The Dublin Congregation has a remarkable history and can trace its lineage back through some of the key events in Irish and English history. The radical dissenting tradition was the driving force behind some of the major events in history including Cromwell’s Commonwealth, the Enlightenment and the 1798 Rebellion and the Dublin Congregation and Ministers were often close to the centre of events. We have had the benefit of some very interesting articles and addresses by members of the Congregation on various elements of Dublin Unitarian history but there is still a lot more to be uncovered and committed to record.
I am hoping to set up a History Club (working title) with a view to gathering existing history and uncovering more, and would be delighted to see the talents of our members used to make our history more widely available.
