For more information see, http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/. Title A name given to the resource LGBT Collection Subject The topic of the resource Stories and memories of LGBT life in Cork City and County. Description An account of the resource The LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender) collection was launched and created in August 2014 by Stephen Dee and Dermot Casey, researchers at the Cork Folklore Project. The Project was established to record and preserve stories and memories of LGBT life in Cork City and County, with a focus prior to decriminalization in 1993 but also to document the important achievements and struggles that contributed to a society that today is far more accepting of LGBT people. This is proven today with the legalisation of same sex marriage through popular vote and the increased visibility of LGBT people in all areas of public life. The collection’s aims are to explore three main aspects: ‘Personal Recollections’ including but not limited to identity, coming out and experiences of homophobia; ‘Community Stories’ based on certain areas, streets, and forms of social interaction within the LGBT community; and ‘Political Movements’, chronicling political events, motivations and outcomes such as the creation of the Cork-based Irish Gay Rights Movement in 1976, Cork Gay Collective in 1980, and UCC Gay Soc in 1980. Each interview we conducted was unique with each interviewee covering some or all of these topics and with some areas being explored in depth. We hope the material can complement LGBT research in Ireland and also stimulate further interest amongst the public in LGBT history. To date we have distributed some of this material to the public with an audio visual presentation on YouTube and in 2016 in conjunction with Cork City Partnership for LGBT Awareness week we produced a public exhibition of our sound excerpts at Cork City Library. Special thanks to all our interviewees and also to Alvina Cassidy whose research also features in this collection. This LGBT collection of interviews is stored within the Cork Folklore Project permanent oral history archive run in conjunction with UCC’s Folklore and Ethnology Department and Northside Community Enterprises, with both a physical and digital presence. As with all our material, access to full interviews is supervised through a variety of permissions and forms.

CD No I think of a general realisation, I suppose because I am a very private kind of a person, I don’t think I am came dashing out through the snow, or like running out from the back of the bushes or anything like that, I just kept it to myself, and I you know, it wasn’t until later years that I was when I was with my current partner, I told my mum, and I told my family and you know, so I don’t think it was a big coming out event, it wasn’t that big of a deal, I told her, I expected she wasn’t going to be very happy about it but she actually, she was very happy about it, she didn’t mind, you know, I had the bags packed at the door, but you know. And I think it is good in my mind, it was kind of easier, because I was gay with somebody else, that you know because sometimes, I find that in that thing, I think I over thought it for so long, like I was twenty-six about the time I told my mother, it was kind of like all the time thinking, oh Jesus what is she, what will happen if this, if, if , if, if all the ifs and buts were going through my head, and finally I said, look I will do, but I think being with somebody else helped me, you know, and I know now that annoys people when I say that, that you have to be in a relationship to come out, I don’t think that at all, for me it was an easier path to take. SD Okay. DC And did your parents, did your mother have any suspicions, when you were a teenager? CD She asked me before and I looked not at all, that is nonsense you know, but I think, I think that is because I didn’t realise myself, you know, I was kind of fighting with it myself, because in school, you know there was a few bullies and things and they used to call me gay, and I used always be trying to know I am not. I am not different at all I had girlfriends and blah blah blah, you know but I so, she did ask, and she kind of ‘oh well I always knew that’ and that kind of annoyed me even more, because you see, what was it about me that you thought like, how dare you, you know, and I am going through the series of having to be in front of the person when I came out so I have to sit in front of the person to see the reaction, and if their eyes were a bit skewed or if they looked down or looked up, then, oh that person, they are okay with it so I can’t be talking to them but my mother went on a spree of telling everyone, when I told her she just, I think she got up on top of the, the truck at the back of the house and just told everyone, so Clive is gay, Clive is gay, Clive is gay, Clive and I hated that because I wanted to see the reaction you know of people, but I think one of the sadder things about being gay, is that you have to, you are constantly telling people, it is not just when I was twenty one or eighteen or when you are meeting new people, [phone rings in the background] constantly your, your telling people, and you know that is very, you know it is hard, you know that you are always having to tell people about your, you know, about your sexuality.

I told him one night, it was around Christmas, his family had gone to bed and we were still having a few drinks and I told him by the way and even authorised that he could tell everyone the following day if he wanted so it got out around that particular circle eventually. I never told anybody at work as such except one fellow and that was pure accident, em, I used to work down west Cork at the time but I lived in the city but this one character he used to like to come up to Cork for a few drinks, wouldn’t say every week now but every second week and he tried to make a point of meeting me and we used to always meet on Douglas Street, the Gables generally at the time and eh, I’d want to get down to Loafers before closing time do you know just to see who was around, whatever, he used go nightclubbing the nights he would come up, stay in Cork for the night and go nightclubbing. I was always escaping from him around eleven o clock and em, one night he says to me, em, Fi (possibly short for Finbarr) where do you go now, you always go away around this time, where do you go? I’m dying to know, ah I said I just go down the road to some other pup down there. Which one do you go to and maybe I had a few pints that night and I said well Dennis actually its fucking Loafers and I told him straight out then and he got the biggest land of his life, em, he more or less said he thought I would be the last person in the world to be gay but anyway he said you know what I always wanted to see what that pub is like can I come down with you, so he actually came down with me for a drink that night. DC Ah cool! FK And em I still meet the same guy, I’m gone out of that firm nine years now maybe and he’s gone out of it even before me but we still meet regularly for a drink, well when I say regularly maybe once a year, twice a year max and he never told anyone else down in work so as far as I’m concerned work never knew but I was always, I worked in west Cork, lived in Cork city so the two lives didn’t clash you know, I kept my social life completely separate from work life so as far as I know nobody down there knew, for as long as I was there now maybe I’m wrong maybe they did know and they were just been polite you know as I’m a good actor you know. I worked with another fellow in Cork, em, up to three years ago and god he was every day he’d be telling me about his conquests for the night with different various women whatever, I met the guy there last year for a drink and em, there was another member with us who he had got to know we used to meet kind of regularly and he got to know another gay character with me and the gay fellow was going away one night and my friend says where are you going now and he said I’m going down to Loafers and he said uh and when he was gone the other fellow asked me I never knew he was gay and I says sure you never asked him, I suppose not he said, by the way I am too he said whaaaat…(laughter) now a week later I met him again or two weeks later and as it turned out he ended up coming back here and initiated some sexual activity.

The collection’s aims are to explore three main aspects: ‘Personal Recollections’ including but not limited to identity, coming out and experiences of homophobia; ‘Community Stories’ based on certain areas, streets, and forms of social interaction within the LGBT community; and ‘Political Movements’, chronicling political events, motivations and outcomes such as the creation of the Cork-based Irish Gay Rights Movement in 1976, Cork Gay Collective in 1980, and UCC Gay Soc in 1980. Each interview we conducted was unique with each interviewee covering some or all of these topics and with some areas being explored in depth. We hope the material can complement LGBT research in Ireland and also stimulate further interest amongst the public in LGBT history. To date we have distributed some of this material to the public with an audio visual presentation on YouTube and in 2016 in conjunction with Cork City Partnership for LGBT Awareness week we produced a public exhibition of our sound excerpts at Cork City Library. Special thanks to all our interviewees and also to Alvina Cassidy whose research also features in this collection. This LGBT collection of interviews is stored within the Cork Folklore Project permanent oral history archive run in conjunction with UCC’s Folklore and Ethnology Department and Northside Community Enterprises, with both a physical and digital presence. As with all our material, access to full interviews is supervised through a variety of permissions and forms.

KC Em, I suppose do you know what, I actually think probably becoming a student union officer in the late 90s, or mid to late 90s would have been really where my view changed, because I grew up in a part of rural very, em, [pause] let’s just say we weren’t very forward-looking in our thought perspective, like I give the example of-- there was a gran-aunt of mine, now deceased, a lovely lady, but she got a -- she got a blood transfusion in hospital and her two-- her biggest concern when she got the blood transfusion because she had black and blue bruising around it was that she was after getting a black-man’s blood and I explained to that wasn’t how it worked, ‘twas just bruising and I also had to explain to her, look the blood could come from anywhere and of course this sent her into free-fall, because as bad as it was the idea that it was a black man’s blood, she then realised that she could’ve got protestant blood and that would’ve been the ultimate no-no, that there was protestant blood gone into her system so I had to get a priest to come along and literally give her a blessing and things to make sure that this protestant blood was dealt with, em, and that wasn’t a hundred years ago, that was literally a little over-- that was within the last twenty years that happened, and I know to this day I’m still interacting with people in different walks of life who haven’t embraced or haven’t opened their eyes to the wider community particularly, so, I suppose, I’ve always been very strong on feminist issues, I’ve been strong on, I suppose, on this particular issue, but like, and I remember when the-- I remember having to explain to people years ago when I took part in a protest about em-- which one that I still to this day can’t get my head around is the blood transfusion, that men-- that gay men can’t give blood, em, and I-- I got-- I was on the television at the time talking about it and I had umpteen people onto me afterwards “Jesus Ken, what were doing, supporting the gays, what’s that all about like?” Whereas to me it just seemed insane, I’m a blood donor as well, there’s a huge shortage of blood donations all the time. These were people for every solid medical reason they could give blood, for, they were willing to give blood when an awful lot of people weren’t and we were turning them down, and unfortunately to this day it still hasn’t been resolved. So em, there’s been-- there was no one issue but a kind of a combination of all that like, I was always going to be supportive when something like this came along then.

Title A name given to the resource LGBT Collection Subject The topic of the resource Stories and memories of LGBT life in Cork City and County. Description An account of the resource The LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender) collection was launched and created in August 2014 by Stephen Dee and Dermot Casey, researchers at the Cork Folklore Project. The Project was established to record and preserve stories and memories of LGBT life in Cork City and County, with a focus prior to decriminalization in 1993 but also to document the important achievements and struggles that contributed to a society that today is far more accepting of LGBT people. This is proven today with the legalisation of same sex marriage through popular vote and the increased visibility of LGBT people in all areas of public life. The collection’s aims are to explore three main aspects: ‘Personal Recollections’ including but not limited to identity, coming out and experiences of homophobia; ‘Community Stories’ based on certain areas, streets, and forms of social interaction within the LGBT community; and ‘Political Movements’, chronicling political events, motivations and outcomes such as the creation of the Cork-based Irish Gay Rights Movement in 1976, Cork Gay Collective in 1980, and UCC Gay Soc in 1980. Each interview we conducted was unique with each interviewee covering some or all of these topics and with some areas being explored in depth. We hope the material can complement LGBT research in Ireland and also stimulate further interest amongst the public in LGBT history. To date we have distributed some of this material to the public with an audio visual presentation on YouTube and in 2016 in conjunction with Cork City Partnership for LGBT Awareness week we produced a public exhibition of our sound excerpts at Cork City Library. Special thanks to all our interviewees and also to Alvina Cassidy whose research also features in this collection.

TW I suppose, when I put bisexual onto myself there would have been more fears, there was an even more different than the ones that are different so now there is the heterosexual people who would consider the homosexual different and then you throw bisexual into the mix now your just messing with it altogether but as I got older it makes me that little bit more unique, and as I always say there is more out there for me then there is for most people because there is more to choose from you know and when people ask me are you in the mood then for a woman one day and a man the next day, it’s nothing like that at all, you know its always, I’ll always go for the person themselves and whether they have a penis or a vagina is just, it just is, it doesn’t really matter that much, so, I mean, yeah I guess I just feel like it makes me that bit more unique.

