  • Report of the Inter-Departmental Group on Mother and Baby Homes
    Report of the Inter-Departmental Group on Mother and Baby Homes Department of Children and Youth Affairs July 2014 I. Introduction The Inter Departmental Group was set up in response to revelations and public controversy regarding conditions in Mother and Baby Homes. This controversy originally centred on the high rate of deaths at the Bon Secours Mother and Baby Home in Tuam, Co. Galway. A local historian, Ms Catherine Corless, sourced details from public records of 796 child deaths, very many of them infants, in this home in the period from 1925 to 1961. There was also considerable anxiety and questions as to the burial arrangements for these infants. Notwithstanding that Tuam was the original focus of this controversy, related issues of death rates, burial arrangements and general conditions have also been raised with regard to Mother and Baby Homes in other locations. Shortly after the Inter-Departmental Group was established, Dáil Eireann passed a motion, following a Government sponsored amendment, on 11th June 2014 as follows: “That Dáil Éireann: acknowledges the need to establish the facts regarding the deaths of almost 800 children at the Bon Secours Sisters institution in Tuam, County Galway between 1925 and 1961, including arrangements for the burial of these children; acknowledges that there is also a need to examine other "mother and baby homes" operational in the State in that era; recognises the plight of the mothers and children who were in these homes as a consequence of the failure of religious institutions, the State,

  • “On the Other Hand the Accused Is a Woman...”: Women and the Death Penalty in Post-Independence Ireland
    “On the other hand the accused is a woman...”: Women and the Death Penalty in Post-Independence Ireland LYNSEY BLACK Hannah Flynn was sentenced to death on February 27, 1924. She had been convicted of the murder of Margaret O’Sullivan, her former employer. Hannah worked for Margaret and her husband Daniel as a domestic serv- ant, an arrangement that ended with bad feeling on both sides when Hannah was dismissed. On Easter Sunday, April 1, 1923, while Daniel was at church, Hannah returned to her former place of work, and killed 50-year-old Margaret with a hatchet. At her trial, the jury strongly recom- mended her to mercy, and sentence of death was subsequently commuted to penal servitude for life. Hannah spent almost two decades in Mountjoy Prison in Dublin, from where she was conditionally released on October 23, 1942 to the Good Shepherd Magdalen Laundry in Limerick. Although there is no precise date available for Hannah’s eventual release from there, it is known that “a considerable time later,” and at a very advanced age, she was released from the laundry to a hospital, where she died. The case of Hannah Flynn, and the use of the Good Shepherd Laundry, represents an explicitly gendered example of the death penalty regime in Ireland Lynsey Black is an Irish Research Council Government of Ireland Postdoctoral Fellow at the Sutherland School of Law, University College Dublin <lynsey. [email protected]>. She thanks Ivana Bacik, Donal Coffey, Ian O’Donnell, and Lizzie Seal for providing comment and feedback on earlier drafts of the article, as well as the anonymous reviewers for Law and History Review who gave gen- erous and invaluable guidance on how to improve the article.

  • A Study of the Infrastructure and Legislation for Adoption in Ireland C.1911-1971
    A study of the infrastructure and legislation for adoption in Ireland c.1911-1971 By Colleen Mary Stewart Thesis for the degree of PhD Department of History National University of Ireland Maynooth Head of Department: Professor Marian Lyons Supervisors of research Dr. Dympna McLoughlin Professor Jacqueline Hill October 2013 Abstract This thesis explores adoption in Ireland from 1911 through to 1971. Over this sixty year period a number of aspects to adoption in Ireland are examined. Before 1952 there was no formal legislation covering the practice of adoption in Ireland; adoptions were arranged on an informal or de facto basis. In this sense, adoption is charted throughout the thesis starting in 1911 and continuing through its legalisation in 1952 to 1971. The census of 1911 provides detailed information on the numbers of adopted children in Ireland. Up till 1922 adoption in Ireland is explored for the whole island. Before 1952 records and correspondence from organisations that arranged adoptions are used to create an understanding of informal adoption practices. The thesis also explores the demand for adoption legislation and examines in detail the activity of the groups and organisations involved, and their roles experienced in the introduction of an adoption law and their working relationships with the department of justice. The legislative position of adoption in Ireland compared to similar international legislative practice elsewhere is also addressed, as is relevant international legislation; Ireland introduced its first adoption law relatively late in comparison to other European countries. The thesis explores and compares Ireland‟s adoption legislation with international standards. After the introduction of the first adoption act there was government regulation of adoption practices.

  • Towards Equality for Unmarried Parents and Their Children
    Towards Equality for Unmarried Parents and Their Children A history of the first 40 years of Treoir The Federation of Services for Unmarried Parents and their Children 1976 – 2016 Margot Doherty, Margaret Dromey, Dr. Patricia Kennedy, Gemma Rowley, Eilis Walsh 1 1 A HISTORY OF THE FIRST 40 YEARS OF TREOIR TOWARDS EQUALITY FOR UNMARRIED PARENTS AND THEIR CHILDREN 2 A HISTORY OF THE FIRST 40 YEARS OF TREOIR TOWARDS EQUALITY FOR UNMARRIED PARENTS AND THEIR CHILDREN Foreword It is my honour and privilege to be the chair of TREOIR on the fortieth anniversary of its foundation. Over those forty years, TREOIR has consistently and expertly supported unmarried parents and their children and advocated on their behalf. As this excellent account of TREOIR’s growth and development makes clear, the organisation was formed at a time when our society attached great shame to having children outside of marriage and unmarried mothers and their children experienced a high level of discrimination. Unmarried girls who became pregnant had few choices if they could not support themselves. Their children were deemed to be ‘illegitimate’ and were legally described as ‘filius nul- lius’ – the child of no one. Giving their child up for adoption was the only option for most women in these circumstances. Moved by the difficulties faced by these young women, a group of compassion- ate and far sighted people came together in the early 1970s to provide support and assistance. A number of organisations were formed, including Treoir, then known as the Federation of Services for Unmarried Parents. From the begin- ning, the focus of TREOIR has been to provide information to unmarried par- ents and the professionals with whom they come in contact, the promotion of research and the adequacy of the law as it affects unmarried parents and their children.
