Place & story
Irwin names in successive records
The University of Galway’s Landed Estates research places Rathmoyle in Baslick parish. It identifies Arthur Irwin, a farmer, as resident there in the 1749 Census of Elphin, and Richard Irwin as resident in both 1814 and 1837. At Griffith’s Valuation, Richard leased a property valued at £35 from George H. Kirkaldy. These records connect the place with named residents across several periods, while the valuation distinguishes the tenant from the person who leased the property to him. [2]
