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.

Mary O'flanagan
Hidden gems and Forgotten People COUNTY ROSCOMMON ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND HISTORICAL SOCIETY Mary O’Flanagan Early in the 1940s Castlerea and its surrounding areas were still without any post- primary educational facilities. It is recognised that, at that time secondary education was still reserved for the privileged few. However, Mary O’Flanagan, who was joined by her sister Bea, was to change all that. A native of Cloonfower, Castlerea, Mary O’Flanagan was educated at Cloonbonniffe NS and later at the Dominican Convent, Eccles Street, Dublin. She went on to attend University College Galway where she obtained a BA a B.Com, her H. Dip and an MA. She taught for a short time in Navan, Tubbercurry and in France before returning to Castlerea to set up the first co-educational school in the town, a system of education that was very controversial at the time. On September 4th, 1940 Mean Scoil Iosef Naofa was founded at St. Patrick Street. It opened with 13 students, but by the end of the year the number had increased to 26. Mary O’Flanagan later purchased a building further down Patrick Street which was to become the school’s permanent home until free education was introduced in 1968 and then the numbers doubled. Mary O’Flanagan remained principal until her retirement in 1979. In 1983 it amalgamated with the Vocational School, which subsequently amalgamated with the Convent Secondary School in 1993 to form Castlerea Community School. Past pupils tell many stories of Mary O’s exploits – and she will go down in the history books as the woman who patrolled the streets to make sure that none of her students were out after 5 pm.

The Subjection of Connaught
The Subjection of Connaught The O’Conors of Connaught an Historical Memoir, compiled from a MS of The Late John O’Donovan, LL.D. with additions From the State Papers and Public Records By the Rt. Hon. Charles Owen O’Conor Don (1891) A.D. 1476-1503. Owen (Caech) “ O’Conor Don,” Son of Felim Geancach. A.D. 1474-1485. BETWEEN the death of Felim O’Conor in 1474, and the death of his son Owen in 1485, little reference is made to the latter in any of the public records of the period, from which we may safely conclude that he was more peacefully inclined than some of his predecessors. He did not immediately succeed to the chieftaincy after his father’s death, as he was in captivity at that time, and, as mentioned above, the O’Conor Don sept was for a short period represented by a certain Teige O’Conor. This Teige was killed in 1476, when Owen, surnamed Caech, or the short-sighted, assumed the chieftaincy. He married Dervorgilla, [1] the daughter of Felim Finn, O’Conor Roe, and ac- cordingly we find him and Felim Finn close allies in all the family conflicts which sub- sequently arose. These conflicts were varied by attacks made by O’Donnell upon O’Conor Sligo and the English, and for several successive years little is recorded in the Irish chron- icles save the exploits of O’Donnell. In 1478 the annalists record that disputes arose “ between Felim Finn and O’Conor Don on the one side, and the young sons of Teige O’Conor, the descendants of Felim, and the sons of O’Conor Roe on the other,” and Turlough Roe, the son of Roderic, the son of Felim, “ a choice son of a king, was slain.” At this period the English influence in Connaught was very slight.

Ballaghaderreen Labour Catchment
WDC Insights Travel to Work and Labour Catchments in the Western Region A Proﬁle of the Ballaghaderreen Labour Catchment 2019 Labour Catchments in the Western Region Ballaghaderreen Labour Catchment Introduction The Western Development Commission (WDC) commissioned All-Island Research Observatory (AIRO) at Maynooth University to undertake an analysis of the Census 2016 Place of Work Census of Anonymised Records (POWCAR) dataset. This was to provide a detailed understanding of the travel to work patterns of workers living in the Western Region. The study was also asked to examine the changes in the travel to work patterns that have occurred since the WDC produced the original report based on Census 2006 data. Travel to Work and Labour Catchments in the Western Region, published in 2018, identified 42 labour catchments in the Western Region (Census 2016). These are illustrated on Map 1 on page 5. The geographic size of the labour catchments varies considerably, ranging from Galway city with over 70,000 resident workers, to centres with fewer than 1,000 resident workers. Map 1 illustrates the labour catchments of all towns with a population greater than 1,000 in the Western Region as of April 2016. The travel to work patterns of seven towns: Galway, Sligo, Ennis, Letterkenny, Castlebar, Carrick-on-Shannon and Roscommon were examined in the main report and this is available for download on the WDC website1. To complement the existing labour catchment analysis the WDC has now produced reports for all other labour catchments associated with towns that are located entirely within the Western Region; 26 in total.

