  • Dunmanway on March 12, 1877

Brigade Intelligence Officer. Subject. National activities, 1913-1921. I Activities of Kerry Brigade, 1917-1921. Conditions,if any, Stipulated by Witness. Nil. File No S.773. FormB.S.M.2 STATEMENTBY TADHGKENNEDY (deceased) Ardrinane, Ardfert, Co. KERRY. I was born in a thatched house at Annascaul, County Kerry, a village on the main road between Tralee end Dingle, on 20th August 1885. The part of the village in which I was born is in the townland of Ardrinane, and the other parts of the village are in the townlands of Brackloon and Anagap. The name of the village, Annascaul, is derived from the ford at that point where the road to Dingle leads across the river Scál and is a corruption of the word, Átha-na-Scáil, meaning, in English, the River of the Hero, and the hero being Cuchulainn whose grave is reputed to be on the side of the mountain above Droumavalla, north of Annascaul. There was a controversy in the "Leader" years ago about the meaning of the word Annascaul and I remember Dr. Douglas Hyde, "Beirt Fhear" (Mr. J.J. Doyle) and Mr. D.P. Moran, editor of the "Leader", visited Annascaul to carry out investigations locally into it. My grandmother determined it for them as Átha-an-scáil by the way in which she pronounced the word and her traditional knowledge that the lake, about two miles north of the village, is known as Loch-an-Scáil, and is traditionally associated with Cuchulainn.

Was it a good decision for them to join up? Did it make life better / safer for their families? It is very difficult to write about some subjects without being biased. However if we don’t try to understand History we are in danger of making the same mistakes again. We looked at what it was like for Zara’s family, during the decade 1912 - 1922, whether they stayed in Ireland or went away to fight with the British army in World War 1.

  • Sam Maguire Memorial Park Development
    A new home for Sam... SAM MAGUIRE MEMORIAL PARK DEVELOPMENT A new home for Sam.... SAM MAGUIRE MEMORIAL PARK DEVELOPMENT THE SAM MAGUIRE PARK DEVELOPMENT In 1938 the Sam Maguire Memorial Park Committee decided to establish a Park in Dunmanway where Gaelic games would be played and which would commemorate the name of Sam Maguire. They bought a seven acre field for £650 from Eric Bernard at Underhill where the Doheny club had been playing their matches for a number of years. Due to financial constraints no development was undertaken until ownership was transferred to the Doheny club in 1956. Over the years the following developments have taken place: • The club had the field levelled and enclosed • 4 dressing rooms were built • A new entrance was added • The Park was officially opened by Dr. Donal Keenan, President of the G.A.A. in 1974 • The viewing areas to the north and south were graded • A further six acres were purchased for a second pitch • Temporary lighting was added to the second pitch • A Pavilion was constructed containing a function hall, Although these developments have surely fulfilled the aims of the original kitchen, bar and meeting room Sam Maguire Memorial Park Committee, the Doheny club now believe • A ball alley was built it necessary to take development a step further to cater for increasing • Public toilets were added. numbers and modern demands. Thus a 5 year development plan has been drawn up which will cost close to 1m euro. While it is hoped to secure government grants we will have to match any money received with finance raised by the club itself.

Setting the Scene - A look at Education in Ireland in general, and in Dunmanway in particular, prior to 1849. 2. The Model School - The Early Years! ( 1849 - 1999 ) 3. The Model School Agricultural Department. 4. The Model School - Preparatory Training School for Prospective teachers. 5. The Model School in the Twentieth Century. 6. Memories of the Model School.

Education in “The Island of Saints and Scholars” had suffered a severe blow with the dissolution of the monasteries under Henry V111 in the 16 th century. These institutions had been responsible for much of the education available in Ireland, particularly for those who could not afford private tutors. While Henry VIII did construct replacement elementary schools, (1538 onward) they were regarded as proselytising agencies; often set up by Anglican clergy and giving instruction in the English tongue. The situation was made worse by Oliver Cromwell, who in 1611 required that "All School Masters and private teachers of children we ordered to take the Oath of Supremacy, thus denying the jurisdiction of the Pope". Later the Penal Code debarred all Roman Catholics from teaching, on pain of fine or imprisonment. It was largely due to this that hedge schools flourished - They were easy to move and cheap to maintain.
