The Tipperary Antiquarian

  From -  The Civil Survey A.D. 1654–56 vol. ii, county of Tipperary western and northern baronies - Irish Manuscripts  - available to download here Garrynatineel The following are recorded in the Civil Survey Connor O Bryen of Knockane Esqr Dermott O Bryen of Garrynytynle Gent Thomas Arthur of Lymicke Doctor in phisicke Connor mcKeoagh of Garrynetinylle Thomas Arthur purchases his land from Daniel O’ Brien Esqr. The only possible link between Civil Survey and Hearth Money Rolls that I can see is McThomas. It is unlikely that the Mc naming pattern would be applied here is Son of Thomas Arthur but it is the only record of a McThomas in the Hearth Money Rolls in Arra. None of the names carry down to the Tithe Applotments or Griffiths Valuation. McKeoghs do appear in the 1901 census. https://thetipperaryantiquarian.blogspot.com/2025/04/hearth-money-rolls-garrynatineel.html

                                                                   Created by Derek Ryan  In the Hearth Money Rolls 1665 The following names were recorded in Garrynatineel townland (Gorritovale / Gorrenetyneell ). Manus Flahurty Teige McThomas Mahowne McShane There is also 1666-7 addon / additional return. James Flaghertye Teige McThomas William McDaniell   Generally the first name in a townland seems to be the most important landowner. At least that is my impression so far. Interestingly this one of the few townlands where Flahertys are the most prominent landowner.   Teige McThomas is common to both lists. Other than Flaherty, the other surnames are likely to be sons or descendants of other people in the townland or nearby eg Teige McThomas is actually Teige O’Brien son of Thomas O’Brien. The next avail...

  From -  The Civil Survey A.D. 1654–56 vol. ii, county of Tipperary western and northern baronies - Irish Manuscripts  - available to download here Coolnadororny The following were recorded in the Civil Survey for this townland Connor O Bryan of Knockane Esqr. Dermott Bryen of Garrynytynylle Gt. Loghlen mcKeoagh of Coollnydornory gt. Owny mcShane of the same Gent Teige mcDaniell of Parteine ffisherm Owny mc. Donogh of Garrymergine gt. A possible carry through to the HMR records is Daniell McLoughlin, he could possibly be the son of Loghlen McKeogh. There is also a James McKeogh and a John McDonnogh both of course could be related to their surname namesakes in the Civil Survey but it is impossible to know now. There is an O’Brien in the Griffiths Valuation but none of the rest of the surnames carry down in the later records here. https://thetipperaryantiquarian.blogspot.com/2025/04/hearth-money-rolls-coolnadornory.html

  Created by Derek Ryan  In the Hearth Money Rolls 1665 The following names were recorded in Coolnadororny (Cooldornory) townland John McDonnogh Daniell  McLoughlen Daniell  Hogane James     McKeogh Donnogh McCormuck There doesn’t seem to be a 1666-7 addon / additional return. Generally the first name in a townland seems to be the most important landowner. At least that is my impression so far. This townland seems to be predominately Gaelic surnames. We have McDonagh, McLoughlin, Hogan, McKeogh & McCormack / Cormican. The four Mcs here are more than likely to be regular surnames rather than sons or descendants of someone else in the townland. The next available "Census" for the area is the Tithe Appointment Books 1826. Surprisingly given the Gaelic nature of the Hearth surnames here, none carry through. https://titheapplotmentbooks.nationalarchives.ie/search/tab/results.jsp?county=Tipperary&parish=Templeachally&townland=Cooladornory%2CCool...

  Beakstown Mill by Derek Ryan I first came across reference to a Ryan interest in a castle at Beakstown on Wikitree https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/O'Mulryan-2 I'm not 100% convinced that John O'Mulryan of Beakstown is the same as the John O'Mulryan that was Abbot of Abbeyowney but we will see.  Hayes's book "Burials in Holycross Abbey" (pg 18) seems to back-up some of the information on Wikitree. "BURIAL OF OLIVER OGE MORRIS ...... He was married to a daughter of John Mac Conor O'Mulryan who occupied the Purcell Castle in Beakstown, already alluded to. He had a grant of Farney Castle which was built around this period by Ormonde. Colonel Morres also asserts that Sir Oliver Morres, father of Oliver Oge, who died in 1530, was buried in Holycross as well.  His wife's people, the O'Mulryans, who were tenants of the barons of Loughmore in Beakstown, were probably buried in the Abbey." However we don't know how trustworthy the source of...

  From -  The Civil Survey A.D. 1654–56 vol. ii, county of Tipperary western and northern baronies - Irish Manuscripts  - available to download here Knockdromin / Incha Beg / Inchamore Connor O Bryen of Knockane Esqr. Donogh mcPhillipp of Insybegg Gent Teige McKeogh of Knockydromune Gt. Owny McKeogh of Garrymeregine Gt. William McKeogh of Ballyda Gent The HMR have a few possible strands. There is a Mahoone McTeige and there is also a Mahowne McKeogh. In the Civil Survey we have a Teige McKeogh. So I would think there is a good possibility that this Mahoone / Mahowne is a son of Teige McKeogh. There is also an Edmond McWillm, there is a William McKeogh in the Civil Survey so Edmond could possibly be his son and therefore this Edmond is a McKeogh. There is a Donnogh Byren recorded in the HMR. Could he be the same as the Donogh mcPhillipp of Insybegg. Probably a bit of a stretch. We are reviewing at least three different townlands and so a name that is recorded in the Civil ...

                                                           Created by Derek Ryan  In the Hearth Money Rolls 1665 This townland took a bit of figuring out as you can see by the various names it previously had. The following names were recorded in Knockadromin townland (Queildrumni / Cnocknednimin / Killdromina).   Edward Howell Daniell Tuohy Edmd. McWillm Mahowne Hogane           Kenedy Bryen Mahowne McKeogh Owley Leery Donnogh Bryen         There is also 1666-7 addon / additional return. Mahoon Hogan Teige O'Bryan Edward Howell Mahoone McTeige Donnogh O'Bryan   Generally the first name in a townland seems to be the most important landowner. At least that is my impression so far. In this townland this rule doesn’t seem to hold true. Edward Howell is listed first in 1665 but 3rd in ...
