Since the founding of the Cincinnati chapter in 1868, the society has maintained a tradition of openness to Irish as well as non-Irish men of goodwill, without regard to ethnic or religious origin. There were two predecessors to the Cincinnati Society - Philadelphia, founded in 1771 and New York, founded in 1784. With God’s blessing we look forward to another century of fraternity and service. 2 George A. Doherty First President of the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick in the City of Cincinnati 1868 “The Friendly Sons of St. Patrick - We meet tonight unshackled by sectarianism untrammeled by politics” Dr. George A. Doherty First Banquet, St. Nicolas Hotel March 17th, 1869 3 "A Society distinguished for the firm adherence of its Members to the glorious cause in which we are embarked" - Gen. George Washington 4 Marc f. Shiels President 5 History of the Shiels Family “The Irish surname Shiels allegedly originates from the counties Antrim, Derry, Donegal, and Down. The Gaelic form is O’Siadhail usually Anglicized in it’s present form Shiel, Sheils, Shields and Sheilds. Although claiming descent from the legendary and much feared High King Niall of the Nine Hostages, the O’Shiels were known as a family of hereditary physicians rather than a territorial sept. The most famous was Murtagh O’Shiel who was physician to MacCoughlan.” My Great-grandfather, Hugh Shiels, arrived in the United Sates from Roscommon in 1850. Little is known when he made his way and what he did in Cincinnati until the outbreak of the Civil War when he volunteered in 1861 in the 67th Ohio Regiment. Hugh rose to the rank of Captain during the war and completed his service in 1864. Hugh and his wife, Mary, had two sons Charles F. and Joseph E. Upon his return to Cincinnati the assumption is he worked in the lumber trade. In the 1870 Williams Cincinnati Directory he is listed as a manufacturer of veneer and cabinet maker’s lumber. Hugh left Cincinnati in 1888 moving to California and getting into the sawmill business for several firms and then eventually for himself. He retired and died in San Diego in 1902. My Grandfather, Charles F. Shiels, after working in the lumber trade in Cincinnati for several decades, started his own lumber business, Charles F. Shiels & Company, in 1891. His brother, Joseph, went to work for Charles shortly after the company was formed and worked there until he passed away in 1928. Charles married Ida Shrimpton and had eight children: Helen, Charles Jr., Alfred, Paul, William Eugene (S.J.), Mary Alice, then in 1910 had twins Elaine (Foley) and my father, Richard. After attending the University of Notre Dame, and then working for a number of years and becoming the Assistant Sawmill Manager for Potlatch Forests, Inc. in Lewiston, Idaho “Dick” returned to Cincinnati at the behest of his father in 1936 . Charles F. Shiels died in 1945 and his son, Paul, assumed ownership of the business. When Paul died in 1950 Richard bought the business from Paul’s widow, Frieda. 6 “Dick” married Marjorie DuBrul, the eighth of eleven children of Ernest F. and Anna McKenzie DuBrul, in 1939 and raised a family of eleven children: Patricia L. Carr, Hugh I. M.D., Mary C. McCarty, Elizabeth M. (Ph.D.), Frances A. Eagen, Daniel R., Marc F., Regina M. Davis, William Eugene II D.O., (deceased), Janet C. Nelson, and Martha A. Summa. The tradition of the Shiels being physicians was not lost as you can see. Richard’s untimely death in 1968 at the age of 58 forced Marjorie, who had eight children living at home at the time, to take over the lumber business which she ran for twenty years. During those twenty years sons Dan and Marc worked in the business and a smooth transition followed in 1988. Dan left the company in 2010. I purchased Dan’s half of the company and am running it today in it’s 128th year of operation. I married Leslie Glass in 1983 and we currently reside in Cincinnati. I graduated from the University of Cincinnati in 1973 after being a founding member and instrumental (first President) in the formation of the University of Cincinnati Rugby Football Club in 1971 which led me to also being one of the founding members (first Club Captain) of the Cincinnati Rugby Football Club in 1974. My affiliation with the club continues to this day. I was a player coach (backs) for six years then my coaching career culminated in serving as the Head Coach (1989-1999) and taking the club to it’s first USA Rugby National Championship competition in 1996. After a year-long hiatus I was called back to coaching by the University of Cincinnati Rugby Football Club which I coached (2000-2006) until my old friend and rugby mate, Mike Barrett, took over the reins. I first became aware of the Society of the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick when my former rugby coach, G.J.P. Mulvany, called me in late 1984 and said, “we’re starting a glee club, and you’re in!” I joined and have been a part of the growth and development of the glee club since it’s inception. I served on the Board of the Friendly Sons Foundation for two years while Kevin Connor was President. Patrick Lindsay encouraged me to run for President of the Society and I am fortunate to have the honor to serve for the 150th Anniversary of the Society of the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick, Cincinnati. “God bless.” 