John Reilly 1810 THE O REILLY OF MOHERREAGH John James Reilly 2006 To my son Edward James Reilly Eighth Generation Reilly This family history is my gift to you. Thanks for making the trip to Ireland possible. 1 Edward James Reilly May 31, 1978 John James Reilly September 25, 1952 Edward Reilly January 10, 1926 Edward Joseph Reilly February 18, 1900 Patrick Joseph Reilly September 9, 1870 Edward “Ned” Reilly 1837 John Reilly 1810 Edward Reilly 1780 2 The O Reilly of Moherreagh The earliest known record of the O Reilly of Moherreagh, which means “hill of the deer,” date to the 1820’s. Moherreagh (more-her-ray) is a townland in west Cavan County, Ireland and is listed in the Tithe Book (a tax record) of 1823-1827. The townland is recorded in the Tithe Book as being about 100 acres. There are 11 families named as living in Moherreagh. Each family is identified by the name of the head of the household. They are tenant farmers leasing from a man named R. Hutton. In this Tithe Book record an Edward Reilly is listed. This is the first reference to an O Reilly from Moherreagh in the historical records. There are no other historical records available which pre-date the Tithe Book. Back dating from Edward Reilly’s descendants it would be fair to say that he was born circa 1780. He is the first O Reilly of Moherreagh that can be established. The Tithe Book Edward Reilly is noted in the Moherreagh listing as having 6 acres, 2 rood and 39 perches. Through a three tier system known as the Tithe Applotment which taxed certain types and usage of land Edward Reilly was allotted to pay 2 shillings 11 pence. This would amount to about 10% of the yearly income produced by the farm. It was collected to support the protestant Church of Ireland the government established church. Everyone was to pay whether Protestant or not. The Tithe was a point of contention for Roman Catholics who fiercely resisted being forced to pay in support of the protestant Church of Ireland. 3 Griffith’s Valuation: John O Reilly The next reference to an O Reilly of Moherreagh is found in what is called Griffith’s Valuation; an effort to record the owner, tenant and amount of all land in Ireland for tax purposes. Griffith’s Valuation for all counties was published between 1847 and 1864. The name of a John Reilly is listed for the Townland of Moherreagh in the Parish of Templeport. Moherreagh is now 195 acres of which John Reilly is “occupier” of 13 acres, 1 rood and 11 perches; the owner being Robert Hutton. The total annual valuation is now 3 pounds and 10 shillings. The birth of John Reilly can be set circa 1810. The name John Reilly of Moherreagh is mentioned again in a marriage record of the Roman Catholic Chapel in Swanlinbar, Cavan County, Ireland of 1866. (Moherreagh is just a short distance from Swanlinbar) The following information comes from the marriage record. On the twenty ninth day of November, 1866 there is recorded the marriage of an Edward “Ned” Reilly. He is a 28 year old bachelor. Edward is a farmer from Moherreagh. His father is listed as a John Reilly, also a farmer from Moherreagh. On November 29, 1866 Edward Reilly married Rosy Reilly, a 20 year old maid and farmer’s daughter from Drumcanon, whose father’s name is Matthew Reilly. The townland of Drumcanon is located a short distance across a valley from Moherreagh. From Moherreagh it is easy to look across and see Drumcanon. A P. Whelan P.P., the newly arrived priest for Swanlinbar married Edward and Rose, five days after his arrival. The witnesses were a James McGovern, who is listed by Griffith’s Valuation as being from Moherreagh and a 4 Mary Reilly. Now back dating from the 1866 wedding with Edward Reilly at 28 years old would put his birth circa 1837 and circa 1846 for 20 year old Rose. Oral family history holds that Edward and his twin bother Farrell were just babies when “The Night of the Big Wind” took place all across Ireland. This is according to Frank O Reilly of Moherreagh who at age 87 is the patriarch of the O Reilly family of Moherreagh and Swanlinbar. (Tradition of dating people and events in reference to the Big Wind.) Edward and Rose O Reilly What is known about Edward and Rose O Reilly comes from Mr. Frank O Reilly who is the son of Michael O Reilly the youngest son of Edward and Rose; and their grandson. Edward and Rose farmed at Moherreagh. They lived off of what they grew or raised on