Hi: My great-great-great grandmother was Bessie Liscoe of Mentrim House, Co Meath. She married John McCabe, a labourer and a Catholic, and so was disinherited and disowned. She had, I think, 5 or more children the names I know are: Michael (my G-g-grandfather, Edward, Bridget, James and Ellen.
She had two brothers, Anthony (1831-1915), unmarried, and Joseph (1853-c.1912) who has two mentions of marriage; either he was married twice, or there is a mistake; to Jane Shekleton, and to Mary Jane Sillery, who is mentioned as the mother of Robert Young Liscoe. In his will, which I have seen, Anthony bequeathed Mentrim House to his 'nephew' Robert Young Liscoe, of Columbus Platt County, Nebraska. He then sold it back to another member of the family.
Mentrim is now demolished, apart from one or two farm buildings.
Bessie Liscoe was a remarkable and courageous woman: having been cut off from the Liscoes, she bore the above children to John McCabe (at their wedding they had to use the door key as a ring as they couldn't afford a real one), and was widowed young. Her own family refused help, and she built a house literally with her own hands, at Kilbeg, Co Meath, a neighbour thatched it for her, and there she brought up her family. Three children emigrated to the US; Edward and Bridget to Fort Collins, Colorado, and Ellen to somewhere else. Edward's daughter married and moved to Kansas City (no married name known). James emigrated to Liverpool, England.
