Two large envelopes containing a few leases, but mostly tenants’ wills and case papers, all relating to Derrinsallagh, barony of Lower Ormond, Co. Tipperary, [which may or may not have been part of the Dunalley estate, but probably was a much later acquisition of the Earls of Rosse.] This section also includes Irish Land Commission sale papers relating to the ‘Derrinsallow’ property of John Pilkington.
Envelope of leases of Killeen, barony of Lower Ormond, Co. Tipperary, part of the Dunalley estate; including the will of one of the tenants, William Burke of Killeen, 1821. [In date order.]
Three singleton leases of lands in Co. Tipperary with baronial location not specified: Lelagh (1718), Lissballyard and Rathmakeena (1739), and Kilgrogane (1786). The first 2 leases were granted by Sir William Parsons, 2nd Bt; the last does not have a Parsons as a party.