their hillside farm. Cows, chickens, sheep, pigs, eggs, milk, vegetable garden and hay sustained them. They were known as “butter buyers.” They would produce their own butter from the milk of their three cows. Then they would go down into Swanlinbar to the “Old Market” and buy butter from other farmers to resell all the butter in Eniskillen or Beltubert. The couple would walk the 15 miles from Swanlinbar, behind a donkey that was carrying the butter and cream, to Eniskillen in order to sell their product. Both Edward and Rosy died in the spring of 1921. Frank O Reilly, a small child at the time remembers the event because there were lots potatoes in the potatoes bins. 5 Ned was in the “lower room” of the house which was slightly down hill. Rosy was by his side. Both were very elderly. When Edward passed away she asked to be taken to the “upper room” of the house in order to lie down because she was not feeling well. She died 20 minutes later. Frank remembers the coffins lay out on the potatoes in the potato bin because it was the coolest place to keep coffins until burial. The next day the funeral procession went from the house at Moherreagh to the Killaduff Cemetery about four miles from Moherreagh. A hearse took one of the coffins and the other was carried all the way to the cemetery. Killaduff Cemetery Edward and Rose O Reilly are buried together in front of the ruins of the St. Tigernach Roman Catholic Church at Killaduff Cemetery. Only the East Wall and some foundational stones remain. The stone church dates to the 15th century, during the Reformation; and it is said that the church was built in one night. Today Edward and Rose O Reilly and Michael and Mary Ann O Reilly, the grandparents and parents of Frank O Reilly lie side by side in front of the old church. Each August the Swanlinbar Roman Catholic Church holds a mass at the cemetery and there is an annual collection for its upkeep. The Killaduff Cemetery is beautifully maintained by the faithful with the ruins of the St. Tigernach Church and older portion of the cemetery at the top of the hill and the newer section of the cemetery sweeping down the hill in front. 6 The Children of Ned and Rose Ned and Rose O Reilly were married on November 29, 1866 and had 9 children between the years 1870 and 1885. A baptismal register from the Templeport RC Parish gives their names and date of baptism. Patt 10-Sep-1870 Marget 26-Feb-1872 Bridget 01-Nov-1873 Mary 25-Aug-1875 John 13-Jan-1877 Rosanne 05-Oct-1878 Ellen 17-Jul-1880 Francis 22-Apr-1883 Michael 18-Nov-1885 Edward and Rose O Reilly are listed as the parents of each child. The named sponsors for each baptism are either an O Reilly family member or of a neighbor from Moherreagh or Drumcanon. Mostly likely the O Reilly are brothers and sisters or aunts and uncles of Edward and Rose. The 1901 and 1911 Census of Ireland of the Townland Moherreagh, County Cavan, Poor Law Union of Bawnboy, Barony of Tullyhaw, the Parish of Templeport and 7 the Electoral District of Teircahan offers further information about The O Reilly family. 1901 Ireland Census The 1901 Census of Ireland lists the O Reilly of Moherreagh. Edward “Ned” is still head of the family at age 61 with the occupation of farmer. His wife Rose is 55. There are still four of the original nine children at the farm. They are: Bridget, a framer’s daughter, age 22; Ellen, a farmer’s daughter, age 19; Francis, a farm laborer, age 16 and Michael, in school, age 14. Each family member is listed as being Roman Catholic, being born in County Cavan and being able to read and write, except for Rose who can only read. Five of the children by 1901 are no longer at the farm: Patt, Marget, Mary, John and Rosanne. The farm house is described as being made of stone and having three rooms. It would be far to say that at one time 2 adults and 9 children lived in this three room house. Besides the house the farm is described as having: a stable, a cow house, a dairy, a piggery and a fowl house. 1911 Ireland Census For the 1911 Ireland census Edward O Reilly is now 74 and Rose is 69 and they have been married for 45 years. A barn has been added to the buildings beside the house. Only Michael remains at the farm; he is 24 and single. Of the nine children born to Edward and Rose only 7 are living in 1911. Four of the children, between 1890 and 1911 have gone to America: Patt, Bridget, John and Francis.

