Teevnish Papers

Courtesy of the National Library of IrelandMS 40,890/2(17)
With only one day to spend in the Library of Ireland, I decided to collect whatever I could on the townlands of Teevnish.  It was a fascinating journey.

I worked my way through a variety of records some dating as early as 1612. The earliest were carefully protected in mylar, but I was allowed to read them, and photograph them.  There were books and maps from the eighteenth and ninteenth centuries, and I got to touch them!
So...

Teevnish (there are many spellings but this is the most prevalent) was conveyed by Davy Reah McPhilbin of Bownrawer to Sir Theobald Bourke on 3 Nov 1612 (MS 40,890/2(17) ).  Since our known ancestor from Teevnish is Julia Bourke (Burke) this was an interesting fact.  I don't see any family connection from Theobald, but then I don't know the history of Julia's family.  Most likely her ancestors were part of the clan that gathered around these more important Bourkes.  At this point it is just a fun connection.


By the 1800s the land was part of the holdings of the Marquis of Sligo.  At the time of the great famine, George John Browne, the 3rd Marquis was in power.  His Wikipedia page states that ...

"Browne prided himself on being an enlightened landlord. In the second year of the Great Irish Famine, Browne's tenants gathered at Westport House, the ancestral residence of the Marquesses of Sligo. Browne assured his tenants of his support for them, and proceeded to hand them guns (without regard for his own safety), enabling them to hunt for game. He also went into considerable debt in order to acquire cornmeal from the Americas, and converted most of Westport House into a soup kitchen for the starving peasants." 

The website "County Mayo Beginnings", however paints a very different picture. Using J F Quinn's "History of Mayo" written in 1931 as a major source, a picture emerges of over 1700 tenents evicted from their homes, packed into workhouses and onto immigrant ships.  And that corn...well it turns out he had to open the cornstores at the Quay to house the overflow from the workhouse due to his ejectments. The bulk of those he evicted were from the parishes of Aughagower and Louisburg. 

The 1840-1844 rent ledger for the Altamont estates contains a note for tenants dated Oct 1844 stating......

The Tenants on the Estates of the Marquess of Sligo are requested to take Notice: 1. A New Tenant will not be allowed to come upon the Estate, either to hold land himself or to reside upon the holding of another. 2. In every townland, not under lease, the holdings are to be made separate and distinct from each other, as far as possible, and each tenant or tenants to live on his or their own stripe [...] 5. Alienation, Sub-division or sub-letting will not be permitted, either to strangers or members of a family, but each holding is to be held entire by some one individual member of it, except in cases where the successor to it may wish to set apart a small portion of it for the support of his parents and for such object only, in which case such portion is at their death to revert to him, and complete the original holding...'.

This volume and other individual year collection volumes list the tenants of East Teevnish, including Henry Bourke, however, the tenants of West Teevinish in all found volumes are listed jointly as "villagers" with no breakdown of individuals.  The annual rent from the 1830s through the mid 1840s was £50, but in 1847 it increased to £100.

On 19 Oct 1857 the Marquis of Sligo and assorted other landowners filed suit against the tenants of Theevinish West, claiming they were resident on the land illegally.  One would guess they had ignored the edict of 1844.  Among the named defendants were  Michael Burke, James Bourke, Thomas Bourke, Patrick Giblin, Thomas McGuire, Bridget (widow of Austin) Giblin, Peter McLoughlin, James Scott, Patrick Duffy, James Moran, James Burke, Aply(?) Burke, Mary Burke, Bridget Burke, Austin Kerigan, James Kerigan, John Kerigan, Anthony Faden, and Judith Burke. This is the most complete listing of the tenants of the village of Teevish West found anywhere to date.  It is more inclusive than Griffith's Valuations, the only other record found that listed individual householders up to that time.

Among the notes in the lawsuit file,  is one stating that the summons to Judith Burke were delivered into the hands of her sister Mary.  As the case wore on a number of McGings, residents of neighboring Tonlagee were summoned to give evidence.

MS Map 310 (j) L. OS Sheet 98 
Judy Bourke of Teevnish married John Walsh of Derrycoosh in 1865.  Records have suggested her parents are Patrick and Mary Burke.  Patrick is listed in Griffith's Valuations in Teevnish in 1850.  He is not on the list in 1857, however, Mary is.  The records I went through still give no definative answer to the parents of Bridget but they do support the suggestion of Pat and Mary.   The hunt is still on.  DNA has linked our ancestors to McGings, a link through the Burke family seems likely.

The Cancelled Valuation Books for Teevnish begin in 1858 and list the same main defendants as the 1857 ejectments, the books continue to 1869 when all tenants were finally evicted and the townland in it's entirety was either leased to John Egan or held by the Marquis.  

