My family just happened to come from Forkhill who were Protestant Presbyterian and it has to be said the neighbouring farmers were very united all we cared about was looking after each other and our own families
My Father was from Carrickastickan just outside Forkill Stuart. Yes farming and community ties were important and often came before religous differences.
Did that man say The Time Of The Tories? It is a recorded fact that the Tories came from sheep stealers from the south of the emerald isle Tory is the Anglicisation of the Irish word , literally ‘pursued men’ or more figuratively ‘men on the run’. Particularly in 17 century Ireland, it referred to bandits or outlaws, often those driven from their lands by the Plantations that accompanied the Tudor and Stuart conquest of Ireland.. In the early 1600s, the more common name for Irish bandits in English was ‘wood kerne’ - derived from the traditional Gaelic soldiers known as or ‘kern’. But by mid century, during the Confederate and Cromwellian wars, the term TORY had become more widespread for irregular fighters or bandits.A Gaelic poet recalling the speech of Cromwellian troopers in the 1650s as they tried to put down the ‘tories’ remembered them saying; A very bad gunslinger came into our town a few days ago, he asked people question of how he could catch up with them Outlaw fellows, the people were very worried and send him off in the wrong direction, they told him to try that far off country Iceland. You think the Gardaí would deal with those people
He did James & he is indeed referring to the Tories, the raparees, like Séamus Mór Mac Murchaidh, Redmond O'Hanlon and the likes. Yes, it's of Irish origin meaning to hunt or chase and yes the term is used for the Conservative party 17C from Irish also and was a disparaging term in their case.
