The Crosbies of Examiner newspapers of Cork trace their roots to a young Thomas Crosbie who arrived from North Kerry in 1842. He later came to own Examiner newspapers, thus establishing the Cork family newspaper dynasty which flourished through 175 years and five generations until its recent takeover by The Irish Times. The Kerry Crosbies extend to the early 1600s with the original family roots tracing to the MacCrossans, ancient bards to the O'Moores of Laois and O'Connors of Offaly. In the late 1500s two MacCrossan brothers changed their name to Crosbie. Both achieved prominence with Patrick Crosbie becoming a large estate owner in Kerry and Laois while his younger brother John became Protestant Bishop of Ardfert (Kerry). Having established themselves as part of the new ascendancy in Kerry, the Crosbies, along with achieving an Earldom, proceeded to play prominent roles in parliament in both Dublin and Westminster through the centuries. While sometimes controversial landlords, later generations supported Home Rule, with one Kerry Crosbie becoming a candidate for the Irish Parliamentary Party in the 1918 general election. Their two mansions in Kerry, Ardfert Abbey and Ballyheigue Castle, were burned down during the War of Independence and the Civil War. Other family members included Sir Edward Crosbie of Carlow who was dramatically executed during the 1798 rising and his younger brother Richard of Wicklow who became Ireland's first aeronaut. Overall, the story of the Crosbies provides an intriguing insight into the complex llegiances of a prominent Irish family through the centuries to the present time.

Nilsson Heritage Prizewinner, Listowel Writers Week, May 2017 This book reviews the first English Plantation in Irish History, that of County Laois. It tells the story of how the Clans or Septs of Laois (Moores, Kellys, Lawlors, Dowlings, Dorans, McEvoys O'Devoys or Deevys or Dees) were transplanted to County Kerry and discusses the continued presence of their descendants in Kerry through the centuries to the present time. As well as those with an interest in Irish History the book will appeal to genealogists with an interest in Irish Clans. Book Review Extracts "From Laois to Kerry is a surprisingly engaging book and will appeal to those with an interest in the family names, in the history of Laois and Kerry and in Tudor Ireland" Archaeology Ireland, Summer 2017 "From Laois to Kerry is a lively insight into the largely unknown but fascinating story of the Seven Septs of Laois and their transplantation to Kerry" Paul Clements, Irish Times 22nd July 2017 "This study of the Crosbies and their tenants from Co. Laois is a valuable contribution to the local history of Kerry, and will be of particular interest to those bearing the surnames of the Seven Septs of O'Moore county (Laois)." J. Anthony Gaughan, The Irish Catholic, Nov. 2016 "Keane makes a strong case that this plantation (of Laois) was in fact a trial run for the eventual plantation of Ireland, in particular, of course, Ulster. One can't help but think that Keane's work could be turned into a popular seller" Bookworm, History Ireland, January/February 2017

This book examines the Irish experience of the 1918-19 influenza pandemic through a detailed study of the disease in the most industrialised region of the country, the province of Ulster. By exploring the different themes of dispersion of the disease; mortality; gender; medical response and politics - and through case studies of different towns in the province of Ulster - it builds up a picture of the social, economic and political impact of influenza in Ireland. The Ulster experience of the pandemic is examined by constructing micro-histories of industrial cities and towns, along with provincial market towns and a naval port, to provide a basis for comparison of the differing approaches taken to combat the influenza outbreaks throughout Ulster. Contemporary opinion was that Ireland was considerably less affected by the war than the rest of the UK but, this book shows that the war did have a significant influence on how the influenza pandemic impacted on the Irish population from an economic, social and medical point of view. The book also explores the immediate aftermath of the pandemic and how it influenced the Irish response to the influenza scare of 1920 and the viral pandemic of Encephalitis Lethargica which was prevalent for ten years after 1918, as well as discussing what if any lessons learnt from 1918 have been applied to the present-day outbreak of Covid 19. This book will be of interest to academics in economic history, social history, Irish history and pandemic history, and those studying the effects of pandemics on the economy, health provision and pandemic preparedness.

George Touchet, 11th Baron Audley and 1st Earl of Castlehaven was a leading English commander in the decisive Battle of Kinsale in which he was wounded. He later became one of Ireland's largest landowners, possessing 200,000 acres stretching from the lands of the O'Driscolls and O'Mahonys in West Cork to that of the O'Neills of Tyrone. His successor, the 2nd Earl of Castlehaven, married royalty as his wife Anne, eldest daughter of Lord Derby and Alice Spencer of Althorp of more recent Lady Diana fame, was at one stage heir presumptive to the throne of Queen Elizabeth I. However the 2nd Earl was accused by Anne of extreme sexual depravity and, following a sensational trial, was executed in London. Remarkably his successor, the 3rd Earl of Castlehaven of Maddenstown, Co. Kildare, became a leading commander in the Catholic Confederacy uprising and led the resistance in Ireland to Protestant advancement and to Cromwell. In the 19th century three successive Lord Audleys were involved in copper mining on their estate in the Mizen peninsula near Ballydehob in West Cork, a venture which was riddled with fraud and corruption. Their estate later became a focal point in the catastrophe of the Great Famine in the region.In overall terms the story of the lives of the Castlehavens/Audleys can help to illuminate the shifting sands of control and dominance of Irish affairs during many of the key centuries of Irish history.
