Oyne Was Compiled by the Rev. James Hingston, Father of the Late Rev. James Hingston, LL.D 303 STATISTICAL ACCOUNT OF THE DIOCESE OF CLOYNE, COMPILED IN THE YEAlt l7i4, BY THE REV. JA'.\[ES HINGSTON. The following account of the state of the Diocese of C!oyne was compiled by the Rev. James Hingston, father of the late Rev. James Hingston, LL.D. for many years Vicar-General oftha.t diocese, of whose judicial decisions it has been said that not one of them was ever reversed on appeal. The voluminous manuscripts left by the father show him to have been a man of most patient application. In particular, he compiled an abridge• ment of the statutes in three large quarto volumes for his own use, as a justice of the peace of the county of Cork, the most curious feature of which is the penmanship. It is throughout written in roman characters of great neatness, to resemble ordinary typography.· His usual writing was in imitation of italic print. We cannot recollect the number or subjects of all his compilations, which have been lately distributed in his own family. There was, however, a list of the Students matriculated in Trinity College, Dublin, with all the particulars :relating to them, as entered in the college books; but in this there is a large interruption from about 1690 to 1720. He left also a prose translation of the Odyssey of Homer. In his collection (but by another hand) was a volume con• taining a history of the great family of Fitzgerald, in all its branches. The chief outlines however of this subject, so far as relating to the principal branches, are already published in the general history of Ireland and Lodge's Peerage. This MS. is chiefly valuable fo:r the accounts which it contains of those eminent though illegitimate branches called the White Knights, Knights of Kerry, Knights of Glyn, Seneschals of Irnokilly, &c. Of the White Knights, surnamed FitzGibbon, this work contains a very ample history. From the entry of his own matriculation it appears that Mr. Hingston entered college as a pensioner on the 10th of November, 1729, aged sixteen; that he was born at Aglish, in the county of Cork, was the son of ,vmiam Hingston, gentleman, and received his school education at Cork under the Rev. Edmond Molloy, who appears to have been the principal schoolmaster there at that period. His birthplace, Aglish, was an estate acquired hy his grandfather in 1703. Smith, writing in 1749, says, " Aglish is on the south side of the river (Lee), where there is a good house and plantations of Mr. Hingston," vol. i. p. 207 ; and at p. 310, he mentions the Rev. Mr. Hingston as residing at Kilpadder. He was instituted in 17 51 to the vicarage of Clonmeen, in the diocese of Cloyne, and in 1772 to the prebend of Donoghmore, and died in 1776. He was uncle of the learned and eminent Doctor Hales, formerly Fellow 304 STATE OF THE DIOCESE OF CLOY-SE _ of Trinity College, author of the Chronology, &c.

    Intermarriage and Other Families This page shows the interconnection between the Townsend/Townshend family and some of the thirty-five families with whom there were several marriages between 1700 and 1900. It also gives a brief historical background about those families. Names shown in italics indicate that the family shown is connected with the Townsend/Townshend elsewhere. Baldwin The Baldwin family in Co Cork traces its origins to William Baldwin who was a ranger in the royal forests in Shropshire. He married Elinor, daughter of Sir Edward Herbert of Powys and went to Ireland in the late 16th century. His two sons settled in the Bandon area; the eldest brother, Walter, acquired land at Curravordy (Mount Pleasant) and Garrancoonig (Mossgrove) and the youngest, Thomas, purchased land at Lisnagat (Lissarda) adjacent to Curravordy. Walter’s son, also called Walter, was a Cromwellian soldier and it is through his son Herbert that the Baldwin family in Co Cork derives.

  • Mechanisms of Flooding in Cork City
    National Hydrology Conference 2015 Olbert et al 03 - MECHANISMS OF FLOODING IN CORK CITY Agnieszka Indiana Olbert 1, Michael Hartnett 1, Joanne Comer 1, Stephen Nash 1 1National University of Ireland, Galway, School of Engineering and Informatics Abstract Flooding is one of the most frequent and devastating natural disasters. Many urban developments are located in estuaries where river flow and sea water merge. Cork City situated in the River Lee estuary is frequently the subject of extensive fluvial and coastal floods and is one such vulnerable location. It is chosen in this study to investigate the roles of the flood mechanisms on the extent of urban inundation. This paper provides a methodology for determination of mechanisms of urban flooding and their effects. Multiple drivers such as coastal and fluvial processes are considered to occur individually or jointly. In the assessment, interactions and dependencies between flood drivers are also included and accounted for in joint probability analysis. The patterns of flood wave propagation are investigated to establish roles of the individual flood drivers. The analysis of flooding is a multistep process involving both probabilistic and deterministic modelling where a probabilistic model provides inputs in terms of extreme sea water levels (coastal flooding) and river flows (fluvial flooding) as boundary conditions to a deterministic coastal model which simulates flood wave propagation and the extent of inundation. The MSN multi-scale nested ultra-high resolution numerical model is used to simulate 50- and 200-year extreme floods in the urban area of Cork City. Results show that the mechanism of flooding plays a crucial role in flood characteristics and inundation patterns.