Yeah, 71’ or ‘73 I forget what year. I have always been interested that we should always keep cutting out everything. I mean I worked in RTE and I was in the film Department and when we would be going out on the road I was well known going into the van with the Irish Times, the Irish Press, the Irish Independent as I went through all the papers, cutting everything out, cutting them perfect, putting the date on, and it went into the Archive of the Irish Gay Rights movement at that time, and I kept an interest in Archives and I mean I did a film about the Irish gay people because I felt it was very important, it shouldn’t be lost and about two and a half three years ago I thought, would you get and interview people about there story what it was like, growing up as being gay and lesbian, I mean at the time, we found that the gay movement, we were all known as homosexual people. There was no, there might have been lesbians we didn’t know about transgender and we didn’t know what the word gay was except having a great time on Gay Byrne, people like that, and it just, it is the sort of thing, I have always been interested, that we should always have information and it is the same way even today, when I have my coffee and everything else in the Irish Film Centre, I always sit at table thirteen, and people say why table thirteen? I say it is the best seat to see everyone that comes in for coffee, so you don’t miss anyone that you may have known or didn’t know. So I have been always interested in gathering up information because I think the more information we have, the easier it is to tell a story. DC And throughout your years in RTE, did you always, did you feel like you were going to do something like this later. EL Yeah, I mean RTE wasn’t a gay area as it may be now, a lot of gay people, the only time it was gay it was at Christmas, when the lights were turned on, in the whole complex, you know, outside and everything else. I, I came out as being gay in RTE I didn’t care, and I always learned that word, F off which was really good, you could say it nicely and you could say it hard, but I didn’t put up with people who were anti-gay, a lot of people might have been anti because they didn’t know what gay was. And I was a, when RTE did programmes about like Cathal O’Shannon and things like that, I knew about it, they would ask me about certain things. Because people made them, oh this is a new story lets get out and be the first ones with it, but RTE wasn’t a pro-gay, but it wasn’t anti. SD Right. Can you tell us about your vision for your project, what is your end result? EL My end result of this project is, that our history isn’t forgotten, that it has been available to everyone, especially for the thousands of young, gay and lesbian and transgender people coming on, that they will know something of their history their story, because their story has been told by people, it has not being told by me, I am just acting as the, I won’t say a judicator because I am not going to be judicate, I’m a facilitator I think would be a better word of getting people telling the story I may, bring them in a certain direction, to make sure that they haven’t forgotten something, you know, which is important like. I interviewed someone recently and I was out, at the GALA Awards did someone mention did so and so mention about, when I person died from an AIDS-related disease, the undertakers wouldn’t take the body, they had to prepare it, so there was a group of people in Dublin who were preparing peoples bodies for, for burial, I didn’t know about my in Dublin, I was in the middle of a lot of things, but I didn’t know about that, but that sort of story, and I also talking to people, who talk about their children that they have adopted and so forth, and I, you know I have learnt a lot of thing. A lot of single older gay men, may not have known that they were gay, but they were the one people that were left at home to mind there mothers to look after them in old age, and people tend to forget that, and they also tend to forget the amount of good work, be the people that have been priests, pastors, have have, done. But there are stories that I am getting out of people but it is in their words and of course before I interview anybody, they have to sign a release form, and maybe doing everything on television but that is so I can get the transcript, the transcriptions done but it also means that it can be made into programmes but only with their permission but if they decide, they do not want it to be transmitted and that, that doesn’t, it doesn’t get done. And it is going to a University, University of Galway and it will be available to everyone, it is not going into the National Archives because I regard it as a black hole of Calcutta. SD Okay DC Okay. SD And can you tell us so a little bit about the book that you plan from your Irish LGBT History Project? EL I have been in touch with the History book of Ireland and they are willing to publish it. They have been talking about cutting it back and I have, and still say no. I am a person that, I think it needs to be bigger. I think I showed you the size, I think the book can be done so I can everything in, but every person I have interviewed, I have all passed it over too, a friend of mine who is a barrister and every interview has been checked, for example, anyone a promise have been named, their name has been changed, unless you give permission for the name to be left in it or they have died because I can’t be sued if they die. SD Right, and the format that the book will take, is it going to contain direct transcripts or are you going to break everything down into themes or? EL It maybe still open, it may be down to themes and then again it may not. I am one of these people, an ex-television person, you don’t make up your mind till nearer the time, and I think there would be a mixture of both. SD Okay, can you talk to us a little bit about the documentary that you directed, did anyone notice us? EL Well I am happy to say, it was shown down here at the Cork Film Festival and it was a surprise to me that I won, I didn’t realise that, I came up with the idea, in RTE, went to Cathal Cohen who was, he wasn’t director general then, no he was head of programmes and I said Cathal, I would like to do it, you know and I said not for the organisation, can I have the use of all, all the footage, and it was forty thousand pounds worth of stuff, he said, go on, it wasn’t costing them money and so I got it all. And I knew what was in the library, that was a good thing about it and then I sat down to write a story and decided what was the best way to do it, and I thought that some classic stuff and I thought that Gay Byrne was so good, when the woman who was talking to, when she was talking about the inserter and the insertee, you know, and it’s a film that is available to everyone but someone without my permission put it on Youtube and I haven’t had, I didn’t bother take it down. I didn’t mind but I think it is important for people to have it. SD Right and the dates of that documentary go from 1973 to 1993? EL That’s when the law, we were all marching up after the law was changed. SD Why 1973, is that our earliest RTE records of that. EL It was the earliest that RTE would have, I think it was the first one they did, was The Late Late Show, with Rose Robertson, which unfortunately was wiped, and you know that was the time they were doing it, you know that was the time they were doing it that, I think the only thing was, was a piece on the radio, done by Líam Nolan talking to two gay people at the start of the first gay conference. DC And that was in 73? EL Yeah, which I was one of the people organising it. But I mean the Late Late Show, I asked Gay Byrne would he agree to have Rose Robertson on and talk about the, yeah, I said would you pay here fare over you know and the hotel, as you would with your guests, yes I would do all that.

Title A name given to the resource LGBT Collection Subject The topic of the resource Stories and memories of LGBT life in Cork City and County. Description An account of the resource The LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender) collection was launched and created in August 2014 by Stephen Dee and Dermot Casey, researchers at the Cork Folklore Project. The Project was established to record and preserve stories and memories of LGBT life in Cork City and County, with a focus prior to decriminalization in 1993 but also to document the important achievements and struggles that contributed to a society that today is far more accepting of LGBT people. This is proven today with the legalisation of same sex marriage through popular vote and the increased visibility of LGBT people in all areas of public life. The collection’s aims are to explore three main aspects: ‘Personal Recollections’ including but not limited to identity, coming out and experiences of homophobia; ‘Community Stories’ based on certain areas, streets, and forms of social interaction within the LGBT community; and ‘Political Movements’, chronicling political events, motivations and outcomes such as the creation of the Cork-based Irish Gay Rights Movement in 1976, Cork Gay Collective in 1980, and UCC Gay Soc in 1980. Each interview we conducted was unique with each interviewee covering some or all of these topics and with some areas being explored in depth. We hope the material can complement LGBT research in Ireland and also stimulate further interest amongst the public in LGBT history. To date we have distributed some of this material to the public with an audio visual presentation on YouTube and in 2016 in conjunction with Cork City Partnership for LGBT Awareness week we produced a public exhibition of our sound excerpts at Cork City Library. Special thanks to all our interviewees and also to Alvina Cassidy whose research also features in this collection. This LGBT collection of interviews is stored within the Cork Folklore Project permanent oral history archive run in conjunction with UCC’s Folklore and Ethnology Department and Northside Community Enterprises, with both a physical and digital presence. As with all our material, access to full interviews is supervised through a variety of permissions and forms.

TD Ah sure we heard it all the time my father like was in the special branch, and they were constantly in those days the guards like kind of following going down any cruising areas, or I remember once talking about some Judge that used to come to Cork like and they would follow him around because he picking up young fellas, there was a kind of balance as far I could see in those days, that, like there was no one obviously anyone open, they were about two openly gay men Martin Bennett in the, what was it called, he had a shop, the bargain stores in the North Main street, he was famous, everyone knew he was gay like, he would be getting off with Echo Boys and things and there was a guy, over in Boreenmanna, who was known as Father Tom I think, even though he wasn’t a priest who was into young fellas as well and there was a fella two doors up and so like it accepted that, our headmaster up in Chriost Rí used bring the good looking guys and he would sit them on his lap, like cute little first and second years and things like that, and we were aware of that, we accepted it, there was another brother who used to do it as well, and that was the norm. I remember now this, there was a brother there who used always fall in love with the young fella who would be playing the boy soprano in the opera, the annual opera, that Gilbert and Sullivan done every year like and he would be trying to kiss him backstage and we would grab, we would be working backstage as well, we would grab the young fella and we would be waiting to land, for Brother Amsel[phonetic??] would to appear, and we would shove him out in front of him. Because we just thought that this is the norm you know, but if you didn’t associate yourself with that, you would be kind of tempted alright to go looking for Uncle Tom, or Father Tom, whatever you called him, but then I kind have started an affair, or a fling with a friend of mine so that solved that problem.

