Download or read book All Saints Cootehill 1819 2019 A history of the church the parish and its people written by Jonathan A. Smyth and published by Cumann Seanchais Bhreifne . This book was released on 2019-11-01 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story begins in the mists of the seventeenth century with the establishment of a pre-reformation church on Drumgoon Hill, followed by the building of St. James, the first Church of Ireland place of worship in Cootehill, and later, its replacement by the present-day All Saints’ Church, on Market Street in 1819. The book helps to shine a light on cross-community relations during the nineteenth century, recalling the forgotten friendship of the Rev. Archibald Douglas and James Browne, the Roman Catholic Bishop of Kilmore, both of whom co-operated on important projects for the betterment of life for the locals. All Saints’ reveals more to the reader, about the life and labours of Bishop John Richard Darley, who established the Darley School, a man of charity who gave to all, regardless of creed. There are also many interesting tales, such as the draining of the lake at Killyrue, the rent reductions provided during An Gorta Mór, to Lady Wyndham’s humorous encounter with a donkey, and a rector’s bout as the chairman of Cootehill boxing club. This book will be a must for anyone with an interest in Ireland’s local, social and cross-community history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The famous Irish mathematician Sir William Rowan Hamilton (1805-1865) is generally regarded as having been an unhappily married alcoholic. The aim of this essay is to show that, contrary to this widespread belief, Hamilton had a good marriage, that in fact large parts of his marriage were fairly happy. It is discussed where the idea of his marriage as having been an unhappy one came from, and it is shown that according to current standards he was by no means an alcoholic.

Download or read book Indexes to Irish Wills written by William Phillimore Watts Phillimore and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 880 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an alphabetical index of over 30,000 Diocesan wills proved in the Consistorial Courts of Ireland between 1536 and 1857. Arranged by Dioceses, and preceded by maps showing in which Dioceses the various Irish counties are situated, the Indexes provide the name of the testator, his parish, county, and the date of probate and are, in short, complete lists of Diocesan wills proved up until 1857, when the various ecclesiastical courts were abolished by Act of Parliament and superseded by the Probate Court. Since the Public Record Office in Dublin was destroyed by fire in 1922, information furnished by this work is very often the only source for determining the social and financial status of an ancestor. These indexes also provide clues for checking land records for an estate partition and transfers of lease from testator to heir. This volume is a perfect companion to Sir Arthur Vicars' "Index to the Prerogative Wills of Ireland, 1536-1810."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been a tremendous resurgence of interest in pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela. In this book the author reveals a story of a much longer connection between Ireland and the pilgrimage than previously thought. Stories of men and women who went from Ireland to Santiago de Compostela in the Middle Ages tell of Irish involvement in one of the major pilgrimages of the medieval Christian world. The long and hazardous journey by land and sea to the shrine of St James in Galicia was not undertaken lightly. This innovative book explores the varied influences on and motivations of the pilgrims, as well as the nature of medieval travel, in order to understand when, why and how pilgrims from Ireland went toSantiago in the heyday of the pilgrimage, between the twelfth and fifteenth centuries. It draws on official documents, historical chronicles, literary texts, saints¿ Lives and archaeological finds to uncover stories of those Anglo-Norman and Gaelic pilgrims who ventured beyond the confines of their local communities in search of salvation and perhaps a little adventure.
