Notes On This Transcription

All details in this document were transcribed exactly as they were written in the original School Registers. Spelling mistakes/variations have not been corrected.

Names are transcribed exactly as they were originally written. It is notable that the spelling of some names changed over time. Some Christian names which were abbreviated in the original handwritten registers have NOT been expanded, e.g. Mgt, Thos etc.

Ages were sometimes recorded in years and months. In this transcription an age of 6.8 means 6 years and 8 months.

Place names are also transcribed as originally written. For example, Gillstown was sometimes spelled with one letter L. The Fair Green is sometimes referred to as "Green" or "The Green", and modern day Connaught Street is universally called "Connor Street".

Register reference numbers for each pupil did not always follow in sequence. Again, no attempt has been made to correct numbers which are out of sequence.

The original School Registers are held by The National Archives of Ireland and are available for public viewing. The Archive reference number is 2000/17, Box 1 to 21.

Prior to 1887 this school was known as Athboy Boys Infant National School. With the opening of the new school building on Main Street in 1887 the school became known as St James Boys Infant National School. The School Register continued in an unbroken sequence from the old school to the new school.
