Project Objectives • To investigate the breeding biology of swifts in County Mayo • To assess the impact of weather on parental feeding patterns • To determine the likelihood that inclement weather significantly affects the adults’ ability to rear young • To assess the possibility that low population numbers are a result of weather conditions and proximity to the Atlantic Ocean.

    ROINN COSANTA. BUREAU OF MILITARY HISTORY, 1913-21. STATEMENT BY WITNESS. 1620 DOCUMENT NO. W.S. Witness John Timony, James Connolly St., Ballina, Co. Mayo. Identity. Capt., Crossmolina Coy., Irish Volunteers, Co. Mayo. Subject. Crossmolina Company, Irish Volunteers, Co. Mayo, 1917 21. Conditions, if any, Stipulated by Witness. Nil. File No S.2944 Form B.S.M.2 STATEMENT BY MR. JOHN TIMONY James Connolly St., Ballina. I was born and reared in crossmolina in the Co. Mayo. My father was a farmer and my mother's maiden name was Keating. I remember my grandfather, who was a Fenian, telling us all about the French landing at Kilcummin in Killala Bay. He then lived at Lahardane where a number of the local Irish joined the French army. I don't think it is generally known that Humbert split his army shortly after landing, sending one force to Castlebar via Crossmolina arid Lahardane and the Windy Gap, and the other body went through Ballina and Foxford. to Castlebar. Two granduncles of mine joined up with Humbert at Lahardane and a large number of local people, under Father Conroy, C.C. of Lahardane, who was later captured by the English and hanged in Castlebar. The English suffered defeat all along the way of both. forces and at Castlebar were completely routed, and it is still called the Castlebar Races. Humbert then moved his complete army through Swinford to Collooney where he met and defeated a large English army outside the. town. He afterwards moved on to Dromohair by-passing Sligo, which is hard to explain, as there was an English garrison there which did not come out.

  • The Famine in Mayo 1845-1850
    The Famine in Mayo 1845-1850 A Mayo County Library Exhibition 1 Charles Edward Trevelyan, Assistant Secretary to the Treasury directed government relief measures during the famine, meticulously scrutinising all expenditure The Famine in Mayo 1845 - 1850 The Great Famine was one of the defining moments of Irish history. It marked a watershed in the history of the country causing a change so complete in the Irish social and economic fabric, that the people’s sensibilities would never be the same again. No longer could the Irish people trust to the land to provide constant sustenance. No longer could they rely on whatever security of tenure was allowed by the landlords, and more importantly they learned that their English political masters cared little for their plight. The Famine in Mayo is a portrait of the lives and deaths of the people as recorded by witnesses in books, newspapers and official records of that period. 1(a) The Famine in Mayo 1845 - 1850 The Potato Disease e first reports of blight appeared in September of 1845. For one third of the country’s population of eight million, the nutritious lumper potato was pratically the sole article of the diet. In County Mayo, it was estimated that nine tenths of the population depended on it. An acre and a half of land could provide enough potatoes to support a family for most of the year. Any other crops or animals the smallholder raised went to pay rent. A potato famine was a great calamity.
