Civil Survey Notes - Youghalvillage

 

The following are recorded in the Civil Survey in this townland

Hugh Hogan of Youghill Gent

Thomas Hogan of Youghill Gent

Donogh O Hogan of Ardkelly

Teige O Bryen of Cahirconner Esqr

Teige O Hogan of Youghill Gent

Hugh roe O Hogan of Youghill Gent &

Morish mcDennish (Hogan) of Loghaneleagh

Teige O Bryen owns his share by purchase from Daniell Hogan & Morish O’Hogan. This ties in with the fact that the lands here are probably linked to the former monastery here where the O’Hogans where coarbs. They probably would have retained the lands following the Dissolution of the Monasteries by Henry the VIII in the 1530s / 1540s. Unusually maybe the monastery is not mentioned in the description of the lands.

Morish mcDennis of Loghaneleagh is listed and I would have theorised that he was an O’Hogan and this is confirmed in the text. Interestingly it is a tailor named Denis Hogan of Creggane that was recorded in the Ordnance Survey Letters in the 1840s by O’Donovan as being in possession of St. Conlan’s Crozier - Bachall Chunnlain. It was thought to have passed down through the Hogan family who were descended from the Coarbs of Youghal. There is a Loughaun townland bordering Creggane.

Looking at other records we find a Gabriel Hogan listed for transplantation from Youghal to Galway – Barony of Ballymoe and the parish of Clonbern. There are no Hogans listed in that townland in the Griffiths Valuation.

There is also an Edmund Hogan – Late of Youghal who is listed for transplantation to Killaloe Parish in Co. Clare only a few miles down the River Shannon.

In the Hearth Money Rolls 1665 we find a Gabriel Hogan living in Youghal. This must surely be the same person that was listed for transplantation. There is also a Teige Morrish who I think may have some relationship with Morish mcDennish (Hogan).

In the 1666/67 we again find Gabriel Hogan in the townland. There are two Teige Hogana, one who may be the Teige O’Hogan mentioned in the Civil Survey. There is also a John McMorrogh. Similar to above I wonder could he be linked to Morish mcDennish (Hogan)?

If so you may have a small potential family tree.

Father - Denis O’Hogan

Son Morish McDennish Hogan (Civil Survey)

Grandsons – John McMorrogh Hogan – Teige McMorrogh Hogan

 

There are also two O’Bryans listed in the Hearth Money Rolls and they may be linked to Teige O’Bryen of Cahirconners purchase of lands here.

Looking at the later records, although the Hogans seem to have survived being transplanted to Connacht, they don’t fare too well in the townland with no Hogans in the Griffiths Valuation. There are some O’Briens though, for more on this see the link.
