Each family has preserved its original allotment, which is well-drained and cultivated; and all have an air of comfort and independence, to which the large farmers - aye, and many of the large landowners around - are strangers." http://books.google.ie/books?id=1iivqU4d7OYC&pg=PA326&dq=Nenagh+date:1600-1850&lr=&num=20&as_brr=1 Trial of "Flogger" Fitzgerald [Wright vs. Fitzgerald] 1799 Witnesses: William Nicholson, a relation of Wright's Solomon Watson, a Quaker; Wright had taught French to his children Maj.

Clare, in the year 1778. His family went from Somersetshire in the reign of Charles II. Their name was then Champion, which they changed to that of Steele, for reasons now unknown. 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! Unwilling to incur the perials of a 4th combustion, he migrated to the more pacific county of Clare, where his posterity have ever since continued to reside.
