Re: Information is wanted of Thomas McNamara, of Glandree,

This report, in the Clare Champion of 12 Jan 2022, on a new book, “By Strangers Mourned, The Historic Burials at Tulla Church of Ireland", by David Brady-Browne, gives some information on the old Protestant Church in Tulla: https://clarechampion.ie/new-book-highlights-history-of-tulla-cofi-cemetery/...

Re: Information is wanted of Thomas McNamara, of Glandree,

Hi Sharon There is a nice photo of the ruins of the old Protestant Church in this piece on Tulla: https://www.clarelibrary.ie/eolas/coclare/places/tulla_history.htm Sheila P.S. The 1847 map of Tulla, included among these maps, shows the old church (in ruins) on the right, and the new church on the l...

Re: Information is wanted of Thomas McNamara, of Glandree,

Hi Jimbo That is a very interesting post – I cannot but marvel at the amount of research done by you. Thanks for that satisfactory explanation re Kilkishen Fever Hospital. I deleted that link to facebook, by the way. The record of the death of John McNamara, who died in 1870 aged 92, is not for any ...

Re: Information is wanted of Thomas McNamara, of Glandree,

Hi Jimbo

I gather from a facebook message of congratulations to Cathal O’Hagan that there was a Fever Hospital in Kilkishen. It’s possible that it served part of Tulla parish too.

Re: Quinlivan of Ballyroughan

Hi Sharon, Augustine Quinlivan was a son of James Quinlivan and Catherine Ryan, Ballyroughan. He was baptised on 4 May 1863, the eldest of the 13 children born before 1881 - there were more births after that date*. I think it was his aunt who was Sr Mary Augustine of the Ennis convent and that he wa...

Re: Information is wanted of Thomas McNamara, of Glandree,

Hi Jimbo That is a wonderful posting. You have done great research on Garruragh House. You have done so much work on the Tulla area in general, you have arrived at a stage where the people appearing in the story are people you have encountered before. It is strange to think that the ruins of the nea...

Re: Quinlivan of Ballyroughan

Hi Sharon,
Thank you for adding that helpful information to my transcription of the will. “Distress” was just a guess – also “horse” (purchased at Doctor Cavanagh’s sale), plus some other words.

Re: Quinlivan of Ballyroughan

I looked for “Quinlivan” among the Wills in the Will Registers 1858-1900 (National Archives): http://census.nationalarchives.ie/search/wr/home.jsp, and noted that Rossroe, in the parish of Kilmurry Negaul, is mistranscribed as “Rossie”. I don’t know if Michael Quinlivan, the “Gentleman Farmer” who l...

Re: Information is wanted of Thomas McNamara, of Glandree,

I think now that Henry Bolton’s stay in Garruragh was brief. I think he leased Garruragh House for a short while in the 1840s. When I looked again at the Field Books for Garruragh (not the House Book), I saw that he is occupying the larger house of the two mentioned, while William Malony is occupyin...

Re: Information is wanted of Thomas McNamara, of Glandree,

Hi Jimbo, Thank you for all of that very interesting post. Your purchase of Ignatius Murphy’s History of the Diocese of Killaloe is yielding dividends. It looks like Rev Mr. Quinlivan got too much mixed up in stuff. His friends were fair weather friends and his funeral, it seems, was not the usual s...

Re: Information is wanted of Thomas McNamara, of Glandree,

Hi Jimbo Well, I certainly did not expect that confirmation that Rev. Mr. Quinlivan was Patrick Quinlivan. Good work! He may not have been the Rev. Patrick Quinlivan, who testified that he was Parish Priest in Doonass in 1822 and present at the marriage of Thomas Browne and Catherine O’Callaghan, bu...

Hi Sharon and Jimbo This thread is flying on so quickly! I wanted to reply to Sharon, but, by the time I'd composed my reply, there was more from you, Jimbo. I wanted to read your latest more carefully, and reply tomorrow, but I know that the question re the identity of Rev. Mr. Quinlivan will be "h...
