Gubbins Family Notes 1 Gubbins family Notes. By Noel Murphy According to the Rev George Gough Gubbins who wrote the “Memoirs of the Gubbins Family” and published it in 1891, the first Gubbins to appear in Ireland was a certain Capt. Gubbins, a Cromwellian officer who married a Miss Carpenter. Captain Gubbins got land near Bruree but he and his wife returned to England leaving his Estate to his two sons, Joseph and James. Joseph got Lackanagrour, Kilbreedy, Dromacommer and Cloonbrien. James got the lands and castle of Knocklong. Joseph leased the lands of Clogher which lay nearby, from John Ormsby of Athlacca and lived out his adult life there with his wife and family of two sons and four daughters. (Memorial 64000 names five sons and two daughters). I have given the modern spelling of these five Townlands and they all lie in a semi-circle West, North and East of Bruree, Co. Limerick. Knocklong and Kilfrush lie 15 Kilometres East of Bruree with Hospital/Kenmare Castle directly North of Kilfrush. Joseph’s first wife was Margaret Croker but she died early in their marriage. Joseph married again to Catherine Blakeney. The Gubbins family, named in G O 253 (see page 2) fit the family of Joseph of Clogher above, with James omitted because he had the Knocklong Estate. Joseph from G O 253, could be the Joseph junior who was given Kilbreedy Townland by his father, if so then his wife was Martha Collis. Joseph of Kilbreedy and Martha, his wife, are both named in the Blennerhassett Pedigrees written by Black Jack Blennerhassett in 1733, no children were mentioned so they were probably newlyweds. It was the Knocklong family who acquired Kilfrush and continued the Gubbins line down to the 20th century. From Kilfrush they moved into Maidstown and then into Hospital/Kenmare Castle. James, his son James and his son Joseph stayed for about 50 years in Maidstown before Joseph’s son George moved to Newlawn and renamed it by its old name, Uregare House. In 1768 Gubbins of Maidstown held the lease for Lackanagrour, one of the earliest Townlands held by the Gubbins. It should be pointed out that all Lands belonged to the Crown and that the King or Queen of England granted large tracts of lands to their favourites and supporters in return for military service. This Military service was translated into cash payments during times of peace. The Dukes and Earls likewise granted smaller portions of their lands to their relatives and followers who in turn leased or rented smaller pieces of land to farmers and cottiers. It is wrong to speak or write of families “Owning” land when they only held it by lease from some other bigger family who it turn held it from the Crown. Memorials of the Dead. Vol 7. P. 397. Tombstone on the lands of Kilfrush Demesne. Here Lieth the body of James Gubbins who departed this life xber the 26, 1738 aged 33 years. The Stone was erected by his daughter Catherine. (xber stands for October, the tenth month. Therefore James was born circa 1705 and probably married circa 1726. Catherine would have been aged about 11 years old when James died so the Tombstone was erected years after his death). 2 The Kenmare Mss. P 173 and 174. The Tythe account book for the year 1722 lists James Gobbons (sic) paying tythes in the three Parishs of Kilfrush, Doon & Long and Knocklong. The 1728 tythes were paid by Joseph Gubbins in the parish of Kilfrush while Mr William Gubbins paid tythes in the parish of Doon & Long. Betham’s Will Abstracts. G O 253. P 12. Anne Webb nee Gubbins. William Webb = Ann Gubbins Susanna Joseph ? Catherine Limerick W. 13 June 1748 = = P. 3 June 1749 Peter Sargent Mr Bennet (M. 1731) Note: - Betham left a question mark against the wife of Peter Sargent but her name was Elizabeth Gubbins. Peter Sargent was born in 1711 and married Elizabeth in 1731. He was Mayor of Limerick in 1753 and died in 1785. (See Sargent file). The Webb family lived in Maidstown Castle in the early 1700’s but sold it to the Gubbins family around 1750. Joseph Gubbins sold the lease to James Creed in 1793. From Maidstown the Gubbins moved to Newlawn, also known as Uregare House. I would surmise that the Catherine who married Mr Bennet was a generation younger than the Catherine who erected the memorial to her father James. Bethams Will Abstracts. G O 234. P 235.

