Theirs were, with some exceptions, supporting rather than leading roles. In the feudal period, they were knights, not earls. Afterwards, with occasional exceptions such as Major General Patrick Purcell, who died fighting Cromwell,3 they tended to be colonels and captains rather than generals. They served as sheriffs and seneschals rather than Irish viceroys or lords deputy.

I was born in Cashel, Co. Tipperary in July, 1898. I attended the national school in Cashel until I was twelve years of age, and then, for a couple of years, I worked with farmers in the vicinity of Cashel. My father died when I was very young. About the end of the year 1914. I joined the British Army, and when the Rising of Easter took place my battalion of the Royal Irish Regiment was stationed in Richmond Barracks, Dublin, where many of the prisoners were detained during the weeks that followed the Rising. Except Pierce McCann, who was a native of Dualla, near Cashel, I knew none of the men who were prisoners. The attitude of the men of our battalion towards the prisoners was, I might say, one of sympathy and respect. After the first few executions we found ourselves listening in the early hours of the morning for the sound of shots from Kilmainham Prison and wondering how many more of the prisoners had gone to their doom.

National monuments in State care include those which are in the ownership or guardianship of the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government (DEHLG). Other owners of national monuments are empowered under Section 5 of the National Monuments Act (1930) to appoint the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government as guardian of such monuments.

    N24 Waterford to Cahir Public Consultation Constraints Study May 2021 N24 Waterford to Cahir Public Consultation Constraints Study | May 2021 Project Background and Description Kilkenny County Council, in partnership with Tipperary County Council, Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) and the Department of Transport (DoT) are developing the N24 Waterford to Cahir Project. The project has been identified for progression through pre-appraisal and early planning under the National Development Plan 2018-2027. The N24 national primary road is a strategic corridor linking the cities of Limerick and Waterford, traversing through the counties of Limerick, Tipperary and Kilkenny, with a total length of approximately 116km. The route also forms part of the strategic link between Shannon Foynes Port (via the M7, N18 and N69) and the Port of Waterford (via the N9, N25 and N29) and Rosslare Europort (via the N9 and N25). The N24 is recognised as being of importance in enhancing regional connectivity and increasing accessibility to key towns it passes through, including Tipperary Town, Cahir, Clonmel, Carrick-on-Suir, Mooncoin and other rural hinterland. The section of the N24 being considered by this project is approximately 60km in length. It extends from the M8 Junction 10 Cahir North Roundabout, north of Cahir in Co. Tipperary to the southern terminal of the M9 Dublin to Waterford motorway at the Quarry Roundabout, north of Waterford City in Co. Kilkenny. National Road projects are progressed through Phases 0 to 7 in line with TII’s Project Management Guidelines.The need for intervention has been identified in Phase 1 (Concept and Feasibility) and project specific objectives have been established.

  • 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.
