Recollections of a Volunteer in Irish Republican Army 1916-1921 Chapter 1. 1916: This is a story of what happened in a period of my life. It is written about 30 years after the period 1916-1921, or in the year 1952 to be exact. I clearly recollect one Sunday morning in April, 1916, having walked a distance of three miles from my home to attend last Mass in the town of Newtownbutler, Co. Fermanagh, an announcement was read by the Parish Priest during Mass to the effect that an instrument of unconditional surrender had been signed on behalf of the Irish Volunteers by P. H. Pearse. This announcement stuck in my memory. It evidently had been prepared by the local Sergeant of the Royal Irish Constabulary on behalf of His Majesty's Government and handed for publication to the Catholic clergyman. While I've no doubt the majority of the congregation on that Sunday morning were aware a rebellion against British rule had the been in progress during previous week, few indeed knew who this man Pearse was or what he stood for. The older men shook their heads and expressed the opinion that the use of arms was a misguided action and doomed to failure from the start.

  • 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.

    Monaghan’s physical landscape: exploiting its natural resources SUSAN HEGARTY Introduction When the author of the Irish Times article in 1863 called Monaghan the ‘Cornwall of Erin’, he may have somewhat embellished reality.1 Indeed, this idea of an industrialised Monaghan may have been merely aspirational, as the landowners of Monaghan began to engage in exploitation of their mineral resources in the nineteenth century. However, it is true to say that the physical landscape of any area is the foundation for any future development – cultural and social. The raw materials of an area shape the historical experience of its economy and society. Therefore, in this chapter we will examine the evolution of the physical landscape of Monaghan, its endowment of raw materials, and how these have been exploited over the years. Even a cursory glance at the basic physical geography of Monaghan (fig. 1) will suffice to note that the county can be broken up into four areas. The northwestern corner of the county contains its highest point, around the Slieve Beagh uplands. To the east and south of this, is located a lowland area composed of limestone, with average heights of 70 metres above sea level. In the centre of the county, south of Monaghan town, the land rises to an average of 160 metres above sea level. Then further south around Carrickmacross, the land falls again, averaging 60 metres above sea level. All of these changes in landscape and elevation are due to the underlying rock types (fig. 2). Glaciation has also had a significant impact on the landscape of Monaghan, with drumlins being one of its most characteristic features.

In total, over 1,350 structures were recorded. The Inventory should not be regarded as exhaustive and, over time, other buildings and structures of merit may come to light. The purpose of this introduction is to explore the social and historical context of the buildings and structures and to facilitate a greater appreciation of the architectural heritage of County Monaghan.

This process deposited mounds of boulder clay, and dense poorly draining soil in a great tract between Donegal Bay and Strangford Lough. This concentration of small hills, frequently interspersed with lakes, gives a pleasing and ever changing character to the local topography.
