As you probably already know, Janet, there is a John Harding and a widow Harding living in 'Moanaaviddoge' in the Tithe Applotments for Oola Civil Parish of 1826. I transcribed them for the civil parish and they are on the Co. Limerick part of my website. -- Pat Connors, Sacramento CA http://www.connorsgenealogy.com

I'm stuck again. I am looking for any information on the Harding's (Harden's/Harty's?) that settled originally in Oola, Co. Limerick; part of the family later settled along the road between Monard and Cullen, in Russellstown, Ballygadoon and Monard. Giles, William and Alice, brothers and sister, speculated in land in Ireland as Adventurers (sigh) and arrived in Ireland shortly after the Cromwellian war ended. They originally took land in and around Oola. William APPEARS to have had only one son, Ambrose, and Ambrose took land in Monard, Ballygadoon and Russellstown, Co. Tipperary, only a few miles from Oola. There is always the chance that Ambrose could be illegitimate. Ambrose Harding also leased land at Shanaclogh, Co. Limerick at this same time [Shanaclogh is at the meeting place of 4 Limerick baronies - Connello Upper, Pubblebrien & Coonagh, and at the meeting of 3 civil parishes - Oola, Croom and Crecora & Tipperary & Croom PLU's] and Ballylahiff in the civil parish of Oola, Co. Limerick , and this is exactly where Giles and his brother, William, had received lands. Shanaclogh E. Lease 1751 by Ambrose Harding to Henry Grady for 3 lives renewable for ever. Last renewal 1830 by John Earl of Portarlington to Thos Lloyd. (Coonagh, Co. Limk). >From some old Smith rentrolls from 1749, Ambrose Harding leases part of Monard, Ballygadoon and part of Russellstown. Ambrose Harding's lease is for 2 lives and uses George Peacock of (sic) Greage, Co. Limerick & William Harding of (Sic) Corgrick? [which is Corgrig, Co. Limerick, in the barony of Shanid, civil parish of Robertstown, and Glin PLU]. Also in Ballygadoon is a William Harding and Widow Harding. Ambrose had a total of 320 acres, and was the 3rd largest lessee of land from the Smith Estate, right behind Joseph Grove and Solomon Delane. George Peacock was a deputy Clerk of the Crown for Limerick and Kerry. Ambrose Harding was a subscriber in 1672 to: Richard Cumberland, A Treatise of the Laws of Nature [pub. 1672]. He must have been an adult in 1672. He appears to have lived at least until 1749. I am looking for the wife and other children of William Harding, and the wife and children of his son, Ambrose Harding, either in Co. Limerick or Co. Tipperary. Ambrose is an unusual name, especially for this family, and I suspect it may have been the Christian name of his wife's father. Anybody have an Ambrose "something" c. 1650-ish whose daughter doesn't have a husband yet and may have been from around the Oola/Monard area? Janet

William Champion, the lineal ancestor of the Head Pontificator, was, I believe, an officer in Monmouth's Regiment. He established himself near Nenagh in the Co. Tipperary. His first experiment as a settlor was inauspicious, inasmuch as the Tipperary folk three times burned his house over his head - the proprietor on each occasion narrowly escaping with his life!

About 1800 a Hogan boy was playing marbles with an O'Brien boy and they quarreled and the feud began between the families. The Bog-Boys were those living in and near the lands of Cappaghrue and bogs of Tulla, about 4 miles from Nenagh. The Cumminses resided in the mountains between Toomavara and Borris-o-Leigh.

