ALPHABETICAL INDEX TO PRIVATELY DEPOSITED RECORDS December 2007 Introduction Under the Public Records Act (Northern Ireland) the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland (PRONI) is permitted to accept into its care any record that it deems worthy of preservation, whether or not that record was generated by a Government Department or a Non-Departmental Public Body. This permission allows PRONI to accept records from private individuals, from businesses, charities, social and sporting organisations, religious bodies and political parties. All records donated are evaluated for their historical value and, if of sufficient importance, PRONI is happy to accept them, either as an outright gift, or as a long- term loan. Most of these records can be opened to the public immediately after they have been catalogued but, as in some cases the depositors retain control over access to their papers, not all privately deposited archives are open to the public. If you wish to access information in an archive which is closed to the public, you can make a request via the PRONI Records Management, Cataloguing and Access Team. ALPHABETICAL INDEX TO 'D', 'T' AND 'MIC' LISTS PLEASE NOTE: This alphabetical index has been produced from three numerical indexes of lists and not from the lists themselves. In order to produce a shorter and more compact index, lists with identical, or near-identical, titles have been grouped together – see, for example, the entry for Abercorn below. Users are warned that in some cases the groups of references may relate to more than one family with the same name. Similarly, because the titles of some of the earlier lists are inconsistent, uninformative or even misleading, it is possible that many such connections have not been made.

    Barge 1 Lagan Waterway and History

    LAGAN WATERWAY HISTORY Navigable waterways Prior to the advent of canals and railways in the 1700s and 1800s, packhorses and horses and carts or packhorse were the main means of moving stuff. Although Ireland has had a good road network since the 1600s, such roads were poorly surfaced and not always well maintained. The loads transported were thus limited by the hauling power of the horses and condition of the roads. Bulky, low-value goods such as coal, building materials and grain were particularly expensive to transport. Railways solved this problem, but only after the development of reliable steam locomotives in the mid-1800s. Before then, rivers were the cheapest way of moving large heavy loads where speed was not essential. Except for their tidal sections however, most rivers were not navigable for any great distance and the size of boats, and thus of the loads carried, was invariably limited by obstructions such as shallows, rapids and weirs. Navigations and canals Navigable waterways are of two types – navigations and canals. Navigations are existing natural watercourses whose navigability has been improved, whereas canals are entirely artificial channels excavated by hand and/or machine. The pros and cons of each type of waterway are as follows: For Against Navigations No major civil engineering works Prone to strong currents in winter and required so relatively cheap. lack of water in summer, both of which may make navigation temporarily impossible. [This was certainly the case on the Lagan] Summer water shortages are potentially exacerbated by demands of mill owners with prior rights to abstract water from the river.

    Sources of Plants For, and Distribution of Plants From, the Royal Dublin Society’S Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin, 1795–1879: an Annotated Checklist

    NORTHERN IRELAND HERITAGE GARDENS TRUST OCCASIONAL PAPER, No. 7 (2016) Sources of plants for, and distribution of plants from, the Royal Dublin Society’s Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin, 1795–1879: an annotated checklist E. Charles Nelson In The brightest jewel: a history of the National Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin, Dublin (Nelson & McCracken 1987), we accounted briefly for the many sources of plants grown in the Gardens throughout its history. Manuscript registers of plants (including seeds and other propagules) donated to [●], and those distributed from [✧], the Gardens survive especially for the decades following the appointment of Ninian Niven as Curator in 1834. Niven seems to have been the first to make a continuous record of donated and distributed plants – for the period before 1834 records are scattered, scanty and almost certainly very incomplete. In this checklist, the records for Niven’s curatorship (1834–1838) have been combined with those sparse records that have been recovered for the previous three decades, as well as those for David Moore’s curatorship (1838–1879). Moore, like Niven, seems to have taken personal responsibility for keeping a register of donations to and from the Gardens. In terms of the names of the plants, the manuscript registers for the pre-1880 years provide disappointingly little detail. The full names of the plants received or shared were rarely recorded – in the following checklist fewer than 130 species' names are included (and some of these have been inferred from the vernacular names employed), a ratio of one plant name for every seven donors/recipients. In short, the register of donations cannot account for the thousands of plants that were certainly cultivated in the Glasnevin Botanic Gardens between its formation in 1795 and the death of David Moore in June 1879.

