  • Glenamaddy Community School Glenamaddy, Co.Galway
    Glenamaddy Community School Glenamaddy, Co.Galway 094 9659315 Visual Art Commission Percent for Art Scheme Information Brief 1 The Board of Management of Glenamaddy Community School, Glenamaddy, Co.Galway wishes to commission a Permanent Outdoor Sculpture which is to be funded by the Department of Education and Skills under the “percent for art scheme”. There is no specific theme for this project however we would expect the artist’s submissions to be influenced by the location of the school and the history and location of Glenamaddy town. BACKGROUND TO THIS PROJECT: Brief History of Glenamaddy: Glenamaddy is a small town in north-east Galway, half way between Tuam and Castlerea. It is generally accepted that both translations ‘Valley of the Dogs’ and ‘Valley of the Black Plain’, bear some relation to the local turlough. The nearby Lough Lurgeen – a raised bog rich in flora and fauna, is a National Heritage area of international importance and is one of the hidden gems of County Galway. The town itself began as a simple hamlet and from the 1820’s developed into a market town, spreading out from the meeting place of its famous ‘Four Roads’. Some areas of historical interest include the workhouse, the church and the town hall. Glenamaddy Union workhouse was erected in 1853 on the Creggs Road. Designed by George Wilkinson, architect, the building was based on one of his standard plans to accommodate five hundred inmates. The foundation stone of the church was laid on St. Patrick’s Day 1904. The church is neo- gothic with its graceful pointed arches.

  • BRIDGET BELL, Formerly CARROLL, Nee HOPKINS C1833-1915
    BRIDGET BELL, formerly CARROLL, nee HOPKINS c1833-1915 TRACING THE LONG JOURNEY OF A YOUNG ORPHAN GIRL FROM COUNTY GALWAY, IRELAND TO BOURKE, NEW SOUTH WALES, AUSTRALIA AUGUST 10, 2018 KAYE SCHOFIELD [email protected] Introduction Bridget Hopkins was one of 230 Irish orphan girls who sailed into Sydney on the ship Digby on 4 April 1849, and one of more than 4,000 orphan girls who came from 118 different Irish workhouses to Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide under the Earl Grey Famine Orphan Scheme 1848-1850. She was my maternal great-great-grandmother. While the broad arc of her long and eventful life had been documented, information was quite fragmented, details were scant and their accuracy uncertain. This story reflects my efforts to fill in some details and my continuing interest in understanding the historical context of my family’s history. I had also hoped to find Bridget’s own voice, but she has remained silent throughout. This story builds on and incorporates the efforts of many others who have been researching the Hopkins-Carroll-Bell family history for years, well before I started. In particular I would like to acknowledge the research of some of Bridget’s other descendants: the late Pat Willcox whose 2002 article on Bridget first sparked my interest in finding out more; the late Roy Mitchell, Bridget’s great- grandson, who was passionate about his family tree and genealogy and shared that knowledge freely with so many people; Marie T. Cribbin, Beth Atkinson and Karleen Reilly who, like me, are Bridget’s great-great-granddaughters and who have been so generous in sharing their research, photos and stories with me.

  • The List of Church of Ireland Parish Registers
    THE LIST of CHURCH OF IRELAND PARISH REGISTERS A Colour-coded Resource Accounting For What Survives; Where It Is; & With Additional Information of Copies, Transcripts and Online Indexes SEPTEMBER 2021 The List of Parish Registers The List of Church of Ireland Parish Registers was originally compiled in-house for the Public Record Office of Ireland (PROI), now the National Archives of Ireland (NAI), by Miss Margaret Griffith (1911-2001) Deputy Keeper of the PROI during the 1950s. Griffith’s original list (which was titled the Table of Parochial Records and Copies) was based on inventories returned by the parochial officers about the year 1875/6, and thereafter corrected in the light of subsequent events - most particularly the tragic destruction of the PROI in 1922 when over 500 collections were destroyed. A table showing the position before 1922 had been published in July 1891 as an appendix to the 23rd Report of the Deputy Keeper of the Public Records Office of Ireland. In the light of the 1922 fire, the list changed dramatically – the large numbers of collections underlined indicated that they had been destroyed by fire in 1922. The List has been updated regularly since 1984, when PROI agreed that the RCB Library should be the place of deposit for Church of Ireland registers. Under the tenure of Dr Raymond Refaussé, the Church’s first professional archivist, the work of gathering in registers and other local records from local custody was carried out in earnest and today the RCB Library’s parish collections number 1,114. The Library is also responsible for the care of registers that remain in local custody, although until they are transferred it is difficult to ascertain exactly what dates are covered.