(Addissional information is added to Betham’s abstracts in red). Nick Reddan’s Registry of Deeds Index Project. Memorial 3390, dated 16 Aug 1712 and Memorial 24852, dated 14 Feb 1717, Give the following: - James Gubbins = Elizabeth. James already a father of Joseph in 1712. Knocklong. Must be the first James of Knocklong. Joseph William Eldest 2nd son ============= Memorial 64000 Dated 3 Nov 1737 Joseph Gubbins = Catherine Gubbins (Nee Blakeney, 2nd wife). First Joseph of of Cloher. Decd. Cloher. James Lancelot George Margaret Anne William Blakeney Joseph (1709-1784) (Eldest). Kilbreedy. In Joseph Gubbins Will, dated 6 Jan 1732, he left all to his wife and children. (The succession to the Lands of Clogher and the Townlands around Bruree passed through Lancelot and his sons by Mabella Norcott). ============= Memorial 111169, dated 26 July 1753. This tells us that Lancelot Gubbins (1709 – 1784) was married to Marbella Norcott, the daughter of William Norcott and that she had sisters called Lucia and Dorcas. ============= Memorial 121979, dated 1 July 1756. This names Joseph Gubbins and his eldest son Joseph junior. Senior had settled earlier, the lands of Kilbride/Kilbridy/Kilbreedy on junior with remainder to issue by Martha Collin, [Recte Collis], and then to George Gubbins and his heirs. (George was deceased by 1756 leaving only three daughters, Elizabeth, Annabella and Catherine. Elizabeth had married the Rev Ephrain Monsell of Mountmellick, Co. Clare. In the List of Freeholders for 1768 and 1776 The Rev Ephraim Monsell is shown holding land in Kilbreedy Townland, he was living there in 1768 but was living in Limerick in 1776. He was born in 1724 and died on the 10/04/1798. So Elizabeth inherited her share of Kilbreedy as Joseph senior intended in Memorial 121979). ============= Memorial 171077, dated 24 March 1767. 4 This records the Marriage Settlement between Joseph Gubbins of Kilfrush and Mary, the daughter of George Stamer of Carnelly. (Carnelly is in Co. Clare). (These two were the parents of George Stamer Gubbins, Born 14/01/1769, married 05/10/1790, Died 11/04/1797. He married Anne Russell who was born 21/12/1770). ============= Memorial 278153, Marriage Settlement, dated 27 August 1790. From this Marriage settlement for the marriage of Elizabeth Ann Carr, daughter of the Rev Ralph Carr of Bath and step daughter of Mary Stamer his third wife, to Chidley Coote of Ash Hill, Kilmallock but then of Bath. (We note the presence of George Stamer Gubbins the son and heir of Joseph Gubbins, deceased, the former husband of Mary Stamer. He was probably there to prevent the transfer of any of the jointure of Mary Stamer to Elizabeth Ann in the settlement. Mary’s Jointure would revert to George Stamer Gubbins when Mary died and was not Mary’s or her husband’s to give away as part of the dowry of Elizabeth Ann). (Ralph Carr’s second wife died on the 09/09/1786 so his marriage to Mary Stamer was after that date but before 1790. Mary Stamer eventually died in 1813. Ralph Carr died in 1810, aged 73). ============= Memorial 303015, dated 2 Nov 1793. This deed shows Joseph Gubbins of Maidstown selling the lease of Maidstown and other lands to James Creed in 1793. (See Creed file where James Creed and his son were living in Maidstown in 1803). ============= “Descent and Alliances of Croslegh, Crossie or Crossley of Scaitcliffe”. 1904. Web site. Capt John Minnit of Knygh Castle married Mary Gubbins in 1713. She was the daughter of Joseph Gubbins of Kilfrush who died in January 1737 and Grand-daughter of Joseph Gubbins of Knocklong. ============= Limerick Archives. Deed number D0321. Dated 1721. This Indenture is a Marriage Settlement for a wedding that occurred in 1720. A sum of £500 was involved. This must be the Bride’s dowry.

  • The List of Church of Ireland Parish Registers
    THE LIST of CHURCH OF IRELAND PARISH REGISTERS A Colour-coded Resource Accounting For What Survives; Where It Is; & With Additional Information of Copies, Transcripts and Online Indexes SEPTEMBER 2021 The List of Parish Registers The List of Church of Ireland Parish Registers was originally compiled in-house for the Public Record Office of Ireland (PROI), now the National Archives of Ireland (NAI), by Miss Margaret Griffith (1911-2001) Deputy Keeper of the PROI during the 1950s. Griffith’s original list (which was titled the Table of Parochial Records and Copies) was based on inventories returned by the parochial officers about the year 1875/6, and thereafter corrected in the light of subsequent events - most particularly the tragic destruction of the PROI in 1922 when over 500 collections were destroyed. A table showing the position before 1922 had been published in July 1891 as an appendix to the 23rd Report of the Deputy Keeper of the Public Records Office of Ireland. In the light of the 1922 fire, the list changed dramatically – the large numbers of collections underlined indicated that they had been destroyed by fire in 1922. The List has been updated regularly since 1984, when PROI agreed that the RCB Library should be the place of deposit for Church of Ireland registers. Under the tenure of Dr Raymond Refaussé, the Church’s first professional archivist, the work of gathering in registers and other local records from local custody was carried out in earnest and today the RCB Library’s parish collections number 1,114. The Library is also responsible for the care of registers that remain in local custody, although until they are transferred it is difficult to ascertain exactly what dates are covered.

