24th Regiment of Foot, Ireland 1805

While working through the newspaper references the name Jones was closely associated with Whitefort. I'd read the article mentioned here -

1794 newspaper advert - "Pursuant to the will of the late Elias Bowler, Esq, 120 A of the lands of Whitefort, otherwise Derrynastin,** subject to the lease of 3 lives ... at the yearly rent of £66 6s ..." 

** the item reads "Derrynastin" but I think it should read "Derrynaslin, which is north west of Holy Cross/Nenagh

Elias Bowler was an army man, Lieutenant and Quartermaster in the 15th regiment, died late 1793

These 1846/7 evaluations relate to a Robert Jones, Esq., at Holycross.

Hanes, the newspaper reports you have posted are very helpful thankyou    The 1810
report on John Jones is particularly interesting.

Thanks also for the Valuation office books, I note the presence of a Henry Jones as an occupier
of land with Robert Jones Esq. as lessor.  The continued use of 3 names throughout the generations
makes it extremely difficult without supporting BDM records.

Regards,
Jen.