CK Oh absolutely you know because I mean, the other one, is that before the Fairview murder as well there was the Charles Self. And the Charles Self was a designer at RTE, this was in 1981, he was murdered. 1982 was the protest around it, and he was bludgeoned to death, I didn’t see photographs or anything but the description, he was bludgeoned to death in his apartment, he was a well to do designer in RTE, what is presumed is that he brought somebody back and this person went psycho and bludgeoned him to death. Now I suppose I should say that to me this is something I haven’t really talked about before I have, talked to a couple of people personally about it is, in many cases I say to people I have been very lucky, like for instance Lawrence Davis, I hope he doesn’t mind, I am sure he won’t mind me mention it, he is kind of the chair of the LGBT staff network here in UCC, he is from America, but he is living in Dublin and he is commuting up and down but Lawrence and I were talking about violence against gays, because I was saying, we were somewhere yes, we were walking through, and the day of the referendum count, Lawrence was in Cork and we were walking from the count centre to get something to eat, about four or clock in the afternoon, you know the count was coming in, the count centre people were sitting in and cheering, I said to Lawrence this is going on much longer but I am going to need some food, I am going to go out and get some, and he said well I will go with you because we will come back you know, we came back for six o clock news but on the way to get food, we passed by the Gate cinema, and as we were crossing the road, Lawrence said lets go across the road here, and I said why? There were a bunch of young fellas, young teenagers just horsing around, but he felt kind of nervous, I said look, trust me I am from Cork, I know how to handle these guys at this thing but talking about it afterwards I said but I have been lucky really I had never had any violence, I think he said, I have been beaten up twice and it really makes you aware you know, how vulnerable. And I’d had a friend in Dublin and the scene in Dublin and he was a lovely guy, he was a teacher, well he is a teacher, but a lovely guy and he was great outgoing and great fun and, and then I heard he had been beaten up, he had been out cruising in Powerstown [phonetic spelling] Park and he had beaten up and I didn’t see him for about six or nine months and then I met him about yeah twelve months later, and I was talking to him over drink. And he said Cathal my whole life has changed, he said now, said before this happened, I walked around and I didn’t even think about safety, I just assumed I was safe everywhere I went, I didn’t even look around me, I just, now he said, I am terrified of even going to a gay bar without looking around, are there, are there bashers, you know looking for clients there, looking for potential targets, you know because they will follow you out of the bar and then beat you up, he said look I am terrified, my sense of safety, I can’t relax at all, they have destroyed my very living day to day every minute, now Lawrence wasn’t as bad obviously but it was again, if you were beaten up, I said, I was saying to him I haven’t had that experience but then, of course, I ended up saying to him, telling him I think about an experience I did have which was in Cork. I mentioned that Tadgh and Dominic had showed me how to cruise and I said how horrified I was about all this, but I was having difficulty, finding people to have sex with, I have never been, I have always had difficulty with sex in that sense since I was you know. It is, in some people are great they can go into, I have never gone into a sauna, believe it or not, I have gone into a sauna to get money for the Fairview march from people in Dublin but I got it at the counter. I never went, I have never gone into and I lived in Amsterdam and I was just five hundred metres up the way from the night sauna and about seven hundred and fifty metres away from the, the day sauna. People used to say, but why haven’t you? I said, friends of mine used to go, go in but I never, I just somehow it is not my kind, I need to see people, I need to be able to relate to them. I, I need, I am probably still Catholic enough for me to believe, even though I have one night stands, I always said I never have one night stands, I always had a potential relationship until the following morning, they said goodbye, or I said goodbye. So that is the kind of mentality, but there I was in Cork, I was not settled into Cork, I was nineteen, I was living in Sundays Well with my own apartment. So I had my own place, so now I should have been just having sex every night, I should have had a live-in lover, but I certainly should have, I had my own space it was not a problem by not having a bed to go to, not having privacy but I still wasn’t getting the sex. People seem to be shying away from me or I was alienating people, blah blah, I hadn’t met, it was about the time I met David maybe, but the thing is that, I was, and used, I used to get, in those days you got paid in cash, and you got paid a week, once a, on a Friday, and you got, and your money was put in a little brown envelope and they gave it to you, you went down collected it so a Friday afternoon I collected my money, and I was just feeling, I went in, I, I decided to go straight into town. I had lunch at work, because that was kind of thing, I went straight into town went into the bar or whatever, I went into a bar had a few drinks, had a few more drinks, went to, it was probably Le Chateaux I think at the time, or possibly the Imperial or maybe both because there was a kind of, kind of a trail that you could do as well, you know the way gay people, you want to, one bar would be just so boring, it would be much more fun, particularly for the kind of cruisiness. You would move to, and the pub closed, and I was very drunk and I had my brown envelope in my pocket and I walked up, I remember, it must have been the imperial, I walked up North Main street, and there is, when you cross the North Gate Bridge, just at the end of Shandon street, there was a little, tiny little loo, there, which was open air, and was just like literally, two, if you can imagine two concrete walls and there was a kind of entrance way on one side and then there was a piss, wall, and basically just you could just piss there, and the water, and it is just flowed directly into the river, because it was just on the side of the river, so it is like if you know where the taxi company has a little hut there at the end of Shandon street on the quay just directly across from that, so I went and I decided and that was a cruising area a big cruising area as well believe it or not even though it could only fit like two or three people but there, what you need, the way it works. So I went in there [pause] and I came out and there was nobody in there and I so I pissed and I came out and thought right that is the end of it now I said, I am going to walk up home to Sunday’s Well up along the Quay, and as I was walking up along the Quay, I realised I thought there was somebody following me and looked around and there was gorgeous guy, tight clothes, looking like he could be a sailor or something, I thought, and he over took me as I was climbing the hill of Sundays Well and we got talking and he was on for sex, so we went back into my bedsit, and the next thing I remember, I was very drunk so the next thing I remember is that my coat, my coat was on the hook of the back of the door, I was naked, lying naked on the bed and it was just a single bed, and he was half clothed his top was off but not his trousers and he was sitting on me, and I remember him just sort of [pause] pinning my arms down, and saying so you like it rough, and I was saying maybe yeah please. And then he was slapping my face and he was suddenly, suddenly all I remembered is him saying, something about money and of course, I was such a person, I got so insulted with the idea, that there was going to be money involved with this, and then I got frightened. So I was robbed, and I just, so then I got scared, and I remember just saying just take the money, it is in the inside pocket of the jacket or whatever so he took my money and disappeared with all my money for that week, and of course in those days, I lived on a week to week to basis, a bit like Eastenders, you know you only have the money that you earn that week. And I think so, I had to go to Eddie, he was the only person I told about this. I couldn’t tell my parents they would have been horrified and Eddie lent me enough money to get through the week. And I never really told many people but deep down it obviously, when I say I have never been beaten up since. One of the things and that is why I was saying about the back of the bus and being visible, is that [pause] you can have a self-selected, you know, kind of, you control your space, so you never go to spaces where you are likely to be in danger, and so I yes, I would feel that maybe that even though I have covered it up, now that I am looking back, I would say what I learned from that thing, was that I was never going to put myself in that position as possible. And that when I have gone into positions, like when living in Amsterdam, I had an American friend visiting as well from New York but he was a good friend, but he we were walking along the quays one night coming from a bar, a beautiful night, and suddenly he got very edgy, there were two black guys coming for us, and I spoke fluent Dutch at this stage, and there was no thing, of racial, you didn’t have racism in Amsterdam you know it was quiet but he got, very and he had been beaten up in New York and it was, he had that New York kind of distrust of people who were black, in America, kind of deep down, and he is you know, unaware of, he went I said look trust me this is my space, I know it just, but he didn’t we were walking past, and one of the guys could see something going you know could feel it. And just he started shouting what is going on over there, ye don’t like this or something or what and my friend ran, and then I was left there, they came over to me, and so I was talking Dutch to them and persuading them and trying got out of it by talking so I think yeah I mean I feel very strongly that if you know, if you talk about that is why when you look at the Fairview march as I said, this guy has just done his thesis on, on gays against imperialism and that all whole gay collective thing. And he makes a comment and I have just read it, and he makes a comment in it that you know, that we the documentation, and the Archive shows because I would have forgotten some of it so, we deliberately we made a very specific thing, that we were not conservatives saying hang them high, give them harder sentences lock them away for life. We turned the Fairview march in on, and the front banner said stop violence against gay’s and women, and we need to. Nobody should ever feel threatened whether they are because of race of because of the way they look because of who they love or because of their gender Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource LGBT Collection Subject The topic of the resource Stories and memories of LGBT life in Cork City and County. Description An account of the resource The LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender) collection was launched and created in August 2014 by Stephen Dee and Dermot Casey, researchers at the Cork Folklore Project. The Project was established to record and preserve stories and memories of LGBT life in Cork City and County, with a focus prior to decriminalization in 1993 but also to document the important achievements and struggles that contributed to a society that today is far more accepting of LGBT people. This is proven today with the legalisation of same sex marriage through popular vote and the increased visibility of LGBT people in all areas of public life. The collection’s aims are to explore three main aspects: ‘Personal Recollections’ including but not limited to identity, coming out and experiences of homophobia; ‘Community Stories’ based on certain areas, streets, and forms of social interaction within the LGBT community; and ‘Political Movements’, chronicling political events, motivations and outcomes such as the creation of the Cork-based Irish Gay Rights Movement in 1976, Cork Gay Collective in 1980, and UCC Gay Soc in 1980. Each interview we conducted was unique with each interviewee covering some or all of these topics and with some areas being explored in depth. We hope the material can complement LGBT research in Ireland and also stimulate further interest amongst the public in LGBT history. To date we have distributed some of this material to the public with an audio visual presentation on YouTube and in 2016 in conjunction with Cork City Partnership for LGBT Awareness week we produced a public exhibition of our sound excerpts at Cork City Library. Special thanks to all our interviewees and also to Alvina Cassidy whose research also features in this collection. This LGBT collection of interviews is stored within the Cork Folklore Project permanent oral history archive run in conjunction with UCC’s Folklore and Ethnology Department and Northside Community Enterprises, with both a physical and digital presence. As with all our material, access to full interviews is supervised through a variety of permissions and forms.

Partly I suppose because you know, say the three years in my undergraduate from the age of seventeen to twenty, I was realising more and more, this isn’t a phase that is a going away. This is how I am, and I must be the only one as well, but I knew I wasn’t, because there was an attempt and I, -- DC What was year was this now was this in UCC? BOD I started in 78 and I think it would have been maybe about ’79 or ’80 there was an attempt to establish a gay society and that is what it was going to be called a gay soc, gay in UCC. And the University opposed it, in fact, the University wouldn’t allow it, so I don’t know what year, I, I? DC I think it was about then because we spoke to Cathal and he? BOD To Cathal Kerrigan? DC Yeah, he was the auditor wasn’t he ? -- BOD Well he, well he was the auditor, well he was also that was an interesting story in itself, because that would have been either my second or third year so either 79 or 80 and he, he was elected as a, what would you call it, chairman or president, of the UCC students Union. And you know I think he got it because his dad was a TD so he was seen as a natural leader or whatever and then after he was elected president of the students Union, he came out or he let it be known that he was gay. And this caused a lot of consternation; I don’t think there is any way he would have been voted in, if that had been known prior, because, I actually I can put a date on this, I think it was 1980, or 81 because the hunger strikes were on in Northern Ireland, so it was an awful time in Ireland generally like you know the economy was down the toilet, and then you had this nothing seem to go right for the country but anyway the hunger strikes were on and as part of that, the students union, I think Cathal may have, I don’t know done something, like closed in sympathy or made some expression of sympathy in one direction or another. And there was a general assembly of the students call somebody objected to this, now I can’t remember what led up to this, but anyway so there was general assembly, in the main restaurant in UCC and Cathal stood up, and it was like prior to that he had led some kind of a student protest about fees or something like that, and there was a sit-in, in the presidents office and you know there were kind of general meetings, and he would have seen as somebody who was doing stuff that was worth doing but then he came out and there was this general meeting called, as I say, I think it was about the hunger strikes and the student response to it and he got up on the stage and he said something like oh we have a query here from somebody and the whole place erupted into laughter, and it was like, I was looking around, I was like whatever, nineteen, twenty, I was looking around, I was like seriously? Like that is the reaction, that is you know this is so funny because a queer has the said the word query? And I do remember thinking you know looking around the room and saying these are, this is Irelands future leaders, this is not a good sign, you know and to be honest I didn’t have a high opinion of my fellow students, and you know the kind of guffaws of laughter, and oh Jesus it was pathetic, but then things got on to things to discussing whatever substantive issue was, but that for me, was a kind of a real moment of kind rejection if you like by my peers even though it had nothing to do with me.

