There is a Alexander Bailey in the Griffith valuation in 1864 - in Clonshannagh, which is in the same parish as sheepwalk.

I tried to trace this through the valuation revision books and I can see it going from a Robert Bailey to an Alexander Bailey in 1888, and then I think its sold in 1899 to William Godfrey.

Note - There is no baileys in Clonshannagh in 1833

There is a child Emma, born to an Alex Bailey in 1865

There is a marriage for an Alexander Bailey in 1869

I wonder if there is a way to determine if this is a decendant of Alexander Bailey.

He is also listed here as part of the Fermanagh light infantry, possibly as an Instructors of Musketry

And a captain in 1880

No idea of the significance of this but his name appears in Burkes Landed Gentry