    SITE SYNOPSIS SITE NAME: SLIEVE RUSHEN BOG NHA SITE CODE: 000009 Slieve Rushen Bog NHA is an extensive upland blanket bog, occurring on the south- east margin of the Cuilcagh Mountain range, approximately 6.5 km south-east of Swanlinbar, Co. Cavan. The northern and north-eastern sides of the site adjoin the international border with Northern Ireland. Conifer plantations extending to the mountain plateau form parts of the north-west, west, south and south-eastern boundaries. Site boundaries in the areas between these plantations include the perimeter of wind power installations, turbary ground and transitions to rough pasture and semi-improved agricultural lands. The townlands covered by the site include Aghanacally, Ballynamadoo, Corneen, Finaghoo, Gortnavreeghan, Legavregra, Finthilough and Mullanacre Upper. This large site occurs on a broad-topped mountain ridge, with a smaller parallel ridge to the north-west, with flat plateaux and gently sloping areas between the ridges. Bedrock geology is shale and sandstone. In flat and gently sloping terrain the blanket bog is very intact, with wet and locally quaking areas, occasional bog pools and excellent hummock-hollow development. Intact bog moss hummocks up to 1 m wide are common. The higher slopes support drier mountain blanket bog and dry heath habitat, while the lower slopes within the site are covered by dry heath, upland grassland and cutover bog. The areas of intact blanket bog vegetation are dominated by Ling Heather (Calluna vulgaris), Deergrass (Scirpus cespitosus) and cottongrasses (Eriophorum spp.), frequent swards of Purple Moor-grass (Molinia caerulea) and abundant Cross-leaved Heath (Erica tetralix) and Bog Asphodel (Narthecium ossifragum).

  • Recent Settlement Change in County Cavan, 1981-2011 RUTH MCMANUS
    Recent settlement change in County Cavan, 1981-2011 RUTH MCMANUS Introduction Cavan is considered by many to be part of Ireland’s rural heartland, a county of small towns and scenic countryside. This landlocked county of lakes and rolling hills has a timeless image, exploited in its tourism promotion as ‘the Lakeland county’ and a haven for fishing, boating and rural pursuits. However, the period from 1981 to 2011 has seen the emergence of a changed landscape, which challenges these assumptions. This chapter considers the changing nature of the Cavan landscape over the past thirty years, focusing on how this change reflects new patterns of housing, employment and population structure. Cavan before the economic boom At 53,855 in 1981, the population of County Cavan had increased slightly from the all-time low recorded a decade previously. However, the issue of depopulation was an ever-present one. The century had seen a consistent drop in population from a high of 91,173 in 1911. Indeed, Figure X.1 and Table X.1, which shows the population of the county from the first census in 1841, reveals a consistent fall in numbers over more than 130 years. Little wonder, then, that reports of population growth during the boom years were greeted with approval by local newspaper, The Anglo Celt.1 Figure X.1: Population of County Cavan at each census from 1841 to 2011 300000 250000 200000 150000 Total population 100000 50000 0 1926 2011 1851 1861 1871 1881 1891 1901 1911 1936 1946 1951 1956 1961 1966 1971 1979 1981 1986 1991 1996 2002 2006 1841 1 Table X.1: Population of County Cavan at selected census years, 1841-1981 1841 243158 1851 174071 1861 153906 1871 140735 1881 129476 1891 111917 1901 97541 1911 91173 1926 82452 1936 76670 1946 70355 1951 66377 1961 56594 1971 52618 1981 53855 Just 12.7% of the population in 1981 was living in the urban areas of County Cavan.

Introduction Civil registration of births, marriages and deaths commenced in Ireland in 1864, though registration of marriages of non‐Roman Catholics was introduced earlier in 1845. The Births, marriages and deaths were registered by geographical areas known as Registration Districts (also known as Superintendent Registrar’s Districts). The boundaries of the registration districts followed the boundaries of the Poor Law Unions created earlier under the 1838 Poor Law Act for the administration of relief to the poor.
