- Gerald_O'Carroll abstract "Gerald O’Carroll is an Irish writer and historian. Born in Tralee, County Kerry in 1952 he is the second of ten children of James, an insurance broker, and his wife Elizabeth (nee Talbot). Gerald was educated at Catholic primary schools in Tralee and Castlemaine where the family moved to live about 1961. He attended the Catholic St. Brendan's College, Killarney, before going to University College Cork where he graduated BA in Hisory, English and Geography in 1972. He taught at second level under the Limerick City Vocational Education Committee, and for short spells on secondment in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe (1983-85) and Madrid, Spain (1991). Gerald O'Carroll retired from teaching in 1997 to concentrate on research and publication. All of his published works draw their inspiration from the history of the south west of Ireland, particularly County Kerry, with particular emphasis on the 12th century Norman settlement and the later Elizabethan and seventeenth-century settlements. These interests informed his first book, the writings of Mr Justice Robert Day, a Kerry native and Dublin based member of the court of King's Bench. Gerald O'Carroll next undertook the writing of a history of Tralee. Recognising the need for such a publication he made contact with Sir Anthony Denny, descended from the leading Elizabethan planter of the region, who placed important archive material at his disposal. The resulting book revealed the restrictive town charter of pre-democratic days but assessed the positive contributions of settler representatives, Blennerhassett, Rowan and Denny included. His book on the Geraldine earls of Desmond, published in 2013, was the culmination of over thirty years of interest in the subject. Like the previous books it drew its inspiration from the fact of historical continuity: despite war, including occasional massacre in Elizabethan and Cromwellian times, by the nineteenth century the blood of the Geraldine earls was running in the veins of some of the settler families who composed the regional elite. This awareness had been forgotten by historians working within the confines of recent nationalism. Gerald O'Carroll lives in Limerick.".