Title A name given to the resource The Cork Memory Map Collection Subject The topic of the resource A place-based interviewing project exploring everyday life in Cork City, with excerpts disseminated on a series of online digital maps. Description An account of the resource A place-based interviewing project exploring everyday life in Cork City, with excerpts disseminated on a series of online digital maps. In 2010, the Cork Folklore Project initiated a new collection and dissemination project, entitled the Cork Memory Map. We wished to step up our interviewing programme and enhance public access to our holdings through the creation of an online map of stories and memories. A central concern in this initial stage was to keep our research agenda as open as possible in terms of generating accounts of everyday life in the city down through the years. As we were not carrying out topic-focussed interviews (in contrast to previous projects on topics such as song in the Northside, drag hunting and occupational lore), the place-based focus enabled us to explore everyday life at different stages of interviewees’ life histories, remaining open to cues from the interviewees while maintaining a sense of direction and purpose for all involved. The fact that the interviews were structured around memories of place, rather than taking the form of life history interviews, also had an impact on the material gathered. The initial phase of interviewing was carried out in the main with older residents of Cork City, Ireland, who grew up in the city centre or adjacent suburbs and who were born between 1929 and 1950. Lasting between 45 minutes and two hours, individual interviews in the Memory Map project tend to follow a similar pattern. A description of the interviewee’s childhood neighbourhood is followed by a succession of ‘grand tour’ questions about daily routines, work and play within the neighbourhood. Places important or familiar to interviewees were explored, as were routes habitually taken through the landscape. This narrative base was used as a springboard for using cues provided by the interviewees as the basis for follow-up questions on significant people and activities mentioned. A sub-collection of shorter interviews was generated during Heritage Week (20-28 August) 2011. The Cork Folklore Project, in collaboration with Civic Trust House, launched the Memory Map Project with an exhibition and collection event throughout the week. Visitors to the exhibition were invited to ‘put themselves on the map’ through short interviews. The Memory Map also featured in a ten-minute Curious Ear documentary broadcast on RTÉ Radio 1 during Heritage Week, and available as a podcast (The Curious Ear/Documentary on One (Cork City Memory Map) http://www.rte.ie/radio1/doconone/2011/0816/646858-curious-ear-doconone-cork-city-memory-map/). The bulk of the interviews were carried out between July and December 2010 (21 interviews), with 9 full-length interviews carried out in the second half of 2011, along with 18 shorter interviews carried out during heritage week, 23-27 August 2011, and 9 interviews in the second half of 2012. 1 video interview was carried out in January 2014 with Memory Map interviewee Pat Speight. The design for the map and supporting database design was carried out by Cheryl Donaghue (UCC) as project work for an MSc in Interactive Media, with assistance from Colin Mac Hale. The Project received support for the further technical development of the map from the Irish Heritage Council in 2012. The map itself has undergone various iterations, the most recent being its preparation for use on the Omeka platform by the CFP team and PhD candidate Penny Johnston in 2016/2017. Existing and subsequent interviews from the CFP collections have also been utilised for the online mapping dissemination project: the interviews designated as ‘memory map’ interviews are those carried out specifically with the map in mind from 2010 onwards. Support: This project was supported by the Heritage Council of Ireland in the Heritage Education Community and Outreach grant scheme, 2012, and also received support from the Cork City Council Community Grants Scheme.

We would have had no need to go out there anyway because we had Goulding’s Glen at our doorstep, so in the Summer we’d be in Goulding’s Glen and you know if it was very warm now you’d go down there and swim. And they had loughs kind of built off, blocked off so that it would be deeper in areas you know. What it was actually was the Glen river that ran through Goulding’s Glen and actually ran down all Blackpool behind the houses in Spring Lane and down behind the houses in Thomas Davis Street. We would have played there as well and we called that place the High Bank. That ran now right behind the houses in Thomas Davis Street. The laneways, now all the laneways are gone. It would have come out then by then by Assumption Convent. I can’t remember the name of the Assumption convent now. It’s the big pink building. But we would have played there as well and em -- but it was channelled in that part. Up further where it ran behind the houses in Spring Lane there was a pig farmer and you could play -- you know, we could paddle away there in the water there but at certain times then you couldn’t because he’d kill the pigs. And all the stuff that would come out of the pigs would be left go into the water so you had to be very careful you know, to make sure that, that he wasn’t killing pigs at the time you decided to play in the water. But em I suppose in a sense looking back on it we had great freedom you know because we seemed to have great freedom to play and do stuff you know and we went to the cinema in Blackpool in, in The Lido and we’d go to the baths, Eglantine Baths over by the City Hall. Very rarely would we venture out of our own area you know, so, people now that lived maybe in Farranree and Blackpool itself would have went out to Murphy’s Rock but as I said Goulding’s Glen was just outside our door so we had it all really.

Title A name given to the resource Breda Sheehan: Blackpool, Childhood Games, Slogging for Apples Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Description An account of the resource Breda (born circa 1950) grew up in Spring Lane, Blackpool. It was an industrial area with Goulding’s fertilizer factory and Ellis’s quarry. She remembers a childhood game of swinging on a rope put up an ESB electricity pole. She remembers a number of colloquial local placenames. She remembers people who called to the house such as the insurance man, with whom they had “penny policies”. Milk was bought from a milkman by filling one’s own jug. The rent man and a rag and bone man also called. Swimming was done in a stream near a piggery; it had to be avoided when pigs were being killed. Shopping was done on a daily basis. She describes her route to school; she had to pass an unpleasant slaughterhouse. Thomas Davis Street was different from what it has become. She remembers getting caught by a security guard "slogging apples" in an orchard. Breda was a researcher for the Cork Folklore Project.

Title A name given to the resource The Cork Memory Map Collection Subject The topic of the resource A place-based interviewing project exploring everyday life in Cork City, with excerpts disseminated on a series of online digital maps. Description An account of the resource A place-based interviewing project exploring everyday life in Cork City, with excerpts disseminated on a series of online digital maps. In 2010, the Cork Folklore Project initiated a new collection and dissemination project, entitled the Cork Memory Map. We wished to step up our interviewing programme and enhance public access to our holdings through the creation of an online map of stories and memories. A central concern in this initial stage was to keep our research agenda as open as possible in terms of generating accounts of everyday life in the city down through the years. As we were not carrying out topic-focussed interviews (in contrast to previous projects on topics such as song in the Northside, drag hunting and occupational lore), the place-based focus enabled us to explore everyday life at different stages of interviewees’ life histories, remaining open to cues from the interviewees while maintaining a sense of direction and purpose for all involved. The fact that the interviews were structured around memories of place, rather than taking the form of life history interviews, also had an impact on the material gathered. The initial phase of interviewing was carried out in the main with older residents of Cork City, Ireland, who grew up in the city centre or adjacent suburbs and who were born between 1929 and 1950. Lasting between 45 minutes and two hours, individual interviews in the Memory Map project tend to follow a similar pattern. A description of the interviewee’s childhood neighbourhood is followed by a succession of ‘grand tour’ questions about daily routines, work and play within the neighbourhood. Places important or familiar to interviewees were explored, as were routes habitually taken through the landscape. This narrative base was used as a springboard for using cues provided by the interviewees as the basis for follow-up questions on significant people and activities mentioned. A sub-collection of shorter interviews was generated during Heritage Week (20-28 August) 2011. The Cork Folklore Project, in collaboration with Civic Trust House, launched the Memory Map Project with an exhibition and collection event throughout the week. Visitors to the exhibition were invited to ‘put themselves on the map’ through short interviews. The Memory Map also featured in a ten-minute Curious Ear documentary broadcast on RTÉ Radio 1 during Heritage Week, and available as a podcast (The Curious Ear/Documentary on One (Cork City Memory Map) http://www.rte.ie/radio1/doconone/2011/0816/646858-curious-ear-doconone-cork-city-memory-map/). The bulk of the interviews were carried out between July and December 2010 (21 interviews), with 9 full-length interviews carried out in the second half of 2011, along with 18 shorter interviews carried out during heritage week, 23-27 August 2011, and 9 interviews in the second half of 2012. 1 video interview was carried out in January 2014 with Memory Map interviewee Pat Speight. The design for the map and supporting database design was carried out by Cheryl Donaghue (UCC) as project work for an MSc in Interactive Media, with assistance from Colin Mac Hale. The Project received support for the further technical development of the map from the Irish Heritage Council in 2012. The map itself has undergone various iterations, the most recent being its preparation for use on the Omeka platform by the CFP team and PhD candidate Penny Johnston in 2016/2017. Existing and subsequent interviews from the CFP collections have also been utilised for the online mapping dissemination project: the interviews designated as ‘memory map’ interviews are those carried out specifically with the map in mind from 2010 onwards. Support: This project was supported by the Heritage Council of Ireland in the Heritage Education Community and Outreach grant scheme, 2012, and also received support from the Cork City Council Community Grants Scheme.

But Christmas we always got toys. And we always got --I remember one time, as a child, she bringing me into Robert Day’s inside in town, and going around the store with me, and asking me what I would like Santa to bring me. And I remember seeing this three-wheeled tricycle, and I was drawn to that, but then I saw a china tea set. And then I told her I wanted… first I wanted the tricycle, we were halfway down the stairs, and I changed my mind, I wanted the china set. But we always, you know, seemed to have got what we wanted at Christmas. But sure, I regretted the china set, like. Because I wasn’t allowed put any water into the cups or the teapots, in case I’d make a mess. So maybe I used the china set in my make-believe shop. It’s possible I was probably bringing people in and, you know, giving them cups of tea and putting sugar in it and pouring milk into the tea, and stuff like that. But we didn’t seem to get toys at any other time of the year, only Christmas, so what you got at Christmas, really, had to do you for the year. But as I said now we always seemed to have got what we wanted. I remember another time, my sister, I woke up on Christmas morning and there was a pram in the room and a go-car, what we’d call a buggy now today, but it was one of these real strong go-cars. But the go-car was for me, and the pram was for my sister, she was two years younger. And I grabbed the pram, and I wouldn’t leave go. And there was murder on the Christmas morning because none of us wanted this buggy, we wanted the pram, and we had each got a doll as well like, you know. Easter then, she’d always make sure we had Easter eggs on Easter. Era we survived grand.

Title A name given to the resource Breda Sheehan: Halloween Games, Childhood Games, Family Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Description An account of the resource Breda (born circa 1950) grew up in Spring Lane, Blackpool. As a child she used to play in The Glen, which was then in the countryside. The neighbourhood houses were small, with an outside toilet, so that every Saturday the children were washed in a tin tub and treated for head lice. She talks about the childhood games she and her friends played, dangerous antics like running over railway tracks or playing at deep water tanks. She remembers Christmas time and keeping her eyes shut in case she saw Santa Claus and she might be given nothing. She describes Halloween games and the different elements placed in the barm brack and what they signified, and she says that you were not supposed to go out on All Saint’s Night in case you met a spirit. She talks about the game of Picky (hopscotch), Release, and ‘stones’, and how they were played. As a child, money could be earned selling a bucket of blackberries, or delivering food waste to a pig farmer. She describes her household chores and responsibilities. She used to get ‘messages’ for a neighbour, a woman who never married but who knew the secrets of everybody in the area. This neighbour told her the story of an older woman who married a younger man, whose parents locked him in his bedroom on the wedding day to prevent the union. She comments that she left school at 14, but had to attend a One Day Week school when she began working. She notes that she was both a child and an adult. She comments about praying to Saint Anthony to resolve small life issues. She describes what happened at dances and how boys and girls interacted and dated. She talks about changes to Blackpool over the years. She lists a number of the lanes which were demolished in the 1960s and the occupants housed in Farranree. She comments on how shopping was done, in small amounts, daily; and she explains that milk was bought from a farmer’s churn and taken home in a jug. She talks fondly about her grandmother and her relationship with her. Her grandmother had a hard life: both her parents died when she was young and she and her siblings hid from orphanage officials who had come to collect them; she raised her siblings, Breda tells a story about her grandmother begging her sister for some money, a sister who died many years later leaving a mattress full of money, unclaimed.

