Old IRA / Military Pension Records
Phase 1 of the long awaited Old IRA/Military Pension record set is now available for free online searching at MilitaryArchives.ie (Jan 16th 2014). Phase 1 includes details of 3,200 individual pension applicants, including 2,400 recipients of pensions in respect of the 1916 Easter Rising.
We have found three files of local interest: One Rathcoole man involved in the Mutiny of India 1920, and two men who were sent to the Millstreet 4th Batallion and were active in Rathcoole / Drishane / Clonbanin ambushes. These are outlined below.
It is disappointing that so few local records were released, so if you were looking for a relatives application (like me) you’ll have to wait a little longer. The rest of the collection, which, in total, holds some 300,000 files relating to 60,000 pension applicants, will be released in ‘regular phases’ leading up to 2016.

Michael Murphy, Rathcoole, Banteer, Co.Cork
File Reference: Con.Ran.34
Date of Birth: 1889
The file relates to the claim of Michael Murphy, ex-Connaught Ranger, who participated in the Mutiny in India in 1920 in which applicant is to [read more …] “Old IRA / Military Pension Records”

Regional Report 1201 – 14th January 2014
by
Eily Buckley
Dia is Mhuire diobh go leir a Cairde and welcome to News Report 1201 from Millstreet. Fondest greetings dear listeners and I wish you all the very best on this cold, wet, and calm Tuesday morning.
Everything is fast returning to normal following the Christmas break. The annual New Year Day dip in the Blackwater is still on hold due to weather conditions, but other than that all voluntary bodies are getting ready to swing back into action and do their best for our community in the year ahead.
Fr Tom O’Flynn CM (1915-1984)
Even as I write, more than six months after his unexpected taking from among us, it is difficult to think of Fr Tom O’Flynn as of someone who is dead. Though his appointments during the latter half of his priestly life required him to live outside the community, he was always punctilious about keeping in touch, regularly visiting the house to which he was formally attached whether it was the old St Joseph’s on Temple Road, Blackrock or the new one at Stillorgan Park. Then, of course, he “breezed in” to the other houses making some provocative statement and galvanising a sometimes jaded community into life. Perhaps this is the same as saying that he was life-enhancing.
Tom O, as he was affectionately known among his confrères, was born in Millstreet, Co. Cork and, though he spent most of his life in the Dublin area, there was a sense in which he never left it. This was largely due to his devotion to his family. But those of us who lived close to him in his earlier years heard a good deal about the Presentation Convent in Millstreet and the nuns in Drishane, and also about the local citizenry. And there was the famous occasion — I think it was at the end of the war — when Tom O, bewailing the rise in [read more …] “Fr Tom O’Flynn CM (1915-1984)”
