Limerick in 1723. She however died before 1731 when George re-married. Being dead and having died without issue she was not mentioned in William Waller’s will. Magazine of Magazines 22 March 1751. Richard Waller, the younger, married Miss Brasier, daughter of Col. Kilner Brasier Magazine of Magazines 13 Nov 1752. Robert Coppinger married Jane Waller, daughter of Richard of Cully. Magazine of Magazines 25 Oct 1758. Death of Richard Waller of Cully, Co. Tipperary. Magazine of Magazines 1 Nov 1759. Birth. The wife of Richard Waller, a son. (Anne Brazier). Is this where the date of 1758 in the next line comes from? Did someone read the above entry and subtract a year from it to calculate the year of marriage? The above entry gives the correct marriage date as 1752. “Richard married Anne Brazier in 1758.” William Waller of no known address married Arabella Vokes in March 1765. 2 Samuel Waller, above, was born in 1705 and married Anne Jocelyn on the 20 June 1730. He died on the 1 May 1762. They lived in Newport House in Newport, Co. Tipperary. Their eldest son Robert was created a Baronet.

A later Richard Waller married Anne Brazier, daughter of Kilner Brazier. This 2nd Richard had a grandson called Samuel. Betham’s Will Abstracts. G O 252. p 124. This is almost the same tree as G O 223. P. 8 but does have some discrepancies and highlights the fact that even Betham, the Chief Herald must have had difficulty reading 1700’s handwriting.

G O 252. p 339. George Waller = Miss Waller = Mr Vincent Limerick The will below identifies this Burgess man as Alderman Arthur W. 16/4/1793 Vincent. He married Blanche Pr. 16/6/1796. Waller. Robert William Richard John = Natural sons Arthur Vincent The Will mentions Eaton Maunsell as nephew to George. This has to be George, the son of William and Blanche Waller, nee Weekes above. George was Sheriff of Limerick City in 1740 and voted in the Election in 1760. In spite of his life style his mother Blanche did not cut him out of her will. George was the 1740 Sheriff of Limerick City and would have been a Freeman before that date. He lived to the early 1790’s. Irish Ancestor. Vol III. No 1. 1971. p 99. The Will of Blanche Waller, widow of William Waller of Cully, Co. Tipperary, dated 31 Oct 1754, proved 12 June 1755. “The settlement entered into on the intermarriage of my son Edward Waller that £1000 should be paid one month after my decease to Richard Waller of Cully and Thomas Broughton of Dublin, Merchant. £6 per annum for life to my daughter Dorothy Maunsell, wife of Thomas Maunsell and after her death to her daughter, my grand daughter Blanche Maunsell. My other grand- children, the sisters of the said Blanche Maunsell. To my grandson William Waller, son of Richard Waller one of my middle sized silver salvers. To my grandson John Vincent, son of Alderman Arthur Vincent, my silver coffeepot. To my grandson Robert Waller, son of Samuel Waller, another of my middle sized silver salvers. To my grand daughter Blanche Waller, daughter of Edward Waller, one pair of plate candlesticks. To the poor of the parish of Killinerath £5. Trustees: Edward Taylor of Limerick and Richard Maunsell the younger of Limerick. Residue of Estate to my son George Waller, merchant. Witnesses: - George Gough, Richard Waller and Meto Smith. Codicil, dated 16 Dec 1754. To my grand daughter Ann Taylor all my wearing linnen and other wearing apparel with my spinet, the picture of Blanche Maunsell and one of my chests of drawers where Blanch keeps her clothes. The said Ann Taylor to look after Blanche Maunsell until she marries. 4 From the above Will we can construct a partial family tree thus: - William Waller = Blanche Waller [nee Weekes] D. 1755 Richard Edward Dorothy = Thomas ? = Arthur Samuel ? = Edward George of Cully Maunsell Vincent Taylor William Blanche Blanche John Robert Ann Waller Maunsell The insertion of Edward Taylor as the father of Ann Taylor cannot be substantiated. But his appointment as one of the Trustees of the Will suggest a close link to the Waller family. The fact that Blanche Maunsell kept her clothes at her granny’s house and that her granny saw fit to appoint Ann Taylor to “look after” Blanche Maunsell would indicate that Blanche was in 1755 living without her parents. The Waterford Herald, Tuesday 23 Aug 1791, Died Thursday in Dominick Street, Limerick, Miss Waller, eldest daughter of Edward Waller There were two branches of the Waller family living in the Newport area.

