Site selection was carried out using the Forest Inventory Planning System 1998 (FIPS) and local knowledge. Surveys comprised the recording of site species lists and information at the site level on topography, management, grazing, natural regeneration, geographical situation, adjacent habitat types, invasive species, dead wood and boundaries. Relevés were recorded in each of the main stand types identified at each site. For each relevé, data were recorded on vascular plant and bryophyte cover abundance, soil type and soil chemistry, notable lichens, stand structure, and natural regeneration. Data were also incorporated from a number of external sources. This resulted in a database with data from 1,320 sites and 1,667 relevés. The relevé dataset was analysed using hierarchical clustering and indicator species analysis. Four major woodland groups were defined: Quercus petraea – Luzula sylvatica (260 relevés), Fraxinus excelsior – Hedera helix (740 relevés), Alnus glutinosa – Filipendula ulmaria (296 relevés) and Betula pubescens – Molinia caerulea (371 relevés). Further analysis of the dataset divided these four groups into twenty-two vegetation types. For each vegetation type a synoptic table of the floristic data was produced, together with a list of key indicator species, a list of example sites, summary environmental and stand structure data and a distribution map.

    Mary Purcell Dublin Diocesan Archives: Hamilton Papers (11) Here is presented the eleventh and final extract from the calendar of the papers of Dr John Hamilton (1800-62), dean and later archdeacon, and secretary to Archbishop Murray of Dublin. The papers calendared below are contained in the files numbered 36/7 to 37/4 and cover the years 1845-60. Additional calendars of some undated material have not been included in this publication but are available in the diocesan archives. The calendaring of the Hamilton papers was entirely the work of the late Mary Purcell, who had previously produced a calendar of the Murray papers, also published in several instalments in Archivium Hibernicum. Ms Purcell was the first person to undertake the considerable task of cataloguing the records contained in the Dublin diocesan archives. Her labours have contributed greatly to making the archives more accessible to researchers. I am extremely grateful to the current editor of Archivium Hibernicum, Revd Thomas O'Connor, and his predecessor, Dr Colm Lennon, for facilitating the publication of these calendars.

    A Census of Ireland, Circa 1659 With Supplementing Materials From the Poll Money Ordinance as transcribed from Pender’s printed and published edition of the Petty Census of 1659 by Cecilia L. Fabos-Becker, July, 2014 Part 1 of several parts to follow Surnames: Campbells, McCormicks, Wallaces, Wood’s, and Woods NOTE: In 2020, the entire surviving "census," that is, the 1659 Hearth Tax Rolls, were digitized and uploaded by Clan Maclochlainn. You will find the link under "Sources." However, if you want a quick look-up of a number of Scottish names, then these extracts, made before 2020, may be helpful to you. Seamus Pender, 1939, Dublin, Ireland, Published by the Stationery Office, “to be purchased directly from the Government Publications Sales Office, 3-4 College Street, Dublin, Ireland” Introduction (excerpts): In 1864, W.H. Harding announced before the Irish Royal Academy the discovery of what has been called “The Census of Ireland (1659).” He found the manuscripts in the Muniment Room of the Marquess of Lansdowne, at Lansdowne House in London, England. He made (handwritten) copies of the manuscripts before returning them to their owner. The copies are now in the Library of the Royal Irish Academy, as paper volumes 12" x 15" in size. .... Five entire counties are missing from the returns since their creation and spoilage: Cavan, Galway, Mayo, Tyrone and Wicklow. Additionally, four baronies are missing from County Corke, and nine baronies are missing from County Meath. Harding believed some sections were literally torn apart and used as kindling for household fires by servants, at times.

In March 2016 The National Board for Safeguarding Children in the Catholic Church in Ireland (NBSCCCI) produced ”Safeguarding Children Policy and Standards for the Catholic Church in Ireland” which contains a policy statement and a framework of seven child safeguarding standards and indicators which support its implementation and applies to all church personnel. On behalf of our respective dioceses, as part of the Catholic Church in Ireland, we have committed to safeguarding children by agreeing to follow this policy of the NBSCCCI and will abide by and uphold the seven standards and applicable indicators in our entire ministry and contact with children. The policy and standards of the NBSCCCI provide the framework for practice, through a one-Church approach to child safeguarding, ensuring that the same principles, procedures and practices for safeguarding children and for responding to allegations or suspicions of child abuse operate at every level and in every place throughout the Catholic Church in Ireland.
