Abstract
Little has been written in the way of a formal history of the events surrounding the
evictions, that took place on the O'Kelly estate situated on the margins of the 'Bog of
Allen' in County Kildare in the late 1800s. The aim of this thesis is to rectify this by
telling the story and asking a number of questions of these events and examining the
effect, the evictions had on the community in Clongorey.
The O' Kelly estate consisted of almost 2,500 acres and embodied the townslands of
Clongorey, Barrettstown, Blacktrench and Tankards Garden.
