There are many other newspaper references to the administration of this estate in 1907 and 1908, and the case was mentioned in the House of Commons in London in 1910 and in the Irish Reports in 1911.The plaintiff, Elizabeth Foley Eager was a second cousin of Thomas Foley Brew, who died intestate on 1st July, 1907, at Ennistymon, County Clare, and the defendants are Naome [sic, recte Nannie] O'Halloran, John F. Culllinan, Marion B. Lynch, widow of one of the next-of-kin, and others. On 24th July, plaintiff obtained letters of administration of the deceased's estate, but after the order was made it was discovered that Marion B. Lynch, a first cousin, was living, and her name was added to the suit. The deceased became insane some months before his death, and it appears that various parties without any right entered on portion of the lands belonging to him ... £ 100 which the deceased had lodged in the bank a short time before his death, as alleged, in the joint names of himself and Miss Fitzgerald, one of the defendants.
Hopefully some papers (even a pedigree affidavit) may have survived the 1922 conflagration in the Four Courts and will be available in the National Archives of Ireland.
The administratrix Mrs Eagar (as her name is more often spelled) had a very long career as matron of Corofin Workhouse, a position that she held in 1862, 1893, 1901 and probably 1907 and 1908 (see comments on broken EPPI website). Her age at death implies that she was in her mid-70s at the time of the last two references.
She later followed her daughter to Belfast - see 1901 and 1911 censuses - and died there in 1917 - search PRONI Will Calendars.
Elizabeth Foley Taaffe married Thomas Robert Eagar in Kilrush on 12 July 1851, and should not be confused with the Elizabeth Foley who married James Eagar in Dublin in 1855 - see familysearch.org and irishgenealogy.ie.
I would welcome any further information on this family.
