Regrets were expressed at the death since the last General Meeting of two of the original members of the Society, Miss Martha Lough nnd The Right Hon. Thomas Lough, P.C., H.M.L., the former of whom passed away at Dronl Mullac, Killeshandra, towards the end of 1921, and the latter in London, on 11th Jan- uary, 192.2. On the motion of Mr. P. J. Brady, C.E., seconded by Nr. Walker, B.A., a resoltltion was passed expressing regret and tendering sympathy with the relatives of the deceased. A brief obituary notice of Miss i\4. Lough appeared in the 1921 Journal, and one of her brother, The Rt. Hon. Thornas Lough, is given in this. The business of the Annual Meeting, as laid down in the Rules, was gone through. The Chairman read the Committee's Report on the work dur- ing the twelve months just passed. It showed satisfactory progress, and in it tribute was paid to the untiring labour of the Hon. Secretary, Mr. T. A. Cole. M.A.. National School Insnectnr A communication from Mr. Cole was read resigning the secretary- ship, owing to transference to the Belfast district. The resignation was regretfully accepted, and the following resolution, proposed by Rev. J. B. Meehan, and seconded by Lieut.-Col. Story, was unanimously adopted :- "The Breifny Antiquarian Society desires to express its recognition of the great loss it sustains in the unavoidable retirement of the Hon. Secretary, Mr. J. A. Cole, M.A. " The Members also wish to put on record their gratefulness for all he has done for the Society from the very beginning. He it was that took up energetically a suggestion that had been several times mooted before, and urged the formation of such a local Society for Kilmore. He bestowed immense trouble in bringing it into being and giving it a fair start. " Since its establishment, two years ago, he has laboured earnestly and most efficiently for its progress. Any future measure of success to which it may happen to attain will be largely due to his thoughtful and unobtrusive guidance both in laying down its course, and in conducting it through the first and, we believe, the most difficult years of its work. " Personally he was highly esteemed by every individual Member. We are extremely sorry for his departure from amongst us, and we wish him every blessing in his new sphere of duties." The accounts of the Society were laid before the Meeting. As audited they will be found at page 229 of the Journal. Mr. J. P. Gannon was unanimously renamed auditor for 1922. The presiding Chairman retired in accordance with Rule 15c. Rev. E. D. Crowe, &LA.,was, by an unanimous vote, appointed . to the office. Rev. Dr. Comey was elected Vice-chairman, Mr. W. Reid, Secretary, and on the motion of Mr. Halpin, seconded by Mr. McCabe, the old Committee were re-elected with the addition of Dr. Smith and Mr. Walker to fill vacancies. The resulting list of the officers for 1922 is given on page 233. There was a discussion on the advisability of printing a larger number of Journals and reducing the price, the price at present being about exactly what it costs the Society. Some suggestions were also made as to the Annual Excursion. The following new Members were elected :- LIFE MEMBERS: Right Rev. Monsignor Richard Brady, Loretto Heights Academy, Colorado ; Rev.

[Read 9th March, 1922.1 KILLYKEENis within half-a-dozen miles of the town of Cavan. Not many places in the county can vie with it either in scenic beauty or in richness of historic associations. Killykeen--Coil1 chaoin, the " Beautiful Wood "--lies in the valley of the River Erne, and forms portion of the second of the four steps the river takes in its descent to the sea. After flowing into Lough Oughter (the upper lake), above Trinity Island, the river forms a series of expansions before again contracting, on the north side of Innishmore Island, into a river in the true sense. This wonderful labyrinth of winding lakes, separated by mounds and banks of clay, is probably due to the irregular distribution of boulder clay and gravel accumulated by the great ice stream which moved northwards along the valley of the Erne from the central snowfield. Another theory is that the lakes are mainly due to the solubility of limestone in presence of water containing carbonic acid gas.

