Administrative history

Ireland’s Eye was used by seasonal fishermen throughout the nineteenth century and by 1836 had a resident population of 32 people. The first school opened in 1854. St. George’s Church was built by 1888, and a congregation of over 80 people attended regular church services, which were conducted by a lay reader. A new church was built in 1927. Ireland’s Eye was resettled under the provincial government program of the 1960s. The Rector of the Parish of Trinity offered the farewell service and official closing of the church on the last Sunday in August, 1965.

Custodial history

Since the resettlement of the community the records have been kept at the rectory of the parish of Trinity.

Scope and content

The fonds consists of Vestry Registers for 1888-1965; minutes of meetings of congregation for 1934-1965; account books, 1926-1965; and accounts of collections and offerings, 1952-1964.
