I am beginning to feel that, having lived on three continents and seen much, I have seen a lot. Many of you in the Diocese have known me longer than I have known myself! But even those of you who are around longer haven’t seen it all, it would seem. When have we ever seen it all? Never. But we do learn lessons from the past in order to live now. We are truly living in strange and bewildering times. When I say that people have lived through such times before, in our communities locally, nationally, and worldwide, that is not in any way to diminish our own sense of anxiety and vulnerability at this time. Almost certainly by the time this issue of the Diocesan Magazine gets to you (however it does) things will have changed again; they are changing by the hour, yet alone the day.

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.

    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.

    Reverend Richard Townsend [612] Killenemer 1799 - 1801 Lackeen 1801 - 1806 Magourney 1801 - 1806 Ballyvourney 1799 - 1801 Cloyne St Cohnan’s, Cloyne Extract from Brady’s Clerical and Parochial Records of Cork, Cloyne and Ross Volume II 1863 Extracts from Samuel Lewis’ Topographical Dictionary 1837 BALLYVOURNEY, a parish, in the barony of WEST MUSKERRY, county of CORK, and province of MUNSTER, 8 miles (W. by N.) from Macroom; containing 3681 inhabitants. 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.
