markethill in 1619 by John Henry Acheson was more successful with a ‘bawn of clay and stone …..and they are able to make thirty men at arms’. 2 The area around Creggan was able to escape the ravages of plantation until Cromwellian times when the lands of Henry O’ Neill were confiscated and Henry transplanted to Connacht. -

Zebra Mussel Management Strategy for Northern Ireland 2004 - 2010
ZEBRA MUSSEL MANAGEMENT STRATEGY FOR NORTHERN IRELAND 2004 - 2010 Caitriona M Maguire and Lisa M Sykes Queens University Belfast May 2004 The Zebra Mussel Management Strategy for Northern Ireland Foreword I am pleased to see this positive effort for the control of Zebra Mussels in Northern Ireland. Invasive alien species are the biggest threat to native biodiversity, after habitat destruction. All habitats can be threatened, resulting in grave damage to conservation and economic interests such as agriculture, fi sheries, forestry, tourism and civil infrastructure. In some cases, public, animal and plant health may also be threatened. The need to address the issue of invasive introduced species is recognised in the Convention on Biological Diversity (CDB), to which both the UK and Irish Governments are signatories. It requires contracting parties, as far as is appropriate “to prevent the introduction of, control or eradicate those alien species which threaten ecosystems, habitats or species”. Last year, Environment and Heritage Service (EHS), in conjunction with National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPW), Dublin, commissioned The Queen’s University of Belfast (QUB) to carry out a review of introduced species in Ireland and make recommendations for future action. The report made 10 key recommendations to address both the urgent and longer-term issues. This will provide the framework in which this management strategy will be implemented. The need for a co-ordinated approach between jurisdictions to tackle the zebra mussel invasion was recognised and acted upon from the outset. Although the Zebra Mussel Management Strategy has focused on Northern Ireland, it is both welcome and essential that strong links have been made with the rest of Ireland. -

County Armagh Scarce, Rare and Extinct Vascular Plant Register
County Armagh Scarce, Rare and Extinct Vascular Plant Register John Faulkner Edited by Julia Nunn Centre for Environmental Data and Recording (CEDaR) 2015 Vascular Plants Register County Armagh County Armagh Scarce, Rare & Extinct Vascular Plant Register John Faulkner Records editor: John Faulkner Author of species accounts: John Faulkner General editor: Julia Nunn 2015 This register is one of a series, planned eventually to cover the whole of the British Isles, as an initiative of the Botanical Society of Britain and Ireland (BSBI). The purpose of the series is to document records of species that are rare or scarce, and highlight those that are a potential source of concern. In Northern Ireland, Rare Plant Registers are being produced for each county as a co-operative venture between BSBI and the Centre for Environmental Data and Recording (CEDaR) of National Museums Northern Ireland. Most of the records which comprise the core of this register have been extracted from the databases held by the Centre for Environmental Data and Recording at the National Museums Northern Ireland, and by the records editor in his capacity as BSBI vice-county recorder for Armagh These databases contain the overwhelming majority of County Armagh records for vascular plants. There are, however, a few potential sources of old records which require further research, and some existing herbarium specimens which require expert identification. For these and other reasons, the Register should be seen as an initial version which will be updated in due course.

Guide to Sources for Women's History
GUIDE TO SOURCES FOR WOMEN’S HISTORY Department of Culture, Arts and Leisure © PRONI 1993 Cover illustration: Elizabeth St Leger (c.1700-1773), daughter of Arthur, 1st viscount Doneraile, Grand Master of the Freemasons of Ireland, 1740-41, and wife of Richard Aldworth of Newmarket, Co. Cork. The only female Freemason, she first appears in a published list of Irish Freemasons in 1744, having been admitted following an episode at her father’s house, Doneraile Court, Co. Cork, where she accidentally overheard, or deliberately eavesdropped on a lodge meeting. Of the alternatives of swearing her in, or doing her in, the lodge members chose the more merciful.

Miscellaneous 122 INTRODUCTION Women’s history is a relatively recent development in the Irish context and has been treated as something of a ‘separatist’ area. As Dr David Fitzpatrick asserted in a recent review ‘It is scarcely surprising that the pioneers of Irish women’s history have concentrated on women acting together in contexts where men appear as either adversaries or outsiders. The experience of the nun, the prostitute, the servant, the suffragist or the IWWU member, was moulded by attachments to social groups or organisations particular to women. -
Landlords and Tenants in Co. Armagh by JOE CANNING
Landlords and Tenants in Co. Armagh by JOE CANNING When one looks at 19th century Irish politics With regard to the tenants, there were basically two ? a number of issues stand out e.g. Catholic kinds leaseholders and tenants-at-will.

It gave rise 16% of all holdings, whereas the tenants-at-will to a lot of debate, produced much literature, was the numbered approximately 526,000 in the whole of subject of a number of government commissions and Ireland, and about 205,000 inUlster. Most of the leases an were or issue at elections and, unfortunately, led at times for long terms of years for the duration of two to considerable violence. The extent of the difficulty or more lives; some were good in perpetuity or in finding a solution can be gleaned from the fact that renewable forever. Leaseholders, to a large extent, between 1849 and 1920 over 40 Acts of Parliament occupied large grazing farms.

BC Must Turn Over Troubles Tapes
August 2012 Boston’s hometown VOL. 23 #8 journal of Irish culture. $1.50 Worldwide at All contents copyright © 2012 Boston Neighborhood News, Inc. bostonirish.com Larry Reynolds and his wife Phyllis were feted to an all-day party Sunday afternoon July 15 at Concannon’s Village in Norwood in celebration of the couple’s 80th birthdays this year. More than 300 people were on hand for a continuous session of traditional Irish music and dance to toast the couple. Relatives and friends from all over New England were joined by a contingent from Ireland who visited Boston for the occasion. A native of Ahascragh in Co. Galway, Reynolds came to Boston in 1953, where he met and married his wife Phyllis, a piano player, and they were proud parents of seven children – six boys and a girl. Larry was a founder of Boston’s own chapter of Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann, Hanafin-Cooley Branch, Promoting Traditional Irish Culture, Music and Dance in the Boston Area. In 2002, he was inducted into the Comhaltas Hall of Fame. (Photo by Harry Brett, Image Photo Service.)
