Date 1772 - 1952
Etendue et contenuMiscellaneous collection gathered by WP Allen, Christian Brothers, O’Connell School, North Richmond Street, Dublin in 1974 and donated to Archives in 1975.
The scope of this artificial collection is mixed and partial, but it relates to several aspects of Irish social and political history in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.
Some of the items in some measure relate to the O’Connells of Derrynane, Co Kerry, and will be of interest to students of that family and of Daniel O’Connell. The O’Mahony family material, relating to Lt Col Cornelius O’Mahony of the Spanish army, is of genealogical interest. The records of Morgan John O’Connell and his Coppinger connections complement other Coppinger records held in CCCA. Charles Bianconi, Isaac Butt, and John Twiss are all figures of interest in different ways, each of them in a sense echoing political themes associated with O’Connell. The political and social interests of Irish Catholics, especially in Cork and Kerry, and their financial difficulties, are recurring themes throughout this significant collection.
