Systematic visual inspection of the sub-tidal seabed and intertidal/ foreshore areas surrounding the proposed impacts did not reveal any material or features of archaeological significance.

    William, James, Hanora, Michael, John, Daniel

    The Kellys The Kellys he Kelly family has Irish roots. An examination of Irish records shows that as recently as 1900, TKelly was the second most common name in Ireland (Murphy was fi rst) and there were Kellys located in many areas of Ireland. According to the “Irish Family Names Directory,” Kelly was predominantly found in the counties of Derry, Galway, Leix and Meath, with Galway being the largest concentration. Signifi cant numbers can also be identifi ed with Counties Donegal and Roscommon. These are all areas that are in the midlands to northern regions of the country towards the West. There are also some Kellys who hailed from West Cork where the famous IRA revolutionary Michael Collins called “home.” All of these areas were Gaelic-speaking well into the 1800s. Prior research about the Kellys was unclear about the exact location of their home in Ireland. It remains unspecifi ed but we have made progress (see below). Various individual recollections formed most of the evidence, including my aunt & cousin Bessie Kelly Beirne (1893-1986). Some of these indicate that our Kelly ancestors declared that they were from Clonakilty, County Cork, Ireland. The Immigration and Naturalization Service and several census year records indicate the year of immigration but not the specifi c birthplace. Some local cemeteries and headstones as well as some newspapers record the Kelly origins as Ireland, County Cork and/or Ballymacarder (sic). It should be noted that none of our immigrant ancestors could read or write and may have responded to census and INS questions with the last location that they recall in Ireland.
  • The Cork to Passage Railway

    The Cork to Passage Railway

    THE PROPOSED CORK TO PASSAGE RAILWAY 1837 Brendan Hall The Parliamentary Committee to consider the Bill for the construction of a railway between Cork and Passage West met over three days in April 1837. The members of the Committee were Mr. O'Connell, Mr. D. Callaghan1, Mr. Jephson, Mr. Serjeant Jackson, Mr. Longfield2, Mr. Roche3, Mr. Vesey, Sir Andrew Agnew, Sir R. Bateson, Mr. Barry4, Mr. Cole, Colonel Thomas, Mr. E. Buller and Sir Richard Musgrave. There were several petitions against the Bill. One was from a group of Cork (city and county) inhabitants, alleging that the proposed railway would be harmful to the navigation of the river Lee and to trade in Cork city. No evidence was put forward to support these allegations and the claim was rejected. A petition forwarded by a consortium interested in constructing a competing railway service between Cork and Cove was also rejected. The Committee looked sympathetically on a protest by William Wise, on whose land it was proposed to build a railway terminus on the side of the river Lee. Traffic from Cork to Passage (1837) Statement showing the present annual amount of traffic, and the expected annual traffic by the Cork and Passage Railway, in Passengers and Goods - Present avg.