Title A name given to the resource The Cork Memory Map Collection Subject The topic of the resource A place-based interviewing project exploring everyday life in Cork City, with excerpts disseminated on a series of online digital maps. Description An account of the resource A place-based interviewing project exploring everyday life in Cork City, with excerpts disseminated on a series of online digital maps. In 2010, the Cork Folklore Project initiated a new collection and dissemination project, entitled the Cork Memory Map. We wished to step up our interviewing programme and enhance public access to our holdings through the creation of an online map of stories and memories. A central concern in this initial stage was to keep our research agenda as open as possible in terms of generating accounts of everyday life in the city down through the years. As we were not carrying out topic-focussed interviews (in contrast to previous projects on topics such as song in the Northside, drag hunting and occupational lore), the place-based focus enabled us to explore everyday life at different stages of interviewees’ life histories, remaining open to cues from the interviewees while maintaining a sense of direction and purpose for all involved. The fact that the interviews were structured around memories of place, rather than taking the form of life history interviews, also had an impact on the material gathered. The initial phase of interviewing was carried out in the main with older residents of Cork City, Ireland, who grew up in the city centre or adjacent suburbs and who were born between 1929 and 1950. Lasting between 45 minutes and two hours, individual interviews in the Memory Map project tend to follow a similar pattern. A description of the interviewee’s childhood neighbourhood is followed by a succession of ‘grand tour’ questions about daily routines, work and play within the neighbourhood. Places important or familiar to interviewees were explored, as were routes habitually taken through the landscape. This narrative base was used as a springboard for using cues provided by the interviewees as the basis for follow-up questions on significant people and activities mentioned. A sub-collection of shorter interviews was generated during Heritage Week (20-28 August) 2011. The Cork Folklore Project, in collaboration with Civic Trust House, launched the Memory Map Project with an exhibition and collection event throughout the week. Visitors to the exhibition were invited to ‘put themselves on the map’ through short interviews. The Memory Map also featured in a ten-minute Curious Ear documentary broadcast on RTÉ Radio 1 during Heritage Week, and available as a podcast (The Curious Ear/Documentary on One (Cork City Memory Map) http://www.rte.ie/radio1/doconone/2011/0816/646858-curious-ear-doconone-cork-city-memory-map/). The bulk of the interviews were carried out between July and December 2010 (21 interviews), with 9 full-length interviews carried out in the second half of 2011, along with 18 shorter interviews carried out during heritage week, 23-27 August 2011, and 9 interviews in the second half of 2012. 1 video interview was carried out in January 2014 with Memory Map interviewee Pat Speight. The design for the map and supporting database design was carried out by Cheryl Donaghue (UCC) as project work for an MSc in Interactive Media, with assistance from Colin Mac Hale. The Project received support for the further technical development of the map from the Irish Heritage Council in 2012. The map itself has undergone various iterations, the most recent being its preparation for use on the Omeka platform by the CFP team and PhD candidate Penny Johnston in 2016/2017. Existing and subsequent interviews from the CFP collections have also been utilised for the online mapping dissemination project: the interviews designated as ‘memory map’ interviews are those carried out specifically with the map in mind from 2010 onwards. Support: This project was supported by the Heritage Council of Ireland in the Heritage Education Community and Outreach grant scheme, 2012, and also received support from the Cork City Council Community Grants Scheme.

My father didn’t like the thought of us being inside in the big park with -- not being supervised, you know, and now and then there’d be an expedition and we’d sneak in, because -- that only happened very rarely though because we, we knew we weren’t supposed to do it. But like the swings were in there, you know, and there were some fantastic they were -- swings to us, there were lower ones and then higher ones and then there was a big slide, and like it was a rite of passage as you got older, you were able to climb up to the top of the the slide, that was quite a feat because there would be people directly behind you and in front of you and you’d feel trapped when you’d stand up at the top of the high slide, to, to sit down then to go down the slide, so these sort of things. We had great fun on the occasions when we got in there, but we didn’t often get in there like. And a lot of people went out to the baths that were out the Straight Road. They were -- But we used to go away on a Sunday for a spin like, so we didn’t go out there. Swim, you know. But that was a place where -- that was very busy in the neighbourhood for children as well like. And em -- I can’t think about what else we used to do. Playing in neighbour’s gardens as well like you know, and you’d be safe there. And we had our own particular buddies. They were across the Western Road, one of the little houses was afterwards -- all those houses were sold to the college afterwards. But we used to go down playing down there, but the problem then was that you had to cross the Western Road and that was a bit hazardous like. You know, when we were small that was another embargo, you weren’t allowed to cross the Western Road until we got a bit older. So that was fair enough like, it was very dangerous.

Title A name given to the resource The Cork Memory Map Collection Subject The topic of the resource A place-based interviewing project exploring everyday life in Cork City, with excerpts disseminated on a series of online digital maps. Description An account of the resource A place-based interviewing project exploring everyday life in Cork City, with excerpts disseminated on a series of online digital maps. In 2010, the Cork Folklore Project initiated a new collection and dissemination project, entitled the Cork Memory Map. We wished to step up our interviewing programme and enhance public access to our holdings through the creation of an online map of stories and memories. A central concern in this initial stage was to keep our research agenda as open as possible in terms of generating accounts of everyday life in the city down through the years. As we were not carrying out topic-focussed interviews (in contrast to previous projects on topics such as song in the Northside, drag hunting and occupational lore), the place-based focus enabled us to explore everyday life at different stages of interviewees’ life histories, remaining open to cues from the interviewees while maintaining a sense of direction and purpose for all involved. The fact that the interviews were structured around memories of place, rather than taking the form of life history interviews, also had an impact on the material gathered. The initial phase of interviewing was carried out in the main with older residents of Cork City, Ireland, who grew up in the city centre or adjacent suburbs and who were born between 1929 and 1950. Lasting between 45 minutes and two hours, individual interviews in the Memory Map project tend to follow a similar pattern. A description of the interviewee’s childhood neighbourhood is followed by a succession of ‘grand tour’ questions about daily routines, work and play within the neighbourhood. Places important or familiar to interviewees were explored, as were routes habitually taken through the landscape. This narrative base was used as a springboard for using cues provided by the interviewees as the basis for follow-up questions on significant people and activities mentioned. A sub-collection of shorter interviews was generated during Heritage Week (20-28 August) 2011. The Cork Folklore Project, in collaboration with Civic Trust House, launched the Memory Map Project with an exhibition and collection event throughout the week. Visitors to the exhibition were invited to ‘put themselves on the map’ through short interviews. The Memory Map also featured in a ten-minute Curious Ear documentary broadcast on RTÉ Radio 1 during Heritage Week, and available as a podcast (The Curious Ear/Documentary on One (Cork City Memory Map) http://www.rte.ie/radio1/doconone/2011/0816/646858-curious-ear-doconone-cork-city-memory-map/). The bulk of the interviews were carried out between July and December 2010 (21 interviews), with 9 full-length interviews carried out in the second half of 2011, along with 18 shorter interviews carried out during heritage week, 23-27 August 2011, and 9 interviews in the second half of 2012. 1 video interview was carried out in January 2014 with Memory Map interviewee Pat Speight. The design for the map and supporting database design was carried out by Cheryl Donaghue (UCC) as project work for an MSc in Interactive Media, with assistance from Colin Mac Hale. The Project received support for the further technical development of the map from the Irish Heritage Council in 2012. The map itself has undergone various iterations, the most recent being its preparation for use on the Omeka platform by the CFP team and PhD candidate Penny Johnston in 2016/2017. Existing and subsequent interviews from the CFP collections have also been utilised for the online mapping dissemination project: the interviews designated as ‘memory map’ interviews are those carried out specifically with the map in mind from 2010 onwards. Support: This project was supported by the Heritage Council of Ireland in the Heritage Education Community and Outreach grant scheme, 2012, and also received support from the Cork City Council Community Grants Scheme.

If you wish to access further archival material for this interview or other interviews please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com JCK: Well now, there was a substantial population in a very, very small area. Because of small houses, up a laneway, you could have thirty, forty or fifty houses. So with big families in small houses, you had a sizeable population and taking up very little area. Now, the people that lived there -- you had a variety. The variety in the sense you had poor people, but you had people who would be considered very well off. And the reason for it was -- as an example, Corbett’s Lane. If you walked up Corbett’s Lane, the first four houses would be small houses with ordinary people, working class people, in them. When you came to the fifth house, it would be a two-story farmhouse with a big black gate, tarred gate, above it, and a big yard at the back of the house. Now, at the back of that house, the people who lived in that house had cattle and sheep. Now, you could -- you could have the same thing in another couple of houses and then a big double storey house, and you could continue up the lane at both sides with that situation. So you had poor, and people who would be considered fairly well off for the times, all living in the one lane. Now at the top of the lane, my grandmother, Polly Kelleher, lived, my father’s mother, and across the way from their house was two tripe houses, Welsh’s and Reilly’s, and around the corner, you had another tripe house, Dylan’s. So you had three tripe, drisheen places at the top of Corbett’s lane, at the junction of Corbett’s -- top of Corbett’s Lane and Kearney’s Lane. And at one -- at one o’clock in the day the hooter would go in those places and a lot of women would come out with their rubber aprons and their clogs for their dinner break, and they all lived in the laneways around. So you had plenty -- you had a lot of work going on in those places because you -- as well as tripe and drisheen houses you had slaughter-houses. And to go back to those days, we weren’t far from the countryside, so you could understand that a lot of the men that lived in the area were butchers, and predominantly the butchers came from the north side of the city rather than the south side, because of the area that they were, you had the slaughter-houses. Now, as well as that then, you had families who, their father reared them, and they earned their wages by being cattle-drovers. They’d go up -- the men’d go up Fairhill at two or three o’clock in the morning, round up cattle belonging to the farmers and hunt the cattle from there down to Midleton, or to Carrigaline, or out to Macroom for the fairs at seven o’clock. As a matter of fact, there was one fair held every Saturday morning right over off Anglesea Street, across from the Garda Station, in that little square there across from the Garda Station. Every Saturday morning you had a fair there, and there’d be sheep and pigs on sale there. And those two pubs, one -- the two of them are there but one is idle at the moment -- and eh twas -- they were farmers’ pubs.

