COLONEL ROBERTSON'S FUND COUNTY DONEGAL
WikipediaColonel Robertson (c. 1737–c. 1791) was the son of a clergyman based in County Donegal, Ireland. In his will, dated 1790, he left a sum of money to the Diocese of Raphoe for use by schools. This fund aided the transition between the outdoor hedge school and the indoor-based education provided by the National School system. A number of schools in County Donegal were supported by the fund.
History
Bequest
Colonel Robertson's will, dated 25 December 1790, bequeathed a sum of money, out of the interest of which, £15 per annum was to be paid to each of the parishes in the diocese of Raphoe. During the 19th century, these funds were used for the support of a school-master and to instruct children of all religious denominations. The fund increased and enabled the trustees to grant £40 to each parish, for the erection of a school-house.
According to the Thirteenth Report of the Commissioners for enquiring into the State of all Schools on Public or Charitable Foundations in Ireland (March 1812):
"There is in the Diocese of Raphoe a very munificent Endowment for the education of the Children of the lower orders of the people, established under the last Will and Testament of the late Colonel Robertson, who in the year 1790, by his last Will and Testament dated 25 September in that year, did among other Bequests therein mentioned make the following:-
"I give and devise to the Parishes of the Diocese of Raphoe a sum of money, which by its interest at the rate of five per cent shall be found sufficient to produce fifteen pounds sterling annually to each Parish, for or towards establishing a School therein, and purchasing books, as well of entertainment as of instruction, in every Parish of said Diocese; and it is to be understood, that such as in said Parishes may not be of the Established Religion, are notwithstanding to share equally in this Legacy, which it is to be hoped will contribute to their conformation with the English church, by enlightening their understandings; and I do appoint the Lord Primate of Ireland, the lord Archbishop of Dublin, the Lord Bishop, Dean, Archdeacon and Rectors of said Diocese for the time being, to be Trustees herein for said Parishes, with a power to form such regulations in the founding and conducting of said Schools aforesaid as may seem best to them; and to dispose of, in the purchase of Lands of Inheritance in fee simple, or to put to interest on good security in Ireland, the aforesaid sum of money.
Robertson's fund supported approximately 100 schools in Donegal during the 19th century.
