Karen, I have one Sankey record. Catherine Sankey married William Quillinan in 1772 in Fethard and they had six children there, all in the RC parish records. Catherine had to be related to the following but I have no idea how as she probably was disinherited and never mentioned again: " 1715 - 22. Jacob Sankey of Mobarnane, elected nem. con. and sworn 20th Dec. 1715, in the room of Mathew Jacob, his father in law who Resigned in his favour: dead before 12th March, 1721/2: Sovereign 1719/20. [will 6th September 1721: pr. 11th June 1723. He was son of Richard Sankey of Dublin (d. 1693), Colonel in the army of King William]. (by Mary, dau of William Taylor of Ballynort, Co. Limerick), son of Richard Sankey of Hodnet, Salopshire, which Richard was a brother of Col. Hierome Sankey, the Cromwellian governor of the precinct of Clonmel. Jacob Sankey m. in Abagail daughter. of Mathew Jacob (q.v) of St. Johnstown, and was *ancestor of the Sankeys of Coolmore, near Fethard*. (BLG. 1879; Betham, Extracts. XXIII - 376, and Bewley, p.494 in G.O. Ireland under the Commonwealth, Dunlop, I - 27n. et passin."
