Parsonstown (Birr) Poor Law Union
(1839 - 1925)

Institutionele geschiedenis

Parsonstown’s Poor Law Union was established on the 8th of May 1839. It was formed from an elected Board of Guardians, with John Drought as chairman, comprising twenty-nine elected members and nine ex-officio Guardians with all members meeting weekly. Parsonstown Union’s area of operation covered 234 square miles from two counties: from Offaly (King’s) – Banagher, Drumcullen, Eglish, Ferbane, Frankfort, Kilcoleman, Kinnety, Lemanagan, Letter, Lusmagh, Seirkyrans, Parsonstown, Shannon Bridge, Shannon Harbour and Tissarin. From County Tipperary – Aglishcloghane, Ballingarry, Dorha, Lockeen, Lorha and Uskeane. The Union was abolished in 1925, with the Board of Guardians powers being transferred to the county councils' Board of Health.

Payments are recorded under columns headed; date, name of officer, for, no. of paying order, medicine and medical appliances, rent of dispensary buildings, books, forms, stationery, printing and advertising, Medical Officers salaries and payments for temporary services, Dispensary Caretakers salaries for payments of temporary services, Midwives for payments of temporary services, vaccination expenses and other expenses.

Accounts from September 1916 to September 1925 are arranged by a monthly account of the payments of the Dispensary Districts of Banagher; Ferbane; Frankford; Birr and Killyon; Kinnitty; Riverstown.

Following the abolishment of the Union in 1925, and the transfer to the county councils' Board of Health, this ledger appears to have been repurposed to include payment accounts broadly across the county, and includes the accounts of Blueball/Killoughey; Daignean/Geashill; Tullamore; Cloneygowan and Portarlington; Kilcormac; Edenderry; Rhode; Rathangan; Roscrea; Shinrone; Moneygall, Tullamore County Hospital; Birr District Hospital; Edenderry District Hospital; Clara.
