"At Mount Bayly, county Clare, Henry Bayly, Esq., a gentleman highly esteemed."

Thanks for this, Sheila. Now I know that Henry Thomas Baylee, who died 1850, likely had a son Henry, and it could have been the son Henry who found that his father had expired, as reported 1850 by newspapers. That son Henry would have been the brother of John Baylee who married 1867 Margaret Donnellan of Clashduff, near Kilkishen. I am slowly piecing together that Baylee family, who were fairly new to the area, of a lineage very well known in Co. Limerick. They were gentry but not high enough on the social ladder to merit a published pedigree. The newspapers followed them to some degree. These few words have significance.

Hi Sharon

Glad the few words are useful for your research. I notice that the 1836 list of Cess-payers, published in the Clare Journal in Spring 1836, includes Henry T. Baily, Mount Baily, Lower Tulla.
And - though you are probably already well aware of it - the landed estates site gives some information: http://landedestates.nuigalway.ie/Lande ... sp?id=2026