The monument is located on the northwestern edge of Downpatrick. In 2012 an episodic programme of archaeological fieldwork, consisting of topographic and geophysical survey followed by a limited season of excavation, was undertaken at the monument with the aim of refining and expanding the known archaeological sequence of the site with a view to improving both its public presentation and informing any future management strategy developed for the site. The archaeological investigations formed part of a wider programme of works commissioned by the Northern Ireland Environment Agency that were intended to make the monument more presentable and attractive to both the local public and visitors from further afield.

    Club Model: Case Study of Good Practice

    Club Model: Case Study of Good Practice Ballynahinch RFC Model Club section: Area of good practice: Workforce Development/Community Volunteer Development/Sport in the Engagement Community Club Model: Case Study of Good Practice Overview Ballynahinch RFC have been continuously involved in the Sport Uniting Communities programme. Following on from their club members attending a Volunteer Development Day the club has benefitted from various initiatives both on and off the pitch. The intended outcomes from their involvement in a cross- community volunteer development programme were: • To increase knowledge around recruitment, retention and reward of club volunteers • To create close links with other local sports clubs from Gaelic and Football backgrounds • To get the opportunity to learn how other sports manage volunteers • To avail of any future opportunities for club members and volunteers to be involved with the programme The steps Ballynahinch have taken for this to be a success and the positive impacts are highlighted across the next few slides. Club Model: Case Study of Good Practice What was delivered? In Year 1 (2018) of the Programme Ballynahinch attended the Volunteer Development Day in Banbridge and in Year 3 (2020) they attended an Online Volunteer Development Presentation with clubs from GAA and Football. They had planned to send a number of volunteers and committee members to a Volunteer Development event which had to be cancelled due to the pandemic. As a result of their attendance at our VDP events Ballynahinch have also been involved in other aspects of the programme. Their young members have been involved in our Game of 3 Halves events, valued volunteer club members have been on Stadium tours of Kingspan Stadium, The National Football Stadium at Windsor Park and Croke Park, young volunteers have been accredited through our GoldMark scheme and the club were awarded a sports equipment pack due to their prolonged, sustained involvement within the Sports Uniting Communities Prog ramme.

    1951 Census Down County Report

    GOVERNMENT OF NORTHERN IRELAND CENSUS OF POPULATION OF NORTHERN IRELAND 1951 County of Down Printed & presented pursuant to 14 & 15 Geo. 6, Ch, 6 BELFAST : HER MAJESTY'S STATIONERY OFFICE 1954 PRICE 7* 6d NET GOVERNMENT OF NORTHERN IRELAND CENSUS OF POPULATION OF NORTHERN IRELAND 1951 County of Down Printed & presented pursuant to 14 & 15 Geo. 6, Ch. 6 BELFAST : HER MAJESTY'S STATIONERY OFFICE 1954 PREFACE Three censuses of population have been taken since the Government of Northern Irel&nd was established. The first enumeration took place in 1926 and incorporated questions relating to occupation and industry, orphanhood and infirmities. The second enumeration made in 1937 was of more limited scope and was intended to bridge the gap between the census of 1926 and the census which it was proposed to take in 1941, but which had to be abandoned owing to the outbreak of war. The census taken as at mid-night of 8th-9th April, 1951, forms the basis of this report and like that in 1926 questions were asked as to the occupations and industries of the population. The length of time required to process the data collected at an enumeration before it can be presented in the ultimate reports is necessarily considerable. In order to meet immediate requirements, however, two Preliminary Reports on the 1951 census were published. The first of these gave the population figures by administrative areas and towns and villages, and by Counties and County Boroughs according to religious pro­ fession. The Second Report, which was restricted to Counties and County Boroughs, gave the population by age groups.
