  • A Seed Is Sown 1884-1900 (1) Before the GAA from the Earliest Times, The
    A Seed is Sown 1884-1900 (1) Before the GAA From the earliest times, the people of Ireland, as of other countries throughout the known world, played ball games'. Games played with a ball and stick can be traced back to pre-Christian times in Greece, Egypt and other countries. In Irish legend, there is a reference to a hurling game as early as the second century B.C., while the Brehon laws of the preChristian era contained a number of provisions relating to hurling. In the Tales of the Red Branch, which cover the period around the time of the birth of Christ, one of the best-known stories is that of the young Setanta, who on his way from his home in Cooley in County Louth to the palace of his uncle, King Conor Mac Nessa, at Eamhain Macha in Armagh, practised with a bronze hurley and a silver ball. On arrival at the palace, he joined the one hundred and fifty boys of noble blood who were being trained there and outhurled them all single-handed. He got his name, Cuchulainn, when he killed the great hound of Culann, which guarded the palace, by driving his hurling ball through the hound's open mouth. From the time of Cuchulainn right up to the end of the eighteenth century hurling flourished throughout the country in spite of attempts made through the Statutes of Kilkenny (1367), the Statute of Galway (1527) and the Sunday Observance Act (1695) to suppress it. Particularly in Munster and some counties of Leinster, it remained strong in the first half of the nineteenth century.

Abstracts are included for all papers up to 1864, but excluding any entries in the Belfast Newsletter prior to 1801, as they are fully available online. Dr Smythe-Wood often found entries in several newspapers for the one event, & these will be shown as one entry below. Entries dealing with RIC Officers, Customs & Excise Officers, Coastguards, Prison Officers, & Irish families in Canada will be dealt with in separate files, although a small cache of Canadian entries is included here, being families closely associated with Co Tyrone. In most cases, Dr Smythe-Wood has recorded the exact entry, but in some, marked thus *, the entries were adjusted into a database, so should be treated with more caution. There are further large card indexes of Miscellaneous notes on families which are not at present being digitised, but which often deal with the same families treated below.

  • Council Grants Comparison Council Grants Comparison
    COUNCIL GRANTS COMPARISON The Review of Public Administration and Local Government Reform, the development of community planning, the Social Investment Fund, and other political and administrative changes in Northern Ireland mark a unique opportunity to reassert the principles of community development and good relations and, in particular, where these sit within local authorities. In recognition of this opportunity, the Community Foundation for Northern Ireland has recently completed a substantial research project through its Causeway Communities Engagement Programme. This series of 5 ‘In-Brief’ publications summarises the findings from this research and some of the policy implications. This series of 5 In-Brief publications has been completed through the Community Foundation for Northern Ireland’s Causeway Communities Engagement Programme. The Causeway Communities Engagement Programme (CCEP) is a pilot initiative to build community capacity and engagement in selected areas in each of the four Council areas involved in the proposed Causeway Coast & Glens Council (Ballymoney, Coleraine, Limavady and Moyle). It began in January 2012 and is scheduled to run until December 2014. The Programme is funded by the International Fund for Ireland, Atlantic Philanthropies and the Community Foundation for Northern Ireland. The key aims of CCEP are: — Developing relationships and capacity, sharing and learning, meeting local needs; — Addressing future political and administrative changes; — Linking local communities and groups with agencies and Council functions; — Tackling community tensions and divisions; — Addressing the legacy of the conflict; — Sharing the process model and policy lessons with other Council areas and policy makers. There is a huge variation in community development and good relations grants and support programmes across the current 26 District Councils.

  • The Cobanes in Ireland by Shirley De Renzo
    The Cobanes in Ireland by Shirley De Renzo Family tradition passed down among the Cobanes in Ireland indicates the family had early origins on the European continent, most likely the country of France. They were said to be French Huguenots who fled the country because of religious persecution. Webster’s Dictionary describes Huguenots as, “French Protestants, adherent of a Swiss political movement begun in 1532 by Swiss political leader Besancon Hugues and active in the 16th and 17th centuries.” The original name of the Cobanes is said to have been De Gobienne, but over the years we have seen the surname spelled many different ways: Cobane, Cobeans, Cobain, Cabane and even Cobine. They are all believed to be of the same family. The Cobane family arrived on the eastern shores of Northern Ireland around the year 1640. They traveled up the Blackwater River and settled in the area of Aughnacloy, Ballygawley and Skey in the Parish of Carnteel. Records have been discovered which document the presence of Cobanes in Carnteel Parish in the mid-1700’s. There are two leases filed with the Registry of Deeds, the first of which is dated 13 January 1748 and the second 14 January 1748. The first document states that one Acheson Moore, Esq. who was then owner of all of Skey Townland, agreed to lease to Thomas, Joseph, and Samuel Cobane (Cobeans) sixty acres plantation measure for and during their natural lives for the yearly rent of twelve pounds six shillings sterling. The second lease was identical in text except that the grantees were John and James Cobane (Cobeans) for another sixty acre plot and was for the duration of the lives of the above two and for and during the natural life of John’s son, also named James, who was approximately two years of age at the time.
