Anyhow, back to the Papal "new dates" calendar. For example, the new Papal date for Easter was 10 days ahead of the date according to the old calendar. Some Harringtons in the Beara peninsula followed the old calendar. But other Harringtons there adopted the Papal calendar giving the new date for Easter. The Gaelic for Easter is CASC (pronounced CAWSK). These Harringtons were thereafter known as Harrington CASCA (in other words the Harringtons of the new Easter)), now known as Harrington CASKEY/CAUSKEY (pronounced CAWSKEY), and were often put into the old Baptismal records as such. Then there are other Harrington branch-names:- GREASAI (pronounced like greysee) is the Gaelic for a shoemaker; MERIGEACH is freckled; DUVE is dark-haired; GOW is a smith; TROKIRRE means merciful; STACK comes from a Harrington man who originally worked at the Stack in the Allihies Copper Mines, more or less the equivalent of the area of the Gallows Frames (or Head Frames) of the mines in Butte, Montana; TAILLIUR, a tailor; SLATER, a man to put slates on a roof, at a very important time when roofs were changing from thatch to slate; CAHERAGH were a branch of Harringtons said to have come to Beara from Caheragh, between Drimoleague and Skibbereen; DOCTORS had the gift of curing sick animals though not qualified as regards examinations;Caobach/Keabough means a black-backed seagull --- a strong-willed, dominant bird ---- the meaning must have been transferred to manly qualities; FOLEY, after a Foley woman from Urhan who married a Harrington man from Kilmacowen. There was a "nest" of Harringtons all over Kilmacowen, so this branch were thereafter known as the Foleys; SLASHER. This branch-name in Bere Island came from a famous island man known as Jack the Slasher who at one time held the U.S. record for the speed with which he slashed/drilled mine shafts in Arizona. ----- Riobard.