  • Clare County Library
    http://www.clarelibrary.ie/eolas/coclare/songs/cmc/agrarian_strife.htm Clare County Library Songs of Agrarian Strife by Pat Feeley Songs of strife are important sociological and historical documents. Most of them were written close to the event which they describe. Indeed, some contain information not to be found in the official records or newspapers of the time. Although many of these ballads, which were essentially journalistic by nature, were factually accurate, it is also important to remember that they reflected the feelings not only of the ballad-maker but of sizeable sections of the ordinary people. It was the character of these songs to reflect popular thinking and feeling. If the message was unpopular people would not want to buy the ballad and sing it. So the songs give us the collective emotions of the people on the actual events outlined in the street ballads. Consequently the role of the ballad maker in acting as a mirror of popular opinion could subvert his role as journalist and make him distort the facts of the situation in order, as we shall see later, to make his products attractive to his purchasers. In relation to this type of street literature, it should also be borne in mind that although one could be prosecuted for the singing of seditious songs from Elizabethan times, until the foundation of the Land League in 1879, ballad-singing was one of the few non-violent forms of protest available to the peasantry on questions affecting them. Making and singing such songs was also a way of indicating support from those who themselves would not resort to acts of violence.

FormB.S.M.2 STATEMENT BY MRS. BRIDGET RYAN Ballynonty, Thurles, Co Tipperary After a lapse of so many years it is now rather difficult to recall how I first became associated with the national movement during the years from 1916 to 1921, but certainly after the Rising of 1916, my political sympathies were whole-heartedly with the Irish Volunteers and with Sinn Fein. At the time, I held a clerical position in the business establish-ment of Mr. Bernard Fitzpatrick, Liberty Square, Thurles, and amongst Mr. Fitzpatrick's other employees was a Mr. John McCormack, who is now in the U.S.A. and who later became quartermaster of the 2nd or Mid-Tipperary Brigade. Miss Maura Comerford of Dublin came to Thurles in 1918 to organise Cumann na mBan in the area. I gave her what help and assistance I could and I became a member of the local branch of that organisation. Early in 1918, John McCormack told me that I had been appointed dispatch centre in Thurles and from then onwards I received a steady stream of dispatches from G.H.Q. for distribution to Volunteer officers in various places. The dispatches came to me under cover through the post.

  • Placenames of the Down Survey of Co
    Placenames of the Down Survey of Co. Limerick. Compiled by Brian Hodkinson, Limerick Museum, June 2013. http://downsurvey.tcd.ie/down-survey-maps.php#c=Limerick&indexOfObjectValue=- 1&indexOfObjectValueSubstring=-1 The following is a list of the placenames of the Down Survey, taken for the most part from the parish maps. It is not an exhaustive list of every occurrence of a particular spelling. The list was compiled from the TCD website in the order presented there, i.e. by Barony then by parish within the Barony, Only the first noted occurrence of a spelling of a name is given and it is possible several other maps contain the same spelling. Thus the first entry might be peripheral, e.g. the name of the adjoining parish and more detail is available on another map. Where there are numbers on parcels of land, rather than names on the map, the associated terrier has been mined for the name. It is quite possible, however, that there are other variant spellings of names on the map within the terriers. For some Baronies there are no parish maps, so names are taken from the Barony map. The list was made for my own research purposes and is made available with that understanding. It is probably in almost alphabetical order.

  • The Cromwellian Settlement of Limerick
    THE CROMWELLIAN SETTLEMENT OF THE COUNTY OF LIMERICK. P BY JAMES GRENE BARRY, Y.R.S.A.I. Some preliminary remarks are necessary to lead up to my subject, and to explain how the Crornwellian settlement came about.. In a previous paper I showed the results of the Desmond con- fiscations, and the consequent settlement of this county under Queen Elizabeth. After the Flight of the Earls in 1607, English and Scotch " Undertakers," as they were called, got grants to the extent of three million acres in the six escheated Ulster counties (I). In these grants, however, only the arable Iand is mentioned or measured, amounting to 511,467 acres. The mountains, bogs, and uncultivated lands were treated as " waste land " ; but, in course of time, we find this "waste land " was taken possession of by the grantees. The native Irish were restored," as it is called, to about 75,000 acres of arable land, and, we may assume, also acquired a due proportion of L' waste land." It must be remembered that this Ulster Settlement under James I. was unlike the Munster Settlement of his predecessors, as - there had been no general rising or overt act of treason committed by the old proprietors. After the defeat of the Irish at the battle of Kinsale, in 1603, O'Neill, Earl of Tyrone, had made his submission and was graciously received into favour by King James in bndon. Hugh OPDonnellwas, on his submission, created Earl of Tyrconnell. P- - (I) The six counties were Armagh, Tyrone, Coleraine (now Derry), Donegal, Fermanagh, and Cavan.

Although the revolutionary activity was primarily dedicated to political purposes, Ireland underwent considerable social turmoil at that time, in both industrial and agrarian fields. But while the socioeconomic dimension of the Irish revolution has received academic recognition for several decades, many historians have nonetheless tended to downplay its historical significance. This not least because it did not give rise to any radical social change in the new Irish Free State, despite the emergence of an alternative organizational method, named “soviet” after the council movement that sprang up in the 1917 Russian Revolution.
