Download or read book Overlooking the River Mourne written by Michael Cox and published by Ulster Historical Foundation. This book was released on 2006 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The close ties between the people and the land in Ulster has only, within the last two generations, been replaced by a more urban 'modern'lifestyle. This study of the farms and farming families,on two thousand acres of hilly terrain in two adjacent townlands, Edymore and Cavanlee, south-east of Strabane overlooking the river Mourne, is a model in local studies. The story is based on research in one of the greatest collections of estate records in Britain or Ireland, the Abercorn Papers in the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland. Before 1600 the land belonged to the great O'Neill clan. After the Plantation, it was granted to the Abercorn family and the land devided into small farms, and over the ensueing centuries the farmers created well-run and profitable mixed farms.At the beginning of the twentieth century families at last had the chance to own the land their forebears had, as tenants,tilled for generations.Some farms expanded,some stayed the same size: what links them all is that the family unit remained as the cement that held them together and bound them to the land. The development of the farms and the lives of four of the longest-surviving families are retraced in absorbing detail, so to is the social fabric which linked town and country. Strabane, less than an hour's walk away, was a focal point for markets, education and social activities. The writer's own family connections with the townlands over the last fifty years provide the homely touch that gives this book such a distinctive charm.

Download or read book Ulster s Lost Counties written by Edward Burke and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2024-04-25 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1920, the three Ulster counties of Cavan, Donegal and Monaghan were excluded from Northern Ireland. What happens to an abandoned people? And what is the impact on subsequent generations? At a time of uncertainty over the future of Northern Ireland, the history of Ulster loyalists who found themselves on the 'wrong side' of the Irish border is especially relevant. Memories of the violence and betrayal experienced by one generation of protestants in the three counties entrenched an intergenerational Ulster loyalist identity. Subsequently, three-county loyalists who moved across the border played an important role in militant politics. Examining armed resistance in these counties and the radicals who came from them, Edward Burke argues that violence or terrorism perpetrated by 'lost Ulster' loyalists enjoyed considerable success. Spanning the Anglo-Irish War to the Troubles and beyond, Ulster's Lost Counties demonstrates the grip of identity and betrayal since the partition of Ireland.

Download or read book From Ulster to America written by Michael Montgomery and published by Ulster Historical Foundation. This book was released on 2006 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Ulster to America documents nearly four hundred terms and meanings-- each with quotations from both sides of the Atlantic--contributed to American English by these eighteenth-century settlers from Ulster. Drawing on letters they sent back to their homeland and on other archival documents associated with their settlement, it shows that Ulster emigrants and their children contributed as much to regional American English as any other group. The numerous quotations bring alive the speech of earlier days on both sides of the Atlantic, and extend understanding of the culture, mannerisms, and life of those pioneering times.
