Civil Survey Notes - Bauraglanna / Glenculloo

 



Bauraglanna

The townland of Bauraglanna makes up some of Glencollow or Glown. It goes by numerous different spellings / versions.

There are some possible connections between the 1600s records as follows:

Wm. Ryan mcOwny of Glancollow is recorded in the Civil Survey (CS). In the HMR 1665 there is a Derby McOwen. So a possible link here?

More definitely there is Wm. Mc Loghlen in the CS and in the Hearth Money Rolls (HMR) 1665 Wm. McMleaghten. So this person seems to have remained in the area during this period. I’m not sure if he is the surname McLoughlin (and variants) or a William son of Loughlin Ryan for example.

There is also a Teige McShane in the CS, he could possibly be the Teige Ryan in the HMR 1665.

In the CS there is a Edd. McConnor and in the HMR 1665 a Rory McConnor. Again not conclusive but a possible link.

Intriguingly in 1659 in Simingtons Transplantation to Connacht pg 51 -  Ryan, John; of Glan in Tipperary is recorded as being due to receive 1440 Acres in two locations, one in the parish of Killaloe (Lr) and one in Killuran (Lr) in the Barony of Tulla.

In the HMR 1665 there is a John Ryan listed here in Glencollon.

The is no way of knowing if these are the same people but it is interesting none the less.

Unfortunately nothing 100% conclusive. We still have Ryans in this townland in the 1911 census. Although it is unlikely at this remove to be able to link them back to William McOwny Ryan (Gent) or others in the area from 1654-56. Any descendants would definitely be interesting to DNA test.
