Re: Information is wanted of Thomas McNamara, of Glandree,
In my post above I may have given the impression that I thought the Molonys of Cragg were planters, and, if so, I should say that the Molonys of Cragg were there from the early 17th century, if not longer. This is mentioned in the entry in the Landed Estates website: https://landedestates.ie/propert...

Re: Information is wanted of Thomas McNamara, of Glandree,
Hi Jimbo Thank you once again. It was interesting to read about the Molonys and Cragg House, and about marriages between Protestant and Catholics, and about the Cannys - also Malachy Kelly, the Steward, and Patrick Cusack. The mention of the trees still standing on what was once the Cragg house aven...

Re: Information is wanted of Thomas McNamara, of Glandree,
In the piece on Tulla (above), we are told “In 1829 a new Catholic Church was opened”. But where was the old church and what was it like? I think there must have been at least one church in the parish, and would like to know a little about it. In 1812 there were two Catholic churches in the parish o...

Re: Information is wanted of Thomas McNamara, of Glandree,
The Irish Church Act 1869, which disestablished the Church of Ireland, did not mean that Roman Catholic chapels began to be called churches; that did not happen until about 1907. The pre-printed forms issued to priests began with the words “Marriage solemnized at the Roman Catholic Chapel of …”, but...

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...