St. Abban, who lived to a very advanced age and died in 650, founded a nunnery at this place, which he gave to St. Gobnata, who was descended from O'Connor the Great, Monarch of Ireland. Smith, in his history of Cork, notices the church of this establishment, but it has since fallen into decay. The parish, of which the name signifies "the Town of the Beloved," is chiefly the property of Sir Nicholas C. Colthurst, Bart.; it is situated on the River Sullane, and on the road from Cork to Killarney, and comprises 26,525 statute acres, as applotted under the tithe act, and valued at £6073. 15. per annum. The surface is very uneven, in some parts rising into mountains of considerable elevation, the highest of which is Mullaghanish: about one- half is arable and pasture land, with 70 acres of woodland. Much of the land has been brought into a state of cultivation by means of a new line of road from Macroom, which passes through the vale of the Sullane, and is now a considerable thoroughfare; and great facilities of improvement have been afforded by other new lines of road which have been made through the parish; but there are still about 16,000 acres of rough pasture and moorland, which might be drained and brought into a state of profitable cultivation.

  • 5/1 Chapter 5 the SOUTH-WEST Counties East, South and North-West CORK -- KERRY -- West LIMERICK East CORK Cobh -- Spike Island T
    Chapter 5 THE SOUTH-WEST counties East, south and north-west CORK -- KERRY -- west LIMERICK East CORK Cobh -- Spike Island Throughout the eighteenth and nineteenth century, visitors to Ireland from Britain and the Continent were appalled at the poverty of its people, and wondered at this because so much of the land was fertile. There were many reasons for the destitution, so many that Frank O'Connor neatly sidesteps them -- but he is in little doubt of the main reason: ignorance of the true condition of Ireland, on the part of its distant government, because of the difficulties involved in visiting it [1] : Books about a country usually begin with its history. Books about Ireland which do this tend to remain unread. The misunderstandings are too many... Ultimately, perhaps, all the misunderstandings can be traced to sixty miles of salt water which stretches between Britain and Ireland. O'Connor was writing in the 1940s. Mr & Mrs Hall begin their vast, chatty, obsequious (to the English reader) but well-intentioned three-volume Ireland , a hundred years earlier (1841), with a long description of the purgatory of a pre-steam crossing to Cork. They agree with O'Connor [2] : It was not alone the miserable paucity of accommodation and utter indifference to the comfort of the passengers, that made the voyage an intolerable evil. Though it usually occupied but three or four days, frequently as many weeks were expended in making it. It was once our lot to pass a month between the ports of Bristol and Cork; putting back, every now and then, to the wretched village of Pill, and not daring to leave it even for an hour, lest the wind should change and the packet weigh anchor..

    Representative Church Body Library, Dublin D 16 Records of the diocese of Cloyne. 1634-1934 A miscellaneous collection of loose papers and a few bound volumes, relating to the diocese of Cloyne, from the early seventeenth century to the early twentieth century. This includes eighteenth-century visitations and rural deanery returns; as well as many items relating to the administration of the diocese, c. 1634 - 1934. Much of the early material relates to the achievements of a succession of bishops (including George Synge, Edward Synge, William Pallister, John Pooley and Charles Crow), in regaining control lands belonging to the diocese of Cloyne, which had been unlawfully granted out of diocesan control to the Fitzgeralds and other families, by a fee-farm lease, dated 1575. The wide range of miscellaneous material in the collection includes an unusual book of oaths, which records oaths sworn by new incumbents and lay officers 1675-1717, and a rare astrological chart. The collection also contains material relating to the Archer, Purdon, Hanby, Uniacke, Barry, Longfield and related families, of counties Cork and Dublin, as well as routine diocesan business.