Title A name given to the resource Johnny Chris Kelleher: The Evening Echo, Schooldays, Tuberculosis Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Description An account of the resource Johnny Chris was born in 1929 in Fair Lane, later called Wolfe Tone Street. His mother, Mary Margaret Kelleher (1901 - 1970) was married twice; her first husband died of TB in 1924; she had to get a job selling newspapers to support her family. His father was Tommy Kelleher; he later lost his legs. His sister lost an arm in an accident at O’Gorman’s hat factory. Johnny Chris still sold newspapers into his 80s, to keep agile and to meet people. He lists some of the old lanes of the Northside. He describes the housing on Corbett’s Lane. The areas of Shandon Street and Ballymacthomas were close to the country, and men worked as cattle drovers for farmers, bringing cattle to fairs in the county. Without a social welfare system, people turned their hands to all kinds of menial work. There was nevertheless a good quality of life. Johnny Chris talks about people’s sports and past-times. He praises the rise in the standard of living but laments the loss of a sense of community. The character of the Northside was formed by social housing and the movement of masses of people who lived side by side to new housing there, again side by side. He talks about the street names and the lanes of Cork. He discusses his schooling and the teaching of the Irish language. Johnny Chris recalls the editions of the Evening Echo newspaper printed during World War II, and his working life selling the newspaper. How he heard about the death of Christy Ring; telling Taoiseach Jack Lynch the news. The different newspapers reflected people’s political persuasions; the Echo was for working people. He talks about Blackpool, its residents and industries. He recalls the North Infirmary, and how it was used by people; how his father had a leg amputated there. He remembers hearing about his sister’s industrial accident. He worked for Cork Corporation. People didn’t really take holidays. Johnny Chris then describes working life at The Cork Examiner newspaper, and how the Evening Echo was distributed. How drisheen and tripe were eaten is also discussed. He recalls Father O’Flynn, who had a method to cure stammering; the BBC made a documentary about him in 1948; he went over to help King George VI. He relates a funny story about the Corporation making and storing coffins in case of any local bombing casualties during World War II; they were gradually stolen and sold on to undertakers for money to buy drink. He tells another story about Whacker, a local character.

Title A name given to the resource The Cork Memory Map Collection Subject The topic of the resource A place-based interviewing project exploring everyday life in Cork City, with excerpts disseminated on a series of online digital maps. Description An account of the resource A place-based interviewing project exploring everyday life in Cork City, with excerpts disseminated on a series of online digital maps. In 2010, the Cork Folklore Project initiated a new collection and dissemination project, entitled the Cork Memory Map. We wished to step up our interviewing programme and enhance public access to our holdings through the creation of an online map of stories and memories. A central concern in this initial stage was to keep our research agenda as open as possible in terms of generating accounts of everyday life in the city down through the years. As we were not carrying out topic-focussed interviews (in contrast to previous projects on topics such as song in the Northside, drag hunting and occupational lore), the place-based focus enabled us to explore everyday life at different stages of interviewees’ life histories, remaining open to cues from the interviewees while maintaining a sense of direction and purpose for all involved. The fact that the interviews were structured around memories of place, rather than taking the form of life history interviews, also had an impact on the material gathered. The initial phase of interviewing was carried out in the main with older residents of Cork City, Ireland, who grew up in the city centre or adjacent suburbs and who were born between 1929 and 1950. Lasting between 45 minutes and two hours, individual interviews in the Memory Map project tend to follow a similar pattern. A description of the interviewee’s childhood neighbourhood is followed by a succession of ‘grand tour’ questions about daily routines, work and play within the neighbourhood. Places important or familiar to interviewees were explored, as were routes habitually taken through the landscape. This narrative base was used as a springboard for using cues provided by the interviewees as the basis for follow-up questions on significant people and activities mentioned. A sub-collection of shorter interviews was generated during Heritage Week (20-28 August) 2011. The Cork Folklore Project, in collaboration with Civic Trust House, launched the Memory Map Project with an exhibition and collection event throughout the week. Visitors to the exhibition were invited to ‘put themselves on the map’ through short interviews. The Memory Map also featured in a ten-minute Curious Ear documentary broadcast on RTÉ Radio 1 during Heritage Week, and available as a podcast (The Curious Ear/Documentary on One (Cork City Memory Map) http://www.rte.ie/radio1/doconone/2011/0816/646858-curious-ear-doconone-cork-city-memory-map/). The bulk of the interviews were carried out between July and December 2010 (21 interviews), with 9 full-length interviews carried out in the second half of 2011, along with 18 shorter interviews carried out during heritage week, 23-27 August 2011, and 9 interviews in the second half of 2012. 1 video interview was carried out in January 2014 with Memory Map interviewee Pat Speight. The design for the map and supporting database design was carried out by Cheryl Donaghue (UCC) as project work for an MSc in Interactive Media, with assistance from Colin Mac Hale. The Project received support for the further technical development of the map from the Irish Heritage Council in 2012. The map itself has undergone various iterations, the most recent being its preparation for use on the Omeka platform by the CFP team and PhD candidate Penny Johnston in 2016/2017. Existing and subsequent interviews from the CFP collections have also been utilised for the online mapping dissemination project: the interviews designated as ‘memory map’ interviews are those carried out specifically with the map in mind from 2010 onwards. Support: This project was supported by the Heritage Council of Ireland in the Heritage Education Community and Outreach grant scheme, 2012, and also received support from the Cork City Council Community Grants Scheme.

M C: Well, I suppose there was Jackson’s Terrace which is now gone. It was off Langford Row. That’s the one that sticks out. I remember as a child saying when I was bigger I’d cross Langford Row and go over and see the -- I thought they were spectacular houses. Sure the poor people probably didn’t think -- they were two-storey houses and a narrow kind of entrance to them and obviously like, the distance between their front doors was very little and I think there was a toilet down at the end, a communal. But they used to say it was beautifully kept, you know. The people kept the place very well. But there was -- like you couldn’t -- you’d only get a bicycle in between the, the houses but I thought it was -- you know, as a child. And I was going to cross the road and see those houses, and by the time I was ready to cross the road, Jackson’s Terrace was knocked and ‘tis the apartments there in, in -- it was a garage afterwards and then ‘tis an apartment in Langford now. And I suppose like, that whole community at the end of High Street, like there was about seven houses, like cottages in Langford Row, which was, you know, whole families. And then there was Mrs Donnelly and Curtin the bookie, and Fitzgibbon’s and Cosgrave’s and Curtin’s and Dorgan’s shop, all taken, and at the other side of the road then, there was Houston’s pub and all the houses in Summer Hill South, their gardens were shortened to make the road wide. So ‘twas a -- and then there was a whole -- there was as many more, there was about five or six houses in Summer Hill South taken as well, small houses. So ‘twas like a whole community just for progress but it was a whole community removed, you know. G O’D: Mm, and where were they -- would they have -- where were they re-settled then? M C: Well it -- if the people owneded the houses they just were compensated and they bought houses elsewhere, and if they didn’t they were housed in different places, mostly in Ballyphehane.

Title A name given to the resource Marie Crean: South Parish, Cinemas, Black and Tan’s Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Description An account of the resource Marie was born (in the 1950s) and reared in High Street, in the South Parish, off Douglas Street; she thinks the street was formerly Quarry Lane. Some of her area was altered to make a new road. She went to school in South Presentation. She recalls picking blackberries and slogging apples. There were few cars and everybody walked everywhere. As a child, she travelled a lot with her family on the train. She talks about her early working life. She worked for Hanlon’s fish merchants. Marie remembers her old neighbourhood and how some of it was demolished, both houses and shops, particularly Jackson’s Terrace. Some men in her neighbourhood were involved in the War of Independence and the Civil War. She tells the story of the Black and Tan’s searching for them at a funeral. Young people went courting on the disused Bandon railway line. She worked making altar breads, with the Reparation Nuns. She tells a funny story about how a corpse was washed and the water was thrown after the hearse afterwards. She mentions several cinemas in Cork and recalls that The Savoy cinema had a great organist.

We wished to step up our interviewing programme and enhance public access to our holdings through the creation of an online map of stories and memories. A central concern in this initial stage was to keep our research agenda as open as possible in terms of generating accounts of everyday life in the city down through the years. As we were not carrying out topic-focussed interviews (in contrast to previous projects on topics such as song in the Northside, drag hunting and occupational lore), the place-based focus enabled us to explore everyday life at different stages of interviewees’ life histories, remaining open to cues from the interviewees while maintaining a sense of direction and purpose for all involved. The fact that the interviews were structured around memories of place, rather than taking the form of life history interviews, also had an impact on the material gathered. The initial phase of interviewing was carried out in the main with older residents of Cork City, Ireland, who grew up in the city centre or adjacent suburbs and who were born between 1929 and 1950. Lasting between 45 minutes and two hours, individual interviews in the Memory Map project tend to follow a similar pattern. A description of the interviewee’s childhood neighbourhood is followed by a succession of ‘grand tour’ questions about daily routines, work and play within the neighbourhood. Places important or familiar to interviewees were explored, as were routes habitually taken through the landscape. This narrative base was used as a springboard for using cues provided by the interviewees as the basis for follow-up questions on significant people and activities mentioned. A sub-collection of shorter interviews was generated during Heritage Week (20-28 August) 2011. The Cork Folklore Project, in collaboration with Civic Trust House, launched the Memory Map Project with an exhibition and collection event throughout the week. Visitors to the exhibition were invited to ‘put themselves on the map’ through short interviews. The Memory Map also featured in a ten-minute Curious Ear documentary broadcast on RTÉ Radio 1 during Heritage Week, and available as a podcast (The Curious Ear/Documentary on One (Cork City Memory Map) http://www.rte.ie/radio1/doconone/2011/0816/646858-curious-ear-doconone-cork-city-memory-map/). The bulk of the interviews were carried out between July and December 2010 (21 interviews), with 9 full-length interviews carried out in the second half of 2011, along with 18 shorter interviews carried out during heritage week, 23-27 August 2011, and 9 interviews in the second half of 2012. 1 video interview was carried out in January 2014 with Memory Map interviewee Pat Speight. The design for the map and supporting database design was carried out by Cheryl Donaghue (UCC) as project work for an MSc in Interactive Media, with assistance from Colin Mac Hale. The Project received support for the further technical development of the map from the Irish Heritage Council in 2012. The map itself has undergone various iterations, the most recent being its preparation for use on the Omeka platform by the CFP team and PhD candidate Penny Johnston in 2016/2017. Existing and subsequent interviews from the CFP collections have also been utilised for the online mapping dissemination project: the interviews designated as ‘memory map’ interviews are those carried out specifically with the map in mind from 2010 onwards. Support: This project was supported by the Heritage Council of Ireland in the Heritage Education Community and Outreach grant scheme, 2012, and also received support from the Cork City Council Community Grants Scheme.

