Some additional info on a Protestant church in this civil parish: Kilquane of St. Patrick's North A chapelry, in the barony of Bunratty, county of Clare, and province of Munster, 2 miles (N.) from Limerick, on the north side of the river Shannon; containing 2028 inhabitants...On the river Blackwater, which runs into the Shannon, are two large flour-mills, the property of S. Caswell, Esq...The seats are Spring Hill, the residence of P. McAdam, Esq. ; Quinsborough, of Martin Honan, Esq. (formerly the residence of Lord George Quin); Whitehall, of Capt. R. Kane; Fairy Hill, of E. Burnard, Esq.; Thomas Island, of J. Tuthill, Esq. ; and Cottage, of R. Rodgers, Esq. It is a perpetual cure, forming with Singland, or St. Patrick's South, the rectory of St. Patrick, in the diocese of Limerick, and part of the union of St. Patrick and of the corps of the treasurership of the cathedral of Limerick. The tithes, amounting to £184. 12. 33/4., are payable to the rector ; the curate has a stipend of £75, and £12 per ann. from Primate Boulter's augmentation fund. The church is a neat building with a tower and spire, towards which the late Board of First Fruits granted £700 in 1819...The parochial school is chiefly supported by the rector, who allows £10 per ann. and discharges the rent of the school-house ; and at Parteen is a large national school, chiefly supported by a grant of £30 per ann. from the Board. The school-house, erected by Mr. Honan in 1833, consists of a centre and two projecting wings, and contains apartments for the master and mistress. The ruins of the old church still remain in the burial-ground. Samuel Lewis description of 1837 , on Clare Library's site http://www.clarelibrary.ie/eolas/coclare/places/kilquane1837.htm Note that there is large Caswell family history website, in which the current Canadian branch traces its line back to Blackwater. I don't have a link for that handy right now, but, if interested, just Google with key terms. Also note that "Carbally" in the marriage record is Corbally, the one close to Kilquane. According to the Brian Mitchell book on churches and graveyards of Ireland, the "established church" building was on the townland of Parteen, and the only graveyard for St. Patricks civil parish was on the townland of Kilquane. One last thing to note, a Dennis Canny of Ennis made quite a name for himself in the early to mid 1800s; some of that should come up with Googling. You might also want to do some follow-up with the biographical notices microfiche having the Rose ffolliott (copyrighted) data, which I mention a lot but which is not online.