Site selection was carried out using the Forest Inventory Planning System 1998 (FIPS) and local knowledge. Surveys comprised the recording of site species lists and information at the site level on topography, management, grazing, natural regeneration, geographical situation, adjacent habitat types, invasive species, dead wood and boundaries. Relevés were recorded in each of the main stand types identified at each site. For each relevé, data were recorded on vascular plant and bryophyte cover abundance, soil type and soil chemistry, notable lichens, stand structure, and natural regeneration. Data were also incorporated from a number of external sources. This resulted in a database with data from 1,320 sites and 1,667 relevés. The relevé dataset was analysed using hierarchical clustering and indicator species analysis. Four major woodland groups were defined: Quercus petraea – Luzula sylvatica (260 relevés), Fraxinus excelsior – Hedera helix (740 relevés), Alnus glutinosa – Filipendula ulmaria (296 relevés) and Betula pubescens – Molinia caerulea (371 relevés). Further analysis of the dataset divided these four groups into twenty-two vegetation types. For each vegetation type a synoptic table of the floristic data was produced, together with a list of key indicator species, a list of example sites, summary environmental and stand structure data and a distribution map.

  • Co. Londonderry – Historical Background Paper the Plantation
    Co. Londonderry – Historical Background Paper The Plantation of Ulster and the creation of the county of Londonderry On the 28th January 1610 articles of agreement were signed between the City of London and James I, king of England and Scotland, for the colonisation of an area in the province of Ulster which was to become the county of Londonderry. This agreement modified the original plan for the Plantation of Ulster which had been drawn up in 1609. The area now to be allocated to the City of London included the then county of Coleraine,1 the barony of Loughinsholin in the then county of Tyrone, the existing town at Derry2 with adjacent land in county Donegal, and a portion of land on the county Antrim side of the Bann surrounding the existing town at Coleraine. The Londoners did not receive their formal grant from the Crown until 1613 when the new county was given the name Londonderry and the historic site at Derry was also renamed Londonderry – a name that is still causing controversy today.3 The baronies within the new county were: 1. Tirkeeran, an area to the east of the Foyle river which included the Faughan valley. 2. Keenaght, an area which included the valley of the river Roe and the lowlands at its mouth along Lough Foyle, including Magilligan. 3. Coleraine, an area which included the western side of the lower Bann valley as far west as Dunboe and Ringsend and stretching southwards from the north coast through Macosquin, Aghadowey, and Garvagh to near Kilrea. 4. Loughinsholin, formerly an area in county Tyrone, situated between the Sperrin mountains in the west and the river Bann and Lough Neagh on the east, and stretching southwards from around Kilrea through Maghera, Magherafelt and Moneymore to the river Ballinderry.

In writing this thesis, I hope that I have, in some way, managed to explain the reasons for this cultural diversity. This thesis would not have been written without the assistance of my two supervisors, Professor Mike Cronin and Professor Matthew Taylor. Professor Cronin’s assistance and knowledge has transformed the way I think about history, society and sport while Professor Taylor’s expertise has also made me look at the writing of sports history and the development of society in a different way.

  • The Irish Revenue Police,1832-1857 by Jim Herlihy
    Irish Roots 2018 Issue 2 The Irish Revenue Police,1832-1857 by Jim Herlihy The idea of compiling a genealogical guide to the Irish Revenue Police developed from a variety of experiences. In compiling my three books on the Royal Irish Constabulary 1816-1922 (85,028 members) and two books on the Dublin Metropolitan Police 1836-1925 (12,566 members), I encountered the names of additional policemen who served between the 1830s and the 1850s, in the Chief Secretary’s Office Registered Papers (CSORP), National Archives. Their names could not be matched with RIC registered numbers of service or with DMP warrant numbers. Also, when looking at death certificates of Irish policemen between 1864 and 1900 in the General Registrar’s Office, I noticed that the occupation listed on some of the death certificates was ‘revenue policeman’, and in the RIC registers of service in particular I found that several Irish Constabulary members who joined on and after 1 October 1857 had an additional date of enlistment prior to that date. had transferred to the Irish Constabulary individual IRP men resided in 1857, This was in fact the date of or to the Dublin Metropolitan Police.
