  • The Life and Times of Captain William Flack
    The Life and Times of Captain William Flack The story of a remarkable man who survived and prospered despite the momentous odds he and his wife Lucy faced in their lives. The Life and Times of William Flack (1810-1892) How can we begin to understand the lives of our ancestors without knowing something of the social and economic conditions in which they lived? In the following story (with family history records included), I hope to visit the life and times of my Great Great Grandfather, William Flack so as to gain some insight into his life in the context of the social conditions and historical events of his times. This essay tours the social and political environment in which he lived in the County Cavan community in the early 1800s and then describes the events that impacted on his 21 years in the British Army and his “retirement” years in Burnley, Lancashire. The sources are noted where appropriate and a Bibliography is included at the end. William Flack came from Bailieborough, County Cavan, Ulster William Flack was born on 1 April 1810 in or near the town of Bailieborough in Cavan, then a part of Ulster which had been under British rule since the 17th Century and governed through an Irish Parliament based in Dublin. In 1800, the Act of Union abolished the Irish Parliament and allowed for the election of 100 Irish members to the Westminster Parliament. Before the Plantation of Ulster, the area that became Bailieborough was known as Killechally, Killycolly and Killycollie (Irish: Coill an Chollaigh, meaning "forest of boar").

  • Recent Settlement Change in County Cavan, 1981-2011 RUTH MCMANUS
    Recent settlement change in County Cavan, 1981-2011 RUTH MCMANUS Introduction Cavan is considered by many to be part of Ireland’s rural heartland, a county of small towns and scenic countryside. This landlocked county of lakes and rolling hills has a timeless image, exploited in its tourism promotion as ‘the Lakeland county’ and a haven for fishing, boating and rural pursuits. However, the period from 1981 to 2011 has seen the emergence of a changed landscape, which challenges these assumptions. This chapter considers the changing nature of the Cavan landscape over the past thirty years, focusing on how this change reflects new patterns of housing, employment and population structure. Cavan before the economic boom At 53,855 in 1981, the population of County Cavan had increased slightly from the all-time low recorded a decade previously. However, the issue of depopulation was an ever-present one. The century had seen a consistent drop in population from a high of 91,173 in 1911. Indeed, Figure X.1 and Table X.1, which shows the population of the county from the first census in 1841, reveals a consistent fall in numbers over more than 130 years. Little wonder, then, that reports of population growth during the boom years were greeted with approval by local newspaper, The Anglo Celt.1 Figure X.1: Population of County Cavan at each census from 1841 to 2011 300000 250000 200000 150000 Total population 100000 50000 0 1926 2011 1851 1861 1871 1881 1891 1901 1911 1936 1946 1951 1956 1961 1966 1971 1979 1981 1986 1991 1996 2002 2006 1841 1 Table X.1: Population of County Cavan at selected census years, 1841-1981 1841 243158 1851 174071 1861 153906 1871 140735 1881 129476 1891 111917 1901 97541 1911 91173 1926 82452 1936 76670 1946 70355 1951 66377 1961 56594 1971 52618 1981 53855 Just 12.7% of the population in 1981 was living in the urban areas of County Cavan.
