History of Borrisokane ,Co.Tipperary
History of Borrisokane ,Co.Tipperary. ‘Introduction’ What better way to begin an account of a Tipperary town than by referring to the following words of a poem called ‘Tipperary‘.In these lines, the poet ‘ Eva of the Nation‘ who was one of the Kellys of Killeen, Portumna,wrote: ‘O come for a while among us,and give us a friendly hand, And you‘ll see that old Tipperary is a loving and gladsome land; From Upper to Lower Ormond bright welcome and smiles will spring, On the plains of Tipperary,the stranger is like a king?‘ Yes, I think the words ring true,I`m sure, for us and about us,natives of this part of Irish soil?? It is about one particular spot ‘on the plains of Tipperary‘ that I wish to write, namely my home parish of Borrisokane?? . So I turn again to verse, which so often suggests things that mere prose cannot? In a book of poetry, ‘The Spirit of Tipperary‘ published many years ago by the Nenagh Guardian,we find a poem by Dermot F ?Gleeson who for many years was District Justice in Nenagh.He wrote under the pen-name ‘Mac Liag‘ . He writes as if from the top of Lisgorrif Hill looking down on the broad expanse of the two Ormonds with Lough Derg bordering them to the left? .The poem is simply called, ‘The place where I was born’ ‘O’er hill and mountain, vale and town, My gaze now wanders up and down, Anon my heart is filled with pride, Anon with memory’s gentler tide ‘ Of sorrow, until through them all The twilight whispers softly call From upland green and golden corn “It is the place where you were born”. -
Tipperary News Part 6
Clonmel Advertiser. 20-4-1822 We regret having to mention a cruel and barbarous murder, attended with circumstances of great audacity, that has taken place on the borders of Tipperary and Kilkenny. A farmer of the name of Morris, at Killemry, near Nine-Mile-House, having become obnoxious to the public disturbers, received a threatening notice some short time back, he having lately come to reside there. On Wednesday night last a cow of his was driven into the bog, where she perished; on Thursday morning he sent two servants, a male and female, to the bog, the male servant to skin the cow and the female to assist him; but while the woman went for a pail of water, three ruffians came, and each of them discharged their arms at him, and lodged several balls and slugs in his body, and then went off. This occurred about midday. No one dared to interfere, either for the prevention of this crime, or to follow in pursuit of the murderers. The sufferer was quite a youth, and had committed no offence, even against the banditti, but that of doing his master’s business. Clonmel Advertiser 24-8-1835 Last Saturday, being the fair day at Carrick-on-Suir, and also a holiday in the Roman Catholic Church, an immense assemblage of the peasantry poured into the town at an early hour from all directions of the surrounding country. The show of cattle was was by no means inferior-but the only disposable commodity , for which a brisk demand appeared evidently conspicuous, was for Feehans brown stout. -
The Wages Book of a Fethard Farmer, 1880-1905
TIPPERARY HISTORICAL JOURNAL 1994 © County Tipperary Historical Society www.tipperarylibraries.ie/ths [email protected] ISSN 0791-0655 The Wages Book of a Fethard Farmer, 1880-1905 By Cormac 6 Grada This note is based on the wages book of a prominent farmer from the Fethard area, Michael O'Donnell. The wages book, which is in very good condition, contains over 200 pages measuring approximately 13 inches by 6 inches. It is currently in the possession of Michael O'Donnell's grandson, Brian O'Donnell of Garrinch, Fethard.' The book covers a 20-year period between the early 1880s and the early 1990s. All the entries seem to have been made in Michael O'Donnell's own hand. Michael O'Donnell was born in 1851. The eldest of a family of seven, he seems to have acquired the farm at Bannixtown on his marriage; his wife was Maria Josephine, daughter of John Shea of Bannixtown. O'Donnell's father lived on in nearby Kilsheelan until 1895 and his mother until 1902. Michael O'Donnell himself survived to a ripe old age, dying aged 82 years in January 1933. Some years before his death he moved home from Bannixtown to Byrne's Kiln. He handed the farm and house at Bannixtown over to his youngest son Bryan. Bannixtown is situated on good land about four miles east of the town of Fethard, facing south towards Slievenamon. The wages book gives several hints of Michael's prosperity. On a fly-leaf it reports that in 1894 he insured his life for £500, and his houses etc. -

Book Reviews
TIPPERARY HISTORICAL JOURNAL 1994 © County Tipperary Historical Society www.tipperarylibraries.ie/ths [email protected] ISSN 0791-0655 Book Reviews Land, Politics and Society in Eighteenth-Century Tipperary. By Thomas P. Power. (Clarendon Press, Oxford, 1993).376 pp. IRf44. The traditional and still widespread view of the eighteenth century, from a Roman Catholic perspective, is one of persecution and suppression. With the increased assertiveness of the catholic nation after 1829, it became useful to emphasise the darkness of the eighteenth century and by contrast to highlight the distance an increasingly triumphant nationalism had come since those dark days. This view of the eighteenth century was in large measure created and propagated by concentrating on the savage letter of penal legislation, and not on the altogether more casual and at times haphazard spirit in which that legislation was enforced. This point of view can be seen in the work of such an important Tipperary historian as Canon William P. Burke. The book under review by the Waterford-born Thomas Power, and based on his 1987 Trinity College Ph.D. thesis, challenges popular assumptions about the eighteenth century, and for exposing one Irish county to academic scrutiny anyone interested in Ireland's past has reason to be grateful to him. It is a comment on the underdeveloped state of local or regional history in Ireland that it is still found necessary to justify such a study, even though the time is long past when comfortable national generalisations on certain topics adequately illuminate the past. By taking this county as his area for study, Dr Power has not only opened out a hitherto murky period but has also cast a new light on the better known nineteenth century. -
