The link to member "john conner" under the County Louth delegation, links to a modern day actor, who I'm pretty sure wasn't alive in the 1600's. I would edit this out my self but I'm not sure how to do it.--FrankJL 04:37, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Sir William Hurley/Hurly

On this page, Sir William Hurley is the name given but on the Kilmallock (Parliament of Ireland constituency) page, it is Sir William Hurly. Without the e in Hurley. Which is correct. I know on personal experience that Hurley is spelt Hurley. However, there is also this Hurly Baronets so maybe it should be changed to Hurly? Anyone with any idea which is correct?

Disam

Lots of work needed. A pity as someone has worked hard on this already.86.42.219.222 (talk) 12:33, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

I hadn't noticed but you are very right. I did notice that there was two James Fitzgerald's on it though althought hte other is from Inistioge (Parliament of Ireland constituency) and seems it should be James Bolger. I'm not sure. I don't know any way near enough to contemplate changing this page. Phil Nolte (talk) 19:24, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

Name

On reading Davis's 1843 essay here, the UCC version, it's clear that Davis didn't coin the term, but Gavan Duffy did in 1893.Red Hurley (talk) 08:43, 14 July 2011 (UTC)

We shouldn't read beyond what was discussed

For example, I'll take the following section:

• "Land Settlement; despite opposition in the Lords from Protestants, and the small number of Catholics who had purchased land since 1660, Parliament refused to approve taxes until James agreed to repeal the 1652 Cromwellian Settlement, and 1662 Act. However, it failed to address compensation for estates confiscated prior to 1641, many held by Gaelic landowners, particularly those lost after Tyrone's Rebellion in 1603."

This pre-1641 aspect is totally irrelevant as it wasn't on the agenda in 1689. If it had been, and had been approved or voted down by 60-40, that would be notable enough to be included. But it wasn't discussed, so this should be edited out. Just like they didn't propose opening a fairground in Tullamore.78.17.24.48 (talk) 09:44, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