Castlerea, Co. Roscommon Quantum B E F O R E Henry Abbott S.C. Chairman Veronica Gates Barrister Joe Carey P.C. M.I.A.V.I. JUDGMENT OF THE VALUATION TRIBUNAL ISSUED ON THE 10TH DAY OF SEPTEMBER, 1993 By Notice of Appeal dated the 3rd of May, 1993 the appellant appealed against the determination of the Commissioner of Valuation in fixing a Rateable Valuation of £250.00 on the above described hereditament. The grounds of appeal as set out in the Notice of Appeal are that "the type of building did not justify the rates being applied. Further more the accounts have not shown a profit for the last two years and will not for the next 3 years. The extra burden would put very serious pressure on the appellant to keep in business". 2 The Property The property consists of a newsagents shop of 1,400 square feet and adjoining hardware shop of 1,980 square feet with supermarket of 5,536 square feet to rear and stores of 2,400 square feet to rear of supermarket. There is a first floor canteen of 481 square feet. Substantial reconstruction was carried out 1989/90 involving an extension of the supermarket and change of internal layout. Cost of reconstruction quoted at £100,000. Car park to rear with access to supermarket.

A careful note lias been made during the decade of cases where additional varieties or peculiarities in Sur- names and Christian names have come under notice in this Office, or have been reported by local Officers. In view of the revision of the Work, I addressed a special circular to the Superintendent Registrars and Registrars asking for information as to the nomenclature in their respective Districts, and I now beg to thank those Officers who have so kindly responded to my request, and in many cases furnished additional information of interest and value.

A Walk Around Ireland - County by County
A walk around Ireland - County by County This article can do little justice to the beauty and splendor that is Ireland. As we ramble around the country we will briefly mention the places that are of little acclaim - but should not be missed, to the more widely recognized locations you will find in any travel guide. These are the spots this writer has visited and will visit again, but in no way meant to suggest as the best or worst places spend a while. Ireland consists of four provinces: Leinster , Munster, Connacht and Ulster. This is Leinster - Cúige Laighean. Dublin City Co. Dublin, the largest city in Ireland, founded by the Vikings over 1,500 years ago. Being the political and commercial capital of Ireland, you will find the Presidential Residence in the Phoenix Park - the largest city park in Europe, over 1750 acres, within the city limits. Here also are many of the offices for governmental affairs, Trinity College – with the Book of Kells and Brian Boro’s harp, the General Post Office – G.P.O., a key site from the 1916 rising and and a host of museums, theaters and home to Ireland’s most famous export Guinness – at St. James Gate, where you will be able to sample the freshest pint of Guinness on the planet. Pub life is one of Ireland’s attractions and you will find an endless selection of locations to visit – but perhaps start at the “Brazenhead” one of Ireland’s oldest, licensed in 1666 but said to date from the 1300’s.

Geological history The oldest rocks in Roscommon occur in two inliers (older rocks entirely surrounded by younger rocks) north-east of Strokestown and at Slieve Bawn. These rocks are of Ordovician age and are the remnants of a former ocean floor and the roots of a long since vanished mountain chain. They are related to rocks throughout Longford, Down, and into the Southern Uplands of Scotland, but as they are so small in Roscommon, their story is best told in the other county’s leaflets. Surrounding them are some Devonian age rocks, sandstones and gravels laid down by flash floods in a poorly vegetated environment. Both Ordovician rocks and Devonian rocks are partly preserved because they have been lifted up on one side of the Strokestown Fault, which is one of the major geological structures in the county. Roscommon’s main geological history is in the Carboniferous period.