You know there was so many things happened there. Like it was the centre of my life, really. You know it was just a dirty old -- there was nettles at the side of it, a big hole in the middle, but we just were there day and night, whatever sport was in, rugby, cycling whatever like. The Mangle Field was huge. They would be huge. I mean all the, all the right-hand side of Gurranabraher like, which is all houses now, they were all fields. There was, opposite my house was a place called the dump. There was a flat field on top of it and then going up then in stages, tiered, there were two or three em fields which where -- everybody was playing football and hurling all the time. Now Leary’s Field is still there, that’s up further in the top of Fairhill, like the right-hand side of Churchfield, eh that’s still there, yeah. The Fairfield is there still, yeah. That, that was always there, because that’s how obviously Fairhill got its name. ‘Twas a huge hill, on up the Fairfield. Eh it’s not used that often really. The other ones would be em [pause] it’s hard to say. The only other thing with all the boxing clubs and things like that, they’re all gone now a long, long time, you know? Em, the only other thing that we missed was em, we called it Bonty’s, ‘twas kind of a big bog, boggish field. Eh where Valley Drive is now, past where my house was, there was all em plots. Em we were all given plots by the corporation, you’d have a little plot you know and you grew spuds there. ‘Twas a very -- it has come back in again now actually. And I remember on a Saturday, I would bring up a em, what they -- a gally, a billy can of tea to my father and a couple of slices of bread, and he’d be, he’d be digging the spuds or, or I’d be helping him you know. But they were all em, that’s all plot land and there was all water seeping, it’s still seeping down there, coming up along the side of the road, because that stream was coming all the way down. The stream, the same stream, well it came out where we learnt to swim and where all the rats and bottles and dead pups were, you know? It flows all the way down underneath Fairhill, down onto the Watercourse Road and out under by the, by the, by the Opera House. It comes out there and that joins up with the Watercourse Road then coming in from Blackpool. Eh with the Watercourse Road again, that’s why ‘twas named em -- that’s all completely gone now like, all Churchfield, all the right-hand side of Gurranabraher, Columcille Road, all em, all em -- I’m saying new houses, the new houses are probably there fifty years, you know? That’s all gone. There was a lot of playing fields around the place, the North Monastery is still there, I think anyway. Although I, I have a feeling those fields are gone now, they’re taken up by, by clubs like St Vincents and, and eh Maybe Father O Leary’s and em Castleview soccer team, I think they’re all taken up. ‘Cause they were belong to the North Monastery. There was maybe eight or ten hurling pitches. G M Right. J M I’ve a feeling they’re all gone, you know? So like I mean, it was, where I lived was practically out in the country. ‘Twas on the verge of the country anyway, you know when you come up to Wolfe Tone Street there, the start of Fairhill, there was fields all over the place you know that’s -- F-Fairhill ended the city if you know what I mean.

Title A name given to the resource James 'Jim' McKeon: Northside, Sport, Writing, Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Description An account of the resource Jim (b. 1940s) remembers that his father worked for the railways and had a tied cottage in an area known as Kilbarry Cottages, or Railway Cottages. Then the family moved to Paddock House, Fairhill. The house was at the top of Washbrew Lane, and came with 2 or 3 acres. Jim remembers the Eucharistic Procession, when the fire brigade hosed down the lane and women scrubbed the street clean. There was a well at the top of the lane called Fahy’s Well. He tells another story about a woman who called into a shop to borrow a wedding ring on her wedding day. How animals were maltreated. Boxing was a popular sport because there was no costs involved. They played all sorts of sports and games, including “kiss and torture” and “spin the bottle”. He describes a pervasive fear of authority. He loved school and won a prize every week there. He went to school in Blackpool and appreciated his teacher, Cal Herlihy, who instilled a love of theatre and astronomy. He was very shy as a child and young adult. He was working in the Post office, but he developed a love of theatre and became an actor and writer. Jim talks about the writing process. His love for the work of Frank O’Connor and his writing a biography of him. Working as a telegram boy for the Post Office. In the Post office you could secretly do other activities. Youghal as a holiday destination. Areas of the Northside that have changed over time. His mother wrote and read letter for Travellers. He talks about two “shop houses” (or house shops), where a room in an ordinary house was used as a small shop for essential goods. His mother’s house shop sold “brus”, a confectionery mixture made from broken sweets. The difficulties of learning painting; of writing and of performing. Working life at the Post Office. Handling large sums of money, with no security. He talks about the character of Cork and Cork people.

Title A name given to the resource The Cork Memory Map Collection Subject The topic of the resource A place-based interviewing project exploring everyday life in Cork City, with excerpts disseminated on a series of online digital maps. Description An account of the resource A place-based interviewing project exploring everyday life in Cork City, with excerpts disseminated on a series of online digital maps. In 2010, the Cork Folklore Project initiated a new collection and dissemination project, entitled the Cork Memory Map. We wished to step up our interviewing programme and enhance public access to our holdings through the creation of an online map of stories and memories. A central concern in this initial stage was to keep our research agenda as open as possible in terms of generating accounts of everyday life in the city down through the years. As we were not carrying out topic-focussed interviews (in contrast to previous projects on topics such as song in the Northside, drag hunting and occupational lore), the place-based focus enabled us to explore everyday life at different stages of interviewees’ life histories, remaining open to cues from the interviewees while maintaining a sense of direction and purpose for all involved. The fact that the interviews were structured around memories of place, rather than taking the form of life history interviews, also had an impact on the material gathered. The initial phase of interviewing was carried out in the main with older residents of Cork City, Ireland, who grew up in the city centre or adjacent suburbs and who were born between 1929 and 1950. Lasting between 45 minutes and two hours, individual interviews in the Memory Map project tend to follow a similar pattern. A description of the interviewee’s childhood neighbourhood is followed by a succession of ‘grand tour’ questions about daily routines, work and play within the neighbourhood. Places important or familiar to interviewees were explored, as were routes habitually taken through the landscape. This narrative base was used as a springboard for using cues provided by the interviewees as the basis for follow-up questions on significant people and activities mentioned. A sub-collection of shorter interviews was generated during Heritage Week (20-28 August) 2011. The Cork Folklore Project, in collaboration with Civic Trust House, launched the Memory Map Project with an exhibition and collection event throughout the week. Visitors to the exhibition were invited to ‘put themselves on the map’ through short interviews. The Memory Map also featured in a ten-minute Curious Ear documentary broadcast on RTÉ Radio 1 during Heritage Week, and available as a podcast (The Curious Ear/Documentary on One (Cork City Memory Map) http://www.rte.ie/radio1/doconone/2011/0816/646858-curious-ear-doconone-cork-city-memory-map/). The bulk of the interviews were carried out between July and December 2010 (21 interviews), with 9 full-length interviews carried out in the second half of 2011, along with 18 shorter interviews carried out during heritage week, 23-27 August 2011, and 9 interviews in the second half of 2012. 1 video interview was carried out in January 2014 with Memory Map interviewee Pat Speight. The design for the map and supporting database design was carried out by Cheryl Donaghue (UCC) as project work for an MSc in Interactive Media, with assistance from Colin Mac Hale. The Project received support for the further technical development of the map from the Irish Heritage Council in 2012. The map itself has undergone various iterations, the most recent being its preparation for use on the Omeka platform by the CFP team and PhD candidate Penny Johnston in 2016/2017. Existing and subsequent interviews from the CFP collections have also been utilised for the online mapping dissemination project: the interviews designated as ‘memory map’ interviews are those carried out specifically with the map in mind from 2010 onwards. Support: This project was supported by the Heritage Council of Ireland in the Heritage Education Community and Outreach grant scheme, 2012, and also received support from the Cork City Council Community Grants Scheme.

Title A name given to the resource The Cork Memory Map Collection Subject The topic of the resource A place-based interviewing project exploring everyday life in Cork City, with excerpts disseminated on a series of online digital maps. Description An account of the resource A place-based interviewing project exploring everyday life in Cork City, with excerpts disseminated on a series of online digital maps. In 2010, the Cork Folklore Project initiated a new collection and dissemination project, entitled the Cork Memory Map. We wished to step up our interviewing programme and enhance public access to our holdings through the creation of an online map of stories and memories. A central concern in this initial stage was to keep our research agenda as open as possible in terms of generating accounts of everyday life in the city down through the years. As we were not carrying out topic-focussed interviews (in contrast to previous projects on topics such as song in the Northside, drag hunting and occupational lore), the place-based focus enabled us to explore everyday life at different stages of interviewees’ life histories, remaining open to cues from the interviewees while maintaining a sense of direction and purpose for all involved. The fact that the interviews were structured around memories of place, rather than taking the form of life history interviews, also had an impact on the material gathered. The initial phase of interviewing was carried out in the main with older residents of Cork City, Ireland, who grew up in the city centre or adjacent suburbs and who were born between 1929 and 1950. Lasting between 45 minutes and two hours, individual interviews in the Memory Map project tend to follow a similar pattern. A description of the interviewee’s childhood neighbourhood is followed by a succession of ‘grand tour’ questions about daily routines, work and play within the neighbourhood. Places important or familiar to interviewees were explored, as were routes habitually taken through the landscape. This narrative base was used as a springboard for using cues provided by the interviewees as the basis for follow-up questions on significant people and activities mentioned. A sub-collection of shorter interviews was generated during Heritage Week (20-28 August) 2011. The Cork Folklore Project, in collaboration with Civic Trust House, launched the Memory Map Project with an exhibition and collection event throughout the week. Visitors to the exhibition were invited to ‘put themselves on the map’ through short interviews. The Memory Map also featured in a ten-minute Curious Ear documentary broadcast on RTÉ Radio 1 during Heritage Week, and available as a podcast (The Curious Ear/Documentary on One (Cork City Memory Map) http://www.rte.ie/radio1/doconone/2011/0816/646858-curious-ear-doconone-cork-city-memory-map/). The bulk of the interviews were carried out between July and December 2010 (21 interviews), with 9 full-length interviews carried out in the second half of 2011, along with 18 shorter interviews carried out during heritage week, 23-27 August 2011, and 9 interviews in the second half of 2012. 1 video interview was carried out in January 2014 with Memory Map interviewee Pat Speight. The design for the map and supporting database design was carried out by Cheryl Donaghue (UCC) as project work for an MSc in Interactive Media, with assistance from Colin Mac Hale. The Project received support for the further technical development of the map from the Irish Heritage Council in 2012. The map itself has undergone various iterations, the most recent being its preparation for use on the Omeka platform by the CFP team and PhD candidate Penny Johnston in 2016/2017. Existing and subsequent interviews from the CFP collections have also been utilised for the online mapping dissemination project: the interviews designated as ‘memory map’ interviews are those carried out specifically with the map in mind from 2010 onwards. Support: This project was supported by the Heritage Council of Ireland in the Heritage Education Community and Outreach grant scheme, 2012, and also received support from the Cork City Council Community Grants Scheme.

Your gas would go if the money went down, like petrol in your car and you’d have to top it up, put money in and the gas would be on again. But every -- I don’t know how often it would have been, the gas man would come and you’d nearly always, your mother would nearly always get money back. But I don’t think it was the fact that my mother was getting money, I was always fascinated at how quickly the gas men could count the money. I used be foolish and they’d be putting it into the bags, and tying the bags and into their bag then, you know, and then your mother would get a receipt for how much gas was used and what money was over then, she’d get back. And he might only do half the lane. They’d be all ‘the gas man is coming, the gas man will be here’ you know and whoever -- like supposing you lived across the road -- the – the lane from me an he came to me an I maybe got four pound back, but he’d be coming to you tomorrow but you’d have no money. So like you’d – you’d get money from me until he gave you yours tomorrow, do you know. When the gas man came ‘twas like Santa, that they got money back [laugh]. Those kinds of memories really are what you’d have, do you know. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Breda St Ledger: Blackpool, Childhood Games, Family Life, Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Description An account of the resource Breda (b. 1949) grew up in Thomas Davis Avenue, in Blackpool. The houses were built new in the 1960s. They lived with a relative who told her and her brother scary stories. She went to the North Presentation Convent school. She talks briefly about the practice of grandmothers’ rearing a child of the family. Her brothers seasoned chestnuts to play conkers. The girls played scraps – making cut out shapes. She says that children were never bored and had lots to do, like picking blackberries, or making a place to swim in; she contrasts them with today’s bored teenagers. Breda talks about some of the memorable characters who lived in her area. She remembers the gas man coming to collect money for their use of gas, but who might repay money, too. Food was bought on a daily basis, and her mother paid for things on a weekly basis, having an account in a number of shops; these included Dunleas, Miss Healy's, Cantys, Dan Lyons, Mary Welsh, Kingston's, O’Leary’s butcher's shop. Clothes were sent from relatives in America. The family was well fed but there was nothing extra.

