Some of these are pertinent to this list: : I have started transcribing and posting some of the newsclippings relating to Creggan Parish which I photographed when I was in Ireland last fall - thanks to the generosity of Kieran McConville. Through the act of annotating them, I am learning so much more about the various players. It becomes a way to find the news behind the news, as it were. Today, I posted five more news items: 1842 February 3 <http://www.thesilverbowl.com/documents/newsclippings/1842Feb3-PresbyterianMarriages.html> This news clipping details decisions made at a meeting in Newtownhamilton in response to a decision by Irish judges to invalidate marriages between Presbyterians and Episcopalians when they are performed by Presbyterian Ministers.A dozen of those involved are named. 1846 March 7 <http://www.thesilverbowl.com/documents/newsclippings/1846Mar7--ObitBALL.html> Obit for Samuel BALL, son of Captain BALL 1833 February 5 <http://www.thesilverbowl.com/documents/newsclippings/1833Feb5-CLEWLOW.html> Rent reduction. Mrs. CLEWLOW had family ties to the DONALDSONs of Freeduff, so it is not surprising that she was well acquainted with the issues of tenant rights, and also seems sympathetic to the needs of her tenants. These DONALDSONs were key figures in the 1798 uprising, and thereafter. January 27, 2012 1829 April 28 <http://www.thesilverbowl.com/documents/newsclippings/1829Apr28-BALL-JACKSON.html> A lease for Urker Lodge - John BALL. 1781 March 2 <http://www.thesilverbowl.com/documents/newsclippings/1781Mar2-OLIVER.html> There is still more work to do when it comes to definitively proving which Andrew OLIVER, a distiller in Newtownhamilton this one was. As I learn more, I will update the footnotes. Another way to access them is to go to the NEW link on my home page. As always, I appreciate being alerted to my errors, so I can have the opportunity to fix them. Enjoy, Sharon Oddie Brown. -- Sharon Oddie Brown, Roberts Creek, BC, Canada.