15-5-1848 From the Tipperary Vindicator. Cappawhite, May 6th. On Thursday last the sheriff appeared by proxy on the town land of Gurthnacola, the property of Vincent Scully, Esq, of Kilfeacle House, furnished with all the legal authority for ejectment, and all the armed rightfulness usual on such occasions. At once the officer of the law set about the work of his mission, and in a very short time executed it. Down came the houses of;-- Andy Ryan, with his family of 11 persons left without a home, he held 16 acres. James Dwyer, 6 persons, 13 acres. Andy Ryan, 2 persons, 6.5 acres. Thomas Kelly, 7 persons, 9 acres. Widow Breen, 7 persons, 1 acre. Patrick Carroll, 4 persons, 4.5 acres. Andy Ryan, 6 persons, 6.5 acres. These expelled tenants held their farms under a middle man up to Sept. last, paid their rents punctually, I understand, were most industrious, paid high rents---£2 and £2.6 per acre, were willing to submit to the same rents, offered securities for the fulfilment of these engagements--one, I am assured, offered two years rent in advance as a security. Their farms were well tilled, yet they had to quit; they did not happen to hold a measure of land sufficient to constitute them respectable tenants, they had not leases, and a landlord "can do what he likes with his own".
30-10-1849 Freeman's Journal. Condition of Tipperary. Famine and extermination are still thinning the numbers of the once hardy sons of this soil. Greenane House is no longer the residence of a Mansergh; its splendid drawing rooms and extended corridors are now in the occupancy of the outcasts for whom the poor law makes a provision. The baronial walls of Lisheen House mouldering to decay, scarcely afford a shelter to the owner against the storms of adversity. Clune House, Bansha, no longer recognises the claims of a M'Carthy; it has passed from change to change, until its doors at last have opened to receive the paupers of the suffering union, as an auxiliary workhouse. Castle Lloyd has lost its ancestral dignities, and has been turned to a similar purpose. Moore's Forth, the residence of the late Crosby Moore, it is thought will, ere long, become a workhouse. Goldenville, the residence of Henry White, no longer receives the elite of the Country, it is now in the possession of the Tipperary vice-guardians, and the refugium peccatorum of the extermination of Golden. The extensive stores of the late Maurice O'Brien, in the Main Street, in the vicinity of the aristocracy, are also occupied by the wretched and the out-cast, and Nelson Street presents the appearance of one monster workhouse. The Bradshaws and the Bakers have sought the situation of poor-rate collectors and obtained it. So progresses the ruin of the Gentry. Extermination, too, is progressing at a fearful rate. The landlords are employed at Marble Hill in demolishing the homes of the peasantry, while hundreds come into this town from the rural districts to claim protection from Mr. Richards, the humane vice-guardian of the union.

Nenagh Guardian. 9-5-2008 The well-known story of Daniel and William Cormack and their controversial murder trial in the mid nineteenth century continues to hold much intrigue throughout Tipperary. The brothers were publicly hanged outside Nenagh Gaol on May 11, 1858 after being found guilty of the murder of John Ellis, a land agent in Loughmore. Daniel and William always maintained that they had played no part in the crime, and they were supported by some 2,357 people who signed a petition protesting the brothers innocence. The commonly held view at the time was that a local landlord had shot Ellis in a crime of passion involving Ellis sister, and that the Cormack brothers had been framed for murder. That defence did not hold sway in court however, and the Loughmore brothers met their fate at the end of the hangman's rope in Nenagh in an execution that many locals regarded as a cruel miscarriage of justice. In 1910 Daniel and William's remains were removed from Nenagh Gaol and brought home to Loughmore in a major ceremony, with two hearses drawn by plumed horses and followed by huge crowds. After the procession arrived in the village, the Cormack brothers were buried in a large mausoleum in the local churchyard, where people still go to see the original oak coffins and the inscription proclaiming the brothers innocence. The Cormack brothers legacy lives on in Tipperary, and on this the 150th anniversary of their execution, a local committee has formed to arrange a historic re-enactment of their homeward procession to Loughmore. The elaborate event will feature two horse drawn funeral hearses as its centrepiece, behind which relatives of the Cormacks from around Ireland and America will walk as chief mourners. There will also be two vintage 1908 cars, three 1914 cars and about 20 pony and traps in the procession, and the committee will even be using an original flag that featured in the 1910 procession. All participants involved in the re-enactment will be garbed in period dress, and anyone planning on attending the event is asked to also wear old, dark clothing to try and add to the authenticity of the procession. RTÉ?s Nationwide programme is scheduled to cover the event, which is due to take place from around 2pm this Sunday. The procession will follow a planned route from a field about a mile and half outside the village on the road to Templemore. It will arrive at the old churchyard for a Latin Mass at 3pm. Note that Loughmore will be closed to traffic that afternoon but that nearby parking will be provided for those attending the event. Note also that Nenagh Heritage Centre will be open this Saturday May 10 from 10am to 5pm to mark the 150th anniversary of the Cormack Brothers? execution at Nenagh Gaol. Visitors will be able to inspect the centre?s museum, which is located in the former gaol governor?s house, and also the gatehouse, where visitors can see the condemned cells, execution area, and an exhibition on the Cormack brothers (admission free).
Laurie, a chara, The perception of lawlessness is one of perspective. Often the magistrates had other agendas than justice, as did tithe proctors, and evictors. In the posts about the eviction, the dates correspond to An Gorta Mor, when the rack rents being charged the poor tenant farmers was excessive - even in the face of famine. During this time, Ireland was EXPORTING food. The food which the tenants grew for sustenance - the potato - was the crop which did not grow. And, it never did for three years. The misery and anxiety of these poor starving people is a lesson to us all. But these were hardly lawless men. Even the others - from the 1786 post - who were involved in a local rising of sorts - are hardly more guilty than those they sought to confront. The renrs were excessively high, and all were required to pay a tithe (even though the Catholics were not part of the flock of the Protestant clergyman). The total cost for rent and tithe amounted to the entire potential income from the land. There was not a penny left over for clothing, or maintaining one's cottage. When extra charges for burial were added, or for marriage, it was beyond the means of those charged with paying it. At the same time, their commonage was fenced in - removing the only grazing land that enabled them to feed their animals. Taken in combination, these measures were a death sentence. Those who decided to rise up were chosing to fight - risking even death - rather than perish slowly with their families from want of food. So if the reports were written by those listed as being charged, it would be the other side which seemed to be criminals.