There are more records for the area.  In 1874 there was a complaint against John McGing for building an illegal wall in Teevnish West.  There are also proceedings against John Egan for non-payment of rent and there are entries in a Journal of costs for the farm at Teevnish. Unfortunately there was nothing more on the Burke families of the townland in the records I had time to go through.

Picture Milwaukee

Located in southeastern Wisconsin on the shores of Lake Michigan, the city of Milwaukee is the county seat of Milwaukee County.

LOC collections Milwaukee 1879
http://hdl.loc.gov/loc.gmd/g4124m.pm010460
By 1880 it was the 17th largest city in the United States with 115,587 people.  Average life expectancy was 18 years, the result of unwashed inhabitants, unsanitary streets, unsafe foods, and often unchecked spread of disease.

The city was in debt, by 1857 they had lost 1.6 million investing in Rail Roads.  Although they built a reputation for solid conservative banking and fiscal policies in 1880 the debt amounted to $18.69 per individual, a total of $2.2 million for the entire city.

Milwaukee had 231.83 miles of streets.  150 miles were gravel and 25 miles of wood.  Asphalt which was introduced after 1871 still melted in hot weather.  Sidewalks were constructed of plank, flagstone and cement.  Street cleaning was  a problem.  Urine and manure covered the streets.  Cleaning cost the city about $53,000 a year and that did not include snow removal.  Volunteer crews shoveled to create fire lanes.

Dead animal removal cost the city about $850 a year.  The carcasses were taken by private contractors to glue factories.

In 1878 the city began regular collection of garbage and ashes at the cost of $10,000 to the city.  Collections were daily from April 20 - Oct 20 and twice a week the rest of the year. The collections wee taken to dumping grounds beyond city limits.

Liquid household wastes gathered in cesspools, privy vaults, gutters and sewers, causing danger to shallow wells. Licensed scavengers with air-tight carts cleaned out the privies between 11pm and 4 am.  Liquid waste often found its way into lakes and streams.

LOC Collections - Milwaukee  - Beck & Pauli.1882

The sewers, a systemic plan created by ES Chesbrough, consisted of vitrified earthen ware and cement pipes with manhole covers.  With a capacity for 280,000 people they ran to the Menomonee River and into Lake Michigan.  The reality is the waste backed up into the river rather than spreading through the lake.

Industrial waste and smoke were rampant, but, they were considered signs of progress and not a danger to ones health.

Before 1876 Milwaukee had a monopoly on gas lights.  Customers were charged $2.25 a month and outages and flickering were common.  Commercial enterprises were favored over individual customers.  Downtown, gas-lighters ran from pole to pole to light the street lights. When Edison perfected electric lighting Milwaukee was a quick adopter.

In 1870 the city had 42 police officers, one for every 1700 citizens, causing the mayor to claim that the city was more secure than in any other city on the continent of equal or greater size.  By 1880 the number of officers had increased to 69.  They made $800 a year and had to buy their own uniforms at a cost of about $60.  The chief made $3000 per year.  In 1880 there were 2564 arrests, 3445 lodgers in jail and the entire budget was $76000 for the year.  These were high wages, other cities in Wisconsin paid about $1 a day, but the city need to control their tough waterfront dives!

This was the city where Peter Somers (nephew of Margaret Somers Delmore) became mayor in 1890 and where Johannes Baier(l) settled with his daughter after his son John moved to Minnesota.

An Gallán Thoir

Courtesy of Logainm.ie
Gullane East

Gullane is prominent in the early Down’s Survey map of County Kerry, situated right in the Middle of Kil(l)conley Parish.  The earliest references I've found to East, West and Middle Gullane seem to appear to be in the Boundary Surveyor notes circa 1830, leaving the question of when they in fact were considered three separate townlands. 

Logainm.ie offers two notes on the name besides the dated references.  The first says Cárta – An Gallán 9.10.00 DED and the second An Seabhac: Gallán = cloch mhór ina seasamh An Chloch Lia sa chuid thiar – Cnoc beag which translates to The Hawk: Pillar large upright stone; the Stone ? in the western part - a small hill.

Sorting Walshes in Derrycoosh

There were ten Walsh households in Derrycoosh in 1855.  Trying to sort them has become a bit of an obsession.  Some of the available tools are the petty court records which are available on FindMyPast and the parish registers, which are found on the Library of Ireland website.  Here is my take to date.....

Taobh Aonghais Thiar - Taobh Aonghais Thoir

Julia Burke was a resident of Teevinish when she married John Walsh.  The record does not indicate whether it was Teevisih West or Teevinish East, but then it wasn't until the early 1800s that we find any reference to it being split.  Julia's baptism has not been found and her father was deceased when she married so to date I am unsure of the family, although I can make an educated guess.  We find references to Teevinish as early as 1592 when Thomas McGibon was listed as being from there. With the number of rent rolls available it might be possible to find further information.

Taohb translates to hillside  and O'Donovan gives the meaning as Side of the New Milk.
