  • Ennis Cathedral
    Ennis Cathedral: The Building & Its People. Saturday 29th. August 2009 Presented by the Clare Roots Society Clare Roots Society The Clare Roots Society, brainchild of Ennisman Larry Brennan, was formed in April 2006 as an amateur family history group. The Society meets once a month in Ennis, and has approx. 50 members. Anyone with an interest in tracing their family tree is welcome to join. Some members are experienced genealogists while others are novices in the field. In addition to local members, we have some 'virtual' members who live overseas, but who follow our activities via email, and dream that they are in Clare. Activities are advertised in local press and in the Ennis Cathedral church bulletin. Under the Chairmanship of Declan Barron and his committee of Fiona de Buitleir, Eric Shaw, Larry Brennan & Paddy Waldron, guest speakers were arranged at past meetings including Paul O’Donnell of the South Galway genealogy group, Peter Beirne of 'The Manse' Local Studies library in Ennis, Jim Herlihy on the RIC, Liam Curran on Irish Soldiers in the British Army, Jonny Dillon of the Folklore Dept., UCD, and Dr. Pat Nugent of the University of Liverpool amongst others. From our own members, speakers have included Dr. Paddy Waldron, Gerry Kennedy, Ger Madden, Declan Barron, Eric Shaw, Robert Cullen, and Larry Brennan. In addition, we have run a number of hands-on computer workshops on genealogical research and the recording of data. The society works in partnership with Clare County Library in order to add to the wonderful fund of genealogy information already available on their website www.clarelibrary.ie Our biggest project to date, completed in 2008 with the assistance of a grant from the Heritage Council of Ireland, involved transcription of the gravestones in the old Drumcliffe Cemetery.

  • Ireland with the Family 7 Days
    Ireland with the Family 7 days Tour Description We understand that your travel needs can be different when traveling with Grandma, Grandpa, Mom, Dad, cousins and/or young children. It requires a significant amount of effort and coordination to travel internationally with a group of family members. Therefore, the activities, accommodations, and pace should reflect that. This 7-day, 6-night itinerary, taking you to many of Ireland’s dreamiest spots, was designed specifically with families in mind. Ireland’s lack of language barrier, friendly locals, and exceptional countryside make it an ideal family-friendly destination. With that being said, keep in mind that the itinerary below is just a sample and can be tailored to meet your family’s needs and interests. If you’re not traveling with very young children, many additional activities – such as visiting a whiskey distillery, attending a literary pub crawl, or playing a round of golf – could be substituted or added. If you like the look of this itinerary but would like to stay longer in Ireland, we recommend adding either a stay in Dublin or Cork. Highlights Attend a medieval banquet in 15th-century Bunratty Castle See Ireland’s picture-perfect Cliffs of Moher! Visit a traditional Irish pet farm Take a carriage tour of Killarney National Park Explore the Ring of Kerry Spend a day on the breathtaking Dingle Peninsula Sample Tour Itinerary Bunratty – 2 nights Day 1: Arrival to Shannon Airport – Bunratty, County Clare Upon arrival to Shannon Airport, a driver-guide will accompany your family to the lovely village of Bunratty, your base for the next two nights.
