Two of these are scheduled for transplantation according to Simington. Namely

John Ryan & Philip McMahon Ryan (called Phillip McMahony Ryan above).

John Ryan is scheduled to be transported to Feacle (Upper) or Tulla (Upr.) while Philip McMahon Ryan is scheduled to be transported to Feacle (Upper).

There are two John Ryans in the 1659 Penders Census but none in those parishes in Clare.

There are 18 Ryans recorded in the Griffiths Valuation for Tulla Parish in Clare.

There are 3 Ryans recorded in the Griffiths Valuation for Feacle Parish in Clare.

Firstly what happened to John Ryan and Phillipe McMahony Ryan, were they transplanted? At least for John Ryan, he may be one of the John Ryans recorded above still in Tipperary. Philip McMahony is no longer recorded but we do see some of his possible relatives in William McMahoony (Ryan most likely) and Teige McMahon (again Ryan most likely) in Drumbane.

 

In the Tithe Appointment Books there are still lots of Ryans in the townland.

Similarly in the Griffiths Valuation there are lots of Ryans.

 

And also in the 1901 & 1911 census.

So we can see that Drumbane and associated townlands were heavily Ryan populated. Unfortunately due to the sheer number of Ryans we can’t say much else with certainty.