16-11-1878 Freeman's Journal Court of Bankruptcy. In re Daniel Quirke. The bankrupt was a farmer and publican at Cappawhite, County Tipperary. The bankrupt was brought up in the custody of a warder of Clonmel Jail, having been arrested on an allegation that he was about to leave the country. Mr. John Hogan, Auctioneer, of Tipperary, was examined by Mr. Carton, Q.C. (instructed by Mr. O'Meara), for the assignees, relative to a sale of the bankrupt's farm and effects. He sold the bankrupt's property on the 10th of August, under instructions received from him, and realised £1065.7.10. There were but a few bidders, and Mr. Ryan, the bankrupt's brother in law, purchased everything. The property realised the full value, but there was an agreement that £600 of the money should remain out for six years. Mr. John Ryan deposed that he lent £650 to the bankrupt from time to time. He borrowed the money himself. He got no acknowledgement from the bankrupt, nor did he give any to the parties from whom he himself had borrowed. He bought the farm and effects for himself, and it was a perfectly bona fide purchase. Daniel Quirke, the bankrupt, was examined. He said money was lent to him by Ryan, and that there was no arrangement between them that the latter was to buy anything. He still continued to reside in the house thought it had been bought by Ryan. He had no intention of leaving the country. Except to Ryan, he only owed £120 or £180. Judge Miller discharged the bankrupt, and said it was a fair case for settlement. Mr. Scallan appeared for the bankrupt. 21-2-1880. Before Judge Walsh. In the matter of Timothy Fogarty. The bankrupt was a farmer at Coolagh, in County Tipperary. He is at present in custody in the Jail of Nenagh under the warrant of the court. On a former day he was examined relative to his affairs generally. The meeting today was for examination of witnesses. Mr. Perry, instructed by Mr. A.L. Ryan examined the daughter and son of the bankrupt, to whom he alleged he had paid certain sums of money. The case was further adjourned. Mr. Gibson, instructed by Mr. Matthews, appeared for the witnesses. In the case of Robert Stanley. The bankrupt was a farmer residing at Castle Fleming Heath, near Roscrea, Co. Tipperary. He was examined by Mr. Carton, Q.C., instructed by Mr. John Roe, on behalf of the assignee, with regard to the alleged removal of property, but he denied that since his bankruptcy he had disposed of anything. While he was in Dublin, his wife had sold a horse, but he did not know that at the time of making his accounting statement. Mr. George Perry, instructed by Mr. J. Perry, appeared for the bankrupt.

Daring burglary and robbery at Inch House. On the morning of Thursday, a person who gave his name as Thomas Kernan, a native of Taghmon, Co. Wexford., effected an entrance into Inch House, Borrisoleigh, the residence of George Ryan, Esq. D.L., by extracting a pane of glass from the window of the hall door. After picking three locks he entered the dining room, and finding a quantity of plate, value over 30/., with a garduvin, he decamped with his booty. Not having gone far, he opened the garduvin and found two decanters of wine, and being tempted to try the flavour of the juice of the grape, he drank rather freely. Making his way towards Templemore, his course was directed by Dovea barracks. A herd of Mr. O'Meara's, of Bouladuff House, seeing a suspicious looking person crossing the fields, pursued him in the direction of the barracks, and on his alarming the police, Mr. Ryan's coachman arrived at the same time. The active Constable Hoolahan and his party were immediately on the look out, and in a short time Sub Constable Tracy arrested the lad with the entire plate in his possession. He was committed to Nenagh Gaol by J.G. Jones, R.M. to stand his trial at the next quarter sessions.
