BBC - History - Enniskillen and Newtownbutler 1689 - 1690   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05) Lieutenant-General Justin MacCarthy, recently created Viscount Mountcashel by James II, meanwhile advanced north from Dublin with a formidable Jacobite army, and by 28th July was bombarding Crom castle to the south east of Enniskillen. In response, the 'Inniskillingers' advanced from Enniskillen on Mountcashel at Newtownbutler. With 3,000 men facing 2,000 Williamites, Mountcashel should have won; but a confused order to his cavalry caused them to turn tail, and the Jacobite foot was driven to the shores of Upper Lough Erne. www.bbc.co.uk /history/timelines/ni/ennis_newt.shtml   (218 words)

St. Marys This was the typical mode of transportation to church, especially in the winter when Goladuff was cut off from land by flooding and at other times of the year when the ground was soggy. For a priest to perform such an act in those days was criminal in the eyes of the civil administrators and a warrant was immediately issued for his arrest. A friendly policeman from Lisnaskea came to Newtownbutler disguised as a tramp and warned Father Clark of his impending capture and possible imprisonment. www.tinneny.net /origins/st_marys.html   (1366 words)

Newtownbutler nationalists called nationalists' from all over Ireland to block loyal order parade Tempers rose in Newtownbutler yesterday after it was learned that Royal Black Institution members intended to go ahead with their march through the village tomorrow. However, last night Newtownbutler Residents Association was calling on "nationalists throughout Ireland to come along and support the residents of Newtownbutler in their time of need" if attempts are made to force the Royal Black Institution march through the village. Newtownbutler residents' spokesman Kevin Lawrenson said villagers were calling on the Blackmen to voluntarily call off the parade "in order to defuse a volatile situation." He said a protest by residents from nearby Roslea was called off after Blackmen there voluntarily re-routed their parade away from the village. www.residentgroups.fsnet.co.uk /newtownbutler.htm   (540 words)

AN PHOBLACHT/REPUBLICAN NEWS   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05) Mr O'Reilly told An Phoblacht that an attempt by the DPP to introduce the catch-all charge of ``seeking to hinder'' the Black Perceptory march in place of the original ``obstruction'' charges faced by the 18 was ``an attempt to ensure easy convictions''. The Newtownbutler residents claim the DPP came to the court with evidence that was doctored to give them an advantage over the defence. The case arises from a protest in 1997 when residents of Newtownbutler objected to a Royal Black Preceptory parade through their town and were beaten off the streets by the RUC. republican-news.org /archive/1999/February18/18ferm.html   (503 words)

The Irish "session" When I returned to Newtownbutler, which I had been visiting over a ten-year period, while writing, when I did a post-dissertation visit in 1992, sessions had made their appearance. I suggest that unlike the songs, which were fraught with palpable meaning for the community, the session music, brought in through radio and records, while pleasant to listen to, did not bear the same meaning for the community. At one session, at the end of the evening, some of the older singers sang began to perform songs which encapsulated what being from Newtownbutler is about, and,the moment the singing began, the whole atmosphere changed, and virtually everyone in the pub became intensely engaged. www.standingstones.com /session.html   (1242 words)

GAA World - Fermanagh - Devenish GAA Sunday the 27th of November 1960 will have a special place is the history of Devenish G.F.C. A decision to amalgamate the two junior clubs of Devenish and Mulleek resulted in a first senior football championship, and was the start of what to date has been ten championship successes. Due to the intense preparation and training of the Fermanagh county team to win the All Ireland Junior Football Championship in 1959 the Fermanagh senior football championship for 1959 between Newtownbutler and Roslea was not played until September 1960. The 1960 final itself was a closely contested affair, however the much lauded Newtownbutler forward line failed to live up to expectations on the day, and scored only one point of their total. www.irishnews.com /gaaworld/ulster/Fermanagh/Devenish/1960.html   (326 words)
