It was established on 31 July 1894 by Douglas Hyde, with the aid of others including Stiophán Bairéad. The League continued on the work of the Gaelic Union, published ""An Claidheamh Soluis as its newspaper, organising language classes and feiseanna."
Correspondence with various people involved with Connradh na Gaeilge, including leading members, branch secretaries and treasurers, as well as Aran Islanders Stiophan was friendly with.
Correspondence between Seosamh Laoide and Stiophán Bairéad. Joseph Henry Lloyd was born in Ranelagh in 1865, was editor of Irishleabhar na Gaeilge from 1891 to 1902, when he went on to take charge of the Gaelic League's publication programme. He was also co-treasurer of Connradh in the early years with Stiophán. Effectively made redundant from the League in 1916, he moved to London working for a while, before returning to Dublin in 1920.
Letter from Seosamh Laoide, 8 gCuilbhealach Avenue, Waterloo, Straigh Thuaidh, to Stiophán Bairéad, 24 Ait Alberd, mBaile Atha Cliath, asking if they could meet up the following Friday, saying that he would have a lot of questions for him [in Irish].
Letter from J.H. Lloyd, 8 Waterloo Avenue (on Connradh na Gaedhilge notepaper), to Stephen Barrett, forwarding a memorandum from Mr. McNeill on the Aran Islands. He says that Stephen should have no difficulties as he has proper Connacht pronunciation. He asks him to take notes on the phrases he hears as the idiom is different from the Irish to the English. He also asks him to take a note of songs. "You would also be helping to rescue Irish oral literature".
Letter from Seosamh Laoide to [Stephen Barrett] giving accounts of branch meetings in "Learn Dunain", Crossmaglen, to more general organisation among "Muintir Fhearmhaighe" (Fermanagh) [in Irish].
