Bibliography 76 2 Acknowledgements Having under taken to study initially for a Diploma and now towards a Masters Degree in Local History at Maynooth College, it was necessary to undertake a project, but what project? What topic? In several conversations over the years with friends of my father I was always struck by their reactions when the ‘Clongorey Evictions’ of the 1880s were spoken of. The pain of the memory passed down was reminiscent to that described during commemoration of the one hundred and fifty, anniversary of the famine. Exploring other projects, the ‘Clongorey Evictions’ kept drawing me back. Setting out on this journey I did not know what to expect. Not being a native of Clongorey how would I be treated digging around in their history, and could I do justice to the peoples memory? What I was not prepared for was the extent to which the events in Clongorey mirrored events nationally while still remaining in many ways unique.

  • The List of Church of Ireland Parish Registers
    THE LIST of CHURCH OF IRELAND PARISH REGISTERS A Colour-coded Resource Accounting For What Survives; Where It Is; & With Additional Information of Copies, Transcripts and Online Indexes SEPTEMBER 2021 The List of Parish Registers The List of Church of Ireland Parish Registers was originally compiled in-house for the Public Record Office of Ireland (PROI), now the National Archives of Ireland (NAI), by Miss Margaret Griffith (1911-2001) Deputy Keeper of the PROI during the 1950s. Griffith’s original list (which was titled the Table of Parochial Records and Copies) was based on inventories returned by the parochial officers about the year 1875/6, and thereafter corrected in the light of subsequent events - most particularly the tragic destruction of the PROI in 1922 when over 500 collections were destroyed. A table showing the position before 1922 had been published in July 1891 as an appendix to the 23rd Report of the Deputy Keeper of the Public Records Office of Ireland. In the light of the 1922 fire, the list changed dramatically – the large numbers of collections underlined indicated that they had been destroyed by fire in 1922. The List has been updated regularly since 1984, when PROI agreed that the RCB Library should be the place of deposit for Church of Ireland registers. Under the tenure of Dr Raymond Refaussé, the Church’s first professional archivist, the work of gathering in registers and other local records from local custody was carried out in earnest and today the RCB Library’s parish collections number 1,114. The Library is also responsible for the care of registers that remain in local custody, although until they are transferred it is difficult to ascertain exactly what dates are covered.