Title A name given to the resource The Cork Memory Map Collection Subject The topic of the resource A place-based interviewing project exploring everyday life in Cork City, with excerpts disseminated on a series of online digital maps. Description An account of the resource A place-based interviewing project exploring everyday life in Cork City, with excerpts disseminated on a series of online digital maps. In 2010, the Cork Folklore Project initiated a new collection and dissemination project, entitled the Cork Memory Map. We wished to step up our interviewing programme and enhance public access to our holdings through the creation of an online map of stories and memories. A central concern in this initial stage was to keep our research agenda as open as possible in terms of generating accounts of everyday life in the city down through the years. As we were not carrying out topic-focussed interviews (in contrast to previous projects on topics such as song in the Northside, drag hunting and occupational lore), the place-based focus enabled us to explore everyday life at different stages of interviewees’ life histories, remaining open to cues from the interviewees while maintaining a sense of direction and purpose for all involved. The fact that the interviews were structured around memories of place, rather than taking the form of life history interviews, also had an impact on the material gathered. The initial phase of interviewing was carried out in the main with older residents of Cork City, Ireland, who grew up in the city centre or adjacent suburbs and who were born between 1929 and 1950. Lasting between 45 minutes and two hours, individual interviews in the Memory Map project tend to follow a similar pattern. A description of the interviewee’s childhood neighbourhood is followed by a succession of ‘grand tour’ questions about daily routines, work and play within the neighbourhood. Places important or familiar to interviewees were explored, as were routes habitually taken through the landscape. This narrative base was used as a springboard for using cues provided by the interviewees as the basis for follow-up questions on significant people and activities mentioned. A sub-collection of shorter interviews was generated during Heritage Week (20-28 August) 2011. The Cork Folklore Project, in collaboration with Civic Trust House, launched the Memory Map Project with an exhibition and collection event throughout the week. Visitors to the exhibition were invited to ‘put themselves on the map’ through short interviews. The Memory Map also featured in a ten-minute Curious Ear documentary broadcast on RTÉ Radio 1 during Heritage Week, and available as a podcast (The Curious Ear/Documentary on One (Cork City Memory Map) http://www.rte.ie/radio1/doconone/2011/0816/646858-curious-ear-doconone-cork-city-memory-map/). The bulk of the interviews were carried out between July and December 2010 (21 interviews), with 9 full-length interviews carried out in the second half of 2011, along with 18 shorter interviews carried out during heritage week, 23-27 August 2011, and 9 interviews in the second half of 2012. 1 video interview was carried out in January 2014 with Memory Map interviewee Pat Speight. The design for the map and supporting database design was carried out by Cheryl Donaghue (UCC) as project work for an MSc in Interactive Media, with assistance from Colin Mac Hale. The Project received support for the further technical development of the map from the Irish Heritage Council in 2012. The map itself has undergone various iterations, the most recent being its preparation for use on the Omeka platform by the CFP team and PhD candidate Penny Johnston in 2016/2017. Existing and subsequent interviews from the CFP collections have also been utilised for the online mapping dissemination project: the interviews designated as ‘memory map’ interviews are those carried out specifically with the map in mind from 2010 onwards. Support: This project was supported by the Heritage Council of Ireland in the Heritage Education Community and Outreach grant scheme, 2012, and also received support from the Cork City Council Community Grants Scheme.

If you wish to access further archival material for this interview or other interviews please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com B S: Sean, when you were standing at your front door, could you describe to me your street, you know what was opposite you, what was maybe your view? S L: I certainly can, I certainly can. Outside my door eh of one-eight-five was the blank wall with the background of Mount Saint Joseph’s eh brothers college. It was the mother house of the Presentation Brothers of the world so to speak and that was truly the mother house which is today -- in, in today’s terms is used as Share accommodation. Eh the Brothers are out of it as such but eh there were dozens of brothers there and you’d see them marching in and there was a lovely big driveway and majestic-looking steps going up into that beautiful building off Blarney Street. It’s eh -- the the steps are done away with, the driveway is still there. Some local people are actually working up there with the, the older folks there now that are accommodated above there and em the -- I’d say it’s lovely inside there because it was a beautiful building. But right across the road from me was the eh derelict site so to speak. There were ten or twelve houses there for the last I’d say about ten years right across the road at this point now so that side was totally occupied at this point but em. When we’d lose a ball playing outside our doors now so to speak -- because there was very little traffic in the forties right up long the whole lot of the fifties. We’d have steering cars out in the middle of the road. There wouldn’t be a car on the road and we’d oil em up in such a way like -- who was going to be the fastest coming down to the Brothers’ gate you know and em all of that and we spent hours oiling them up and the old ball bearings from the garages we, we’d go to a garage and say, ‘Have you any old ball bearings?’ and we’d get a set, they’d be delighted to give them. And eh then we’re out the country then, to make another bob then -- was eh picking the blackberries and bringing them in to the market or bringing them down to Ogilvie and Moore’s and we’d actually pick bucket-loads of them but you’d have to get the down before the day’s end because if you left them over for the next day there was a kind of a fur, they weren’t as fresh looking as the day before, and you’re going to lose money by saying -- ah they’re yesterday’s fruit. But they’d still take them but if you can get down there and run yourself back down into the city and get, get them sold you get a nice couple of bob then and we’d do that for days, for as long as the season would last and em they were all little bits and then we, we’d have our little bits gamble then with our bowl playing and whatever. And all of the friends and the friends that were there that time are my friends today. S- Anywhere in town or going out the road, you’re friends forever with them. And they’d be literally hundreds and hundreds of people of at those bowl-playing scores at the time. My dad was very involved as well on the -- for the -- bringing senior players on the Clogheen Road and we’d play out then to the, the laneway running down to the Curraghk-- Curraghkippane em graveyard which is two or three miles I’d say in length in the score. ‘Twould take hours to get there. Trying to push out the amount of people at the time but they were -- you’d never think of home you know or food or anything you’d just be out there. You’re part and parcel of the scene that was in it. ‘Twas a lovely social scene you know. I think the kids today you know eh -- there’s a different direction today but the minute the television came there in -- what? ’60, '61, '2 whatever time around that -- when you were renting a television at the, at the time and it just sucked the children in off of the streets literally overnight, and ‘twas never the same after.

Title A name given to the resource Seán Lane: Blarney Street, Butchers, Bowling, Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Description An account of the resource Seán Lane was born in 1942. His parents were both from Blarney Street, where he was raised. His father was a bacon butcher. He talks about his childhood. Children were always on the lookout for any opportunity to make a penny, such as cow-herding or picking fruit. There was a great community spirit. People made do with allotments and bird-catching, they kept pigs, hens or cows. Some traders collected household waste as pig-feed. Children played in the streets but once television came in the 1960s, they stayed indoors. He tells a funny story about leading a horse through a pub. He describes playing bowls, learning to dance in the dance halls in the late 1950s. He remembers some of the street characters from his childhood. Seán’s father later had a shop and he pickled meat there; poor people ate offal bones, which had quite a lot of meat still on them. He recalls the various slaughterhouses around Blarney Street.

Title A name given to the resource The Cork Memory Map Collection Subject The topic of the resource A place-based interviewing project exploring everyday life in Cork City, with excerpts disseminated on a series of online digital maps. Description An account of the resource A place-based interviewing project exploring everyday life in Cork City, with excerpts disseminated on a series of online digital maps. In 2010, the Cork Folklore Project initiated a new collection and dissemination project, entitled the Cork Memory Map. We wished to step up our interviewing programme and enhance public access to our holdings through the creation of an online map of stories and memories. A central concern in this initial stage was to keep our research agenda as open as possible in terms of generating accounts of everyday life in the city down through the years. As we were not carrying out topic-focussed interviews (in contrast to previous projects on topics such as song in the Northside, drag hunting and occupational lore), the place-based focus enabled us to explore everyday life at different stages of interviewees’ life histories, remaining open to cues from the interviewees while maintaining a sense of direction and purpose for all involved. The fact that the interviews were structured around memories of place, rather than taking the form of life history interviews, also had an impact on the material gathered. The initial phase of interviewing was carried out in the main with older residents of Cork City, Ireland, who grew up in the city centre or adjacent suburbs and who were born between 1929 and 1950. Lasting between 45 minutes and two hours, individual interviews in the Memory Map project tend to follow a similar pattern. A description of the interviewee’s childhood neighbourhood is followed by a succession of ‘grand tour’ questions about daily routines, work and play within the neighbourhood. Places important or familiar to interviewees were explored, as were routes habitually taken through the landscape. This narrative base was used as a springboard for using cues provided by the interviewees as the basis for follow-up questions on significant people and activities mentioned. A sub-collection of shorter interviews was generated during Heritage Week (20-28 August) 2011. The Cork Folklore Project, in collaboration with Civic Trust House, launched the Memory Map Project with an exhibition and collection event throughout the week. Visitors to the exhibition were invited to ‘put themselves on the map’ through short interviews. The Memory Map also featured in a ten-minute Curious Ear documentary broadcast on RTÉ Radio 1 during Heritage Week, and available as a podcast (The Curious Ear/Documentary on One (Cork City Memory Map) http://www.rte.ie/radio1/doconone/2011/0816/646858-curious-ear-doconone-cork-city-memory-map/). The bulk of the interviews were carried out between July and December 2010 (21 interviews), with 9 full-length interviews carried out in the second half of 2011, along with 18 shorter interviews carried out during heritage week, 23-27 August 2011, and 9 interviews in the second half of 2012. 1 video interview was carried out in January 2014 with Memory Map interviewee Pat Speight. The design for the map and supporting database design was carried out by Cheryl Donaghue (UCC) as project work for an MSc in Interactive Media, with assistance from Colin Mac Hale. The Project received support for the further technical development of the map from the Irish Heritage Council in 2012. The map itself has undergone various iterations, the most recent being its preparation for use on the Omeka platform by the CFP team and PhD candidate Penny Johnston in 2016/2017. Existing and subsequent interviews from the CFP collections have also been utilised for the online mapping dissemination project: the interviews designated as ‘memory map’ interviews are those carried out specifically with the map in mind from 2010 onwards. Support: This project was supported by the Heritage Council of Ireland in the Heritage Education Community and Outreach grant scheme, 2012, and also received support from the Cork City Council Community Grants Scheme.
