Society for the Promotion Education of the Poor 1819, Schools, West Cork

Some West Cork Teachers, only a drop in the ocean gleaned from deeds, church records, directories.

Among the Protestant Teachers, the Hurley family of Kilmeen are allegedly descendants of the Hurleys who built Ballinacarriga Castle near Dunmanway.  Looking at some of the other names it may be that  lines of hedge school masters converted.  It may be because these teacher were known for their mercurial temper and may have fallen out with Parish Priests.

Teachers, West Cork from 1660 and some from Report on Popery 1731