  • Din Kennedy, Coolcroo, Two Mile Borris
    Din Kennedy by Michael O’Dwyer Din Kennedy was born on 26 June 1913 at Coolcroo, Two-Mile-Borris, County Tipperary. He was the fourth son of Con Kennedy, a farmer, and Mary Anne Kennedy (née Campion). His parents got married in Gortnahoe church on 21 February 1909. On the Kennedy family in Jimmy Fogarty’s excellent book on Moycarkey Coolcroo Athletic Club, A Tipperary athletic club: 70 years of athletics in a County Tipperary parish, he started with, ‘In 1936, the Kennedy family, together with their close neighbours, the Healys, became the founding members of Coolcroo Athletic Club. All the male members of this family were known throughout the county as great hurlers and athletes, having captured All-Ireland medals in both disciplines. In fact, their Uncle Tom Kennedy was a member of the historic Two-Mile-Borris team, County Tipperary, Munster and All-Ireland Hurling Champions of 1900.’ When Coolcroo won the Irish junior cross-country title in 1937 for the first time one of the team’s six scorers was Din’s brother Tom Kennedy (1912–1962). Two years later, in 1939, when Coolcroo regained the Irish junior cross-country title Din Kennedy was a scoring member, and he was also a scoring member when Coolcroo won the Irish junior cross-country title in 1948. His best year though was in 1946 when he was a scoring member of the Tipperary junior cross-country team that won the Irish inter-county title that year and the following month he was a scoring member of the Tipperary senior cross-country team that won the Irish inter-county title.

  • History of Borrisokane ,Co.Tipperary
    History of Borrisokane ,Co.Tipperary. ‘Introduction’ What better way to begin an account of a Tipperary town than by referring to the following words of a poem called ‘Tipperary‘.In these lines, the poet ‘ Eva of the Nation‘ who was one of the Kellys of Killeen, Portumna,wrote: ‘O come for a while among us,and give us a friendly hand, And you‘ll see that old Tipperary is a loving and gladsome land; From Upper to Lower Ormond bright welcome and smiles will spring, On the plains of Tipperary,the stranger is like a king?‘ Yes, I think the words ring true,I`m sure, for us and about us,natives of this part of Irish soil?? It is about one particular spot ‘on the plains of Tipperary‘ that I wish to write, namely my home parish of Borrisokane?? . So I turn again to verse, which so often suggests things that mere prose cannot? In a book of poetry, ‘The Spirit of Tipperary‘ published many years ago by the Nenagh Guardian,we find a poem by Dermot F ?Gleeson who for many years was District Justice in Nenagh.He wrote under the pen-name ‘Mac Liag‘ . He writes as if from the top of Lisgorrif Hill looking down on the broad expanse of the two Ormonds with Lough Derg bordering them to the left? .The poem is simply called, ‘The place where I was born’ ‘O’er hill and mountain, vale and town, My gaze now wanders up and down, Anon my heart is filled with pride, Anon with memory’s gentler tide ‘ Of sorrow, until through them all The twilight whispers softly call From upland green and golden corn “It is the place where you were born”.

I had just finished my school-going days and had commenced to assist my father in his hardware business in my native town of Carrick-on-Suir. There was then no unit of the Irish Volunteers in Carrick-on-Suir.. There were, however, in the town a. few nationally minded people, such as Dr. Murphy, Maurice Hickey and some members of the Dowley families, who had broken away from the Redmond ite Party and the Irish National Volunteers when the split took place in that body a few years before, but, as far as I am no effort was made to establish an aware, Irish Volun6eer company. On the other hand, Carrick-on-Suir held amongst the towns of Ireland the unenviable distinction of, in proportion to its population, giving the second highest percentage of recruits to the British Army.

  • The O'keeffes of Glenough by Robert O'keeffe Nora O'keeffe Was Born In
    The O’Keeffes of Glenough by Robert O’Keeffe Nora O’Keeffe was born in Glenough, Rossmore Co. Tipperary in 1885, and was one of 12 children. The family were steeped in the nationalist tradition and her father, Dan, was a Nationalist Justice of Peace and a respected nationalist figure locally. There are uncorroborated stories of involvement in the Fenian outbreak of 1867 (Fr Denis Matthew O’Keeffe’s history). Nora emigrated to the US in 1909 and worked as a typist/stenographer. She appears to have returned to Ireland in 1918/9 along with her brother Patrick. During her time in the US she appears to have met Margaret Skinnider with whom it is thought she had a life long same sex relationship. (McAuliffe) She became active with Cumann na mBan and was among those listed in Bureau of Military History statements as having dispersed the gelignite from the Sologheadbeg ambush across the Brigade area. The younger members of the family seem to have immersed themselves in the national struggle at this time. This was probably due in no small part to the presence in the locality of staunch Republicans such as Fr Matt Ryan of Knockavilla, Eamonn O’Duibhir of Ballagh and the Irish teacher, Padraig Breathnach. The house at Glenough was used as a safe house and also played host to brigade meetings. The “Big Four” of Robinson, Breen, Treacy and Hogan were regular visitors as was Ernie O’Malley. O’Malley mentions the family in his autobiography “On another man’s wound” and also in his book “Raids and Rallies”.
