Eva Sophia Fuller, second daughter of Lizzy Hyland and Captain Adam Henry Fuller, was born 27 January 1853. At Saint Anns, Dublin, on 18 January 1873, she married Robert Warburton Marsh, son of WH Marsh of Moate, County Westmeath. They had three sons and one daughter: John Marsh (1874-1874), William Bickerstaff Marsh (b. 1875), Francis Warburton Marsh, and Eva Elizabeth Marsh. John Marsh died in infancy. William Bickerstaff Marsh moved to America and died in Montana. Francis Warburton Marsh married Elinor McCormack, and had one daughter named Eva Aileen Marsh. Eva Elizabeth married twice, first to John Wesley Sedore, and second to J. [Monteith].

Adam Henry Fuller, the second son of Maria Blanch and Adam Fuller JP, was born 24 October 1822. On 20 Aug 1845 he married Lizzy Hyland. They had five children; Adam Augustus (13 Jul 1846 - 7 June 1919), Maria Blanch (b. 18 Oct 1848), Eva Sophia (b. 28 Jan 1853), Lizzie Helen, and Adam Henry (14 Mar 1866 - 1898). When his parents moved to Sandymount, Dublin in 1851, Henry Fuller had leased a home for his family in Coleraine, near Tullamore. After the death of his father, Adam Fuller, Captain Adam Henry Fuller became the landlord of Gurteen. At the time Gurteen was still let out, just like Woodfield House, on a lease. In 1866, Marcus Goodbody (1810-1885) requested to buy up the remainder of this lease, and Captain Fuller agreed. After this agreement, Goodbody then requested to lease Gurteen forever, at the same £1000 down, and again Captain Fuller agreed. The night before the lease agreement was to be signed, Captain Fuller dreamt that he was standing on the top of Gurteen Castle and Ann Unthank (Ann Gee) appeared to him. She showed him a lease, of which he was able to read the first four lines, and he noticed the wording was peculiar. Anne told him that if he signed the lease, it would be at his peril, threw it over the wall, and he woke up. The next morning, without telling his wife about the dream, he went to Tullamore to sign the lease. When the document was put before him he saw that the beginning was similar to the words he had seen in his dream. Remarking on their peculiarity he was told that it was a more modern way of drawing up leases, so he signed it. When he got home he told his wife, Lizzy Fuller, about the dream and she was very angry that he had signed the lease. With the money from the lease of Gurteen, Captain Fuller bought Rockfield, and moved his family from Coleraine.

Captain Fuller then went up to his regiment in County Monaghan, where he contracted typhoid fever. After being ill for some time he went to his brother, Reverend Abraham Stritch Fuller’s house in Fitzwilliam Place, Dublin, where he died within a year of signing the lease. Lizzy Fuller continued to lived on at Rockfield where her son Adam was born just after his father’s death in 1866.

Rockfield was built some time after 1798 by a man named Higgins who had leased the land from the Fuller Family. It wa reported that he was an informer and received bribes from the government. This likely lead to his death, as he was found dead beside his horse on the road. His son, Harry, ran though all of his money and was reduced to poverty. Captain Adam Henry Fuller purchased Rockfield with money paid for him by Marcus Goodbody for the lease of Gurteen.

When Doctor Dalkeith Holmes Plunkett-Johnston died at Streete, in Somerset, Mrs Maria Blanche Plunkett-Johnston took her daughter Constance Charlotte, to live with her mother Mrs. Lizzy Fuller at Rockfield. Mrs. Fuller died in 1902, and Ms Plunkett-Johnston went to Dublin to stay with her uncle the Reverend Abraham Stritch Fuller DD. Rockfield became the property of Abraham Augustus Fuller, who let it to a man named Griffiths. When the estate was sold, Griffiths retained Rockfield, and later sold it to a man named Walsh.