7 Honored Speaker Jimmy Deenihan was born in 1952 in Co. Kerry Ireland. He was educated at St. Michaels College, Listowel, St. Marys College Strawberry Hill, Twickenham, London and the National College of Physical Education in Limerick. After graduating from college in 1975 he took up a position in Tarbert Comprehensive School, Co. Kerry as History and Physical Education teacher. He resigned from teaching when he entered politics in 1983. Jimmy also enjoyed great success on the playing field winning 5 All-Ireland Championships with Kerry and numerous Jimmy Deenihan other honors. He also played under age Rugby with the renowned Garryowen club in Limerick. During his playing career he toured the USA on numerous occasions and played in exhibition games in New York, Chicago, Boston, San Francisco and Los Angeles. While on these visits he built up a strong rapport with the Irish Diaspora which has continued since and flourished during his many years in Politics. In November 1983 Jimmy was approached by Fine Gael, one of the largest political parties in Ireland to run for election to the Irish Parliament. Narrowly missing out on being elected he was subsequently appointed to the Irish Senate by the then Prime Minister, Garrett Fitzgerald. In 1987 he was elected to Parliament and served there in various capacities both in government and opposition until February 2016. From 1994 to 1997 he served as Minister of State for Food and Rural Development, 2011-2014, Minister for Arts and Heritage and from 2014-2016 Ireland's first Minister for the Diaspora. In opposition he served as spokesperson for Defence, Education, Tourism, Sport, Environmental Protection and Youth Affairs at different times. He was recognized by friend and foe alike as one of the hardest working TD’s in Dail Eireann. In the late 1980’s he visited Capitol Hill on a number of occasions lobbying for Immigration Reform because of the large number of undocumented Irish in the USA at that time. He also established a Sister-City twinning relationship between his home town Listowel and Los Gatos, CA in 1994. Over the years Jimmy developed very positive working relationships with a number of US Ambassadors in Dublin and many of them visited Co. Kerry to spend time with him there. Jimmy also has a long association with The Friendly Sons of St. Patrick, San Diego. Since he retired from Politics Jimmy has taken up the position of Vita Project Ambassador to Eritrea in Africa. He is living with his wife Mary who is a retired teacher in Listowel, Co. Kerry 8 Our Honored Guest This year’s Honored Guest is Douglas F.

  • The Reemergence of Emigration from Ireland
    THE RE-EMERGENCE OF EMIGRATION FROM IRELAND NEW TRENDS IN AN OLD STORY By Irial Glynn with Tomás Kelly and Piaras Mac Éinrí TRANSATLANTIC COUNCIL ON MIGRATION THE RE-EMERGENCE OF EMIGRATION FROM IRELAND New Trends in An Old Story By Irial Glynn with Tomás Kelly and Piaras Mac Éinrí December 2015 Acknowledgments Much of the research on which this report is based was carried out as a result of a one-year Irish Research Council grant, which enabled the completion of the EMIGRE (“EMIGration and the propensity to REturn”) project at University College Cork between October 2012 to September 2013. The resulting paper was completed with the support of a Marie Curie Intra-European Fellowship within the 7th European Community Framework Program. Thanks go to Natalia Banulescu-Bogdan and Kate Hooper from the Migration Policy Institute for their insightful comments on earlier drafts. This research was commissioned by the Transatlantic Council on Migration, an initiative of the Migration Policy Institute (MPI), for its twelfth plenary meeting, held in Lisbon. The meeting’s theme was “Rethinking Emigration: A Lost Generation or a New Era of Mobility?” and this paper was one of the reports that informed the Council’s discussions. The Council is a unique deliberative body that examines vital policy issues and informs migration policymaking processes in North America and Europe. The Council’s work is generously supported by the following foundations and governments: Open Society Foundations, Carnegie Corporation of New York, the Barrow Cadbury Trust, the Luso- American Development Foundation, the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, and the governments of Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, and Sweden.

