Yes, I had assumed that Buckley was a surname used as a forename honoring either his mother or possibly a grandmother, though it could be just a sign of respect to a neighboring prominent family. Ultimately it will come down to whether any 18/19 century genealogically oriented author either captured records then that were later destroyed or decided to write about these branches of the Butler family. Unfortunately, the name Thomas Butler is hardly unique as each branch and each generation seems to have a Thomas Butler. At some point will check the NLI for documents and manuscripts hoping for pedigree charts. No one said it was going to be easy. Again, I appreciate your time and assistance.

Yes thanks, I’ve utilized the following which were useful for Buckley and his lateral family and his descendants.

My main interest is in trying to see how Buckley (and his father and mother Thomas and Sarah) fits into the Butler family. These Butlers did not hold titles and so don’t show up in references like “The Chief Butlers of Ireland and the House of Ormond”. Given the timeframe and lack of records, perhaps this is not possible.

Re Mary Waring, Prerogative Marriage Licence Bonds for Ossory list her with Buckley in 1721. I’ve assumed she’s from Co Kilkenny. Buckley has a brother Thomas who’s a surgeon in Kilkenny and he owned a meat market in Kilkenny City. His will has his brother Thomas, his brother-in-law Pooley Molyneux and William Waring as executors. William Waring is possibly Mary Waring’s brother

Makes sense. Thank you again

Has anyone from or familiar with Derry/Londonderry seen an antique street map or have knowledge of the location of an old street called Horse Barrack Row. It was very likely located in the Boggside area. I appreciate the assistance.
