In 1798 there was a rebellion in Ireland. From
Wikipedia:
|
Church of Camolin
|
It was an uprising against British
rule in Ireland lasting from May to September 1798. The United
Irishmen, a republican revolutionary group influenced by the ideas
of the American and French revolutions, and also advocating the
rights of catholics as well as presbyterians, were the main organising force behind the
rebellion. Roger was maltreated by the rebels.
Roger Owen, Rector of Camolin, escaped by feigning to be deranged
in his understanding. This clergyman has given since the rebellion
full proof of a genuine spirit of christian charity for though
treated with such cruelty by the rebels that he could hardly be
expected to survive his hardships, he has endeavoured since, as
far as in his power, to mitigate the rage of the lower classes of
Protestants, who have been apt to regard all Romanists in the same light.
[From a letter by Jane Adams (née Owen) to her sister Letitia.]
It is believed, that in Co. Wexford some 6000 people died, in battles
or just in killings, between 1798 and 1820.

on to the fire at one shot just to show he could do it.

Coolkenno, the Old Rectory
(from History Coolkenno; facebook)
|
From History of the Coolkenno Area
(on facebook.com):
According to Richard Codd's "The Field of the Apple Trees",
On 26th April 1868, Rev. Frederick Owen wrote a long letter to the Aghold
Parishioners urging for fundraising to be exacted upon refurbishment
of Littlewood School. An agreement was made with the Estate Office
in Coolattin that the Parish would lease the premises for 99 years
at one shilling per annum, for the purpose of a schoolhouse
connected with the Protestant Established Church, or such Church as
shall correspond therewith, on any new Parliamentary arrangements.
He appealed for £ 16 to be gathered for the costs of refurbishment
and this was successful by the year's end.
The old parish of Aghold, descendant of the Aghowle monastery,
contained the townlands of Aghowle, Coolkenno, Killinure, Munny,
Killabeg, Kilquiggan, Gowle, Boley, Munahullen, Raheenakit and
Barnamuinga (western end of Co. Wicklow).
On: Coolkenno Glebe - The Old Rectory, Killabeg
(from facebook.com/Coolkennohistory):
This building, nestled on
the southern slopes of Gowle Hill was once home to the Aghold Parish
Anglican Rectors for close to 250 years.
Why is it called Coolkenno Glebe when it is in Killabeg?
Good question!
One sure thing, one of the finest views of the Glebe is from the site of St. Michael's.
The actual purchase and ownership of the Glebe lands
(glebe,
land serving as part of a clergyman's benefice and providing income)
were detailed on the Vestry Minutes from October 12th 1875.
It appears communication
with the Representative Church Body was successful in regards of
purchasing the house and associative lands for the benefit of the parish.
This was resolved at £ 515, with a vast amount of the price
donated by the Parishioners. At a meeting of the Select Vestry held
on 26th Dec. 1877, it was resolved that the detached holding on the
Glebe, commonly called "Walker's Holding", having been purchased
by the Parish from the Commissioners of Church Temporalities, the
Rev. Frederick Owen be requested to communicate with the
Rep. Ch. Body with a view to having the said holding vested in them
for the benefit of the Parish. On April 23rd 1878, the Parishioners
recorded their deep sense of obligation to their venerated and
respected Pastor, the Rev. Frederick Owen, for his kindness and
generosity in waiving all claims to the purchase of the Glebe lands
lately offered for sale, but also for securing the same in
perpetuity to the Parish of Coolkenno.