Baseball Ireland Tours New England Baseball Ireland is a 21-year-old organization that has taken America’s pastime and spread it widely around the Emerald Isle in three active divisions – adult, youth, and cadet. There are ten teams in the league, seven of them in Dublin with the others playing out of Belfast and Wicklow. Last month, a team made up of adult players and another full of Little Leaguers, took their gloves and balls to New England where they toured across three states over the last two weeks, with a stop on Sunday the 25th at Cunningham Park in Milton where the Irish Nationals played an exhibition against players from the regional Yawkey League in front of an enthusiastic gathering of fans, friends, and neighbors. The Irish squads spent most of their time play- ing at sites in Rhode Island, but they found time for games in Brockton (July 18) and Connecticut (July 23).

  • Global Irish Civic Forum Programme
    Global Irish Civic Forum Dublin Castle, Dublin, Ireland 3rd–4th June, 2015 UCD CLINTON INSTITUTE for AMERICAN STUDIES This report is available online at: www.dfa.ie/media/globalirish/global-irish-irelands-diaspora-policy.pdf This report is available online at: www.ucdclinton.ie A Message from Charles Flanagan T.D., Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade As part of ‘Global Irish: Ireland’s Diaspora Policy’ which was launched in March of this year, the Government committed to holding the first Global Irish Civic Forum. Its purpose: to bring together representatives of groups working with the Irish community around the world to facilitate the sharing of ideas. This Forum is also an opportunity for the Government to thank you for the superb work which you undertake in supporting our emigrants as they make new lives often far from home. The Government is very conscious of the welfare of our emigrants abroad. Since 2004 the Emigrant Support Programme, administered by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, has been a tangible expression of the Government’s support, commitment to, and interest in, the welfare of Global Irish communities. Over the years funding has been provided to the multitude of organisations working with our communities abroad, especially the most vulnerable. Since my appointment as Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade, I have had the pleasure of meeting many of you – I look forward to seeing you again and to meeting others for the first time over the course of the Global Irish Civic Forum. I am particularly pleased that the backdrop to this inaugural event is steady economic recovery with the latest CSO figures showing that unemployment has dropped below 10% for the first time since 2009.

  • Potential Outcomes for the 2007 and 2011 Irish Elections Under a Different Electoral System
    Publicpolicy.ie Potential Outcomes for the 2007 and 2011 Irish elections under a different electoral system. A Submission to the Convention on the Constitution. Dr Adrian Kavanagh & Noel Whelan 1 Forward Publicpolicy.ie is an independent body that seeks to make it as easy as possible for interested citizens to understand the choices involved in addressing public policy issues and their implications. Our purpose is to carry out independent research to inform public policy choices, to communicate the results of that research effectively and to stimulate constructive discussion among policy makers, civil society and the general public. In that context we asked Dr Adrian Kavanagh and Noel Whelan to undertake this study of the possible outcomes of the 2007 and 2011 Irish Dail elections if those elections had been run under a different electoral system. We are conscious that this study is being published at a time of much media and academic comment about the need for political reform in Ireland and in particular for reform of the electoral system. While this debate is not new, it has developed a greater intensity in the recent years of political and economic volatility and in a context where many assess the weaknesses in our political system and our electoral system in particular as having contributed to our current crisis. Our wish is that this study will bring an important additional dimension to discussion of our electoral system and of potential alternatives. We hope it will enable members of the Convention on the Constitution and those participating in the wider debate to have a clearer picture of the potential impact which various systems might have on the shape of the Irish party system, the proportionality of representation, the stability of governments and the scale of swings between elections.
