Patrick Flanagan ... [1]
Patrick became the head gardener on the Foxhall estate, Rathrea, Ballymahon, Co. Longford. It was a large high-walled 3 acre Victorian style enclosed garden which provided the mansion with all its daily requirements. He had joined the estate as a general servant with his young family, where they had a small cottage, house 4, in the grounds. (I have the census results for 1903, 1911 showing the details). His master, Capt. William Waller Fox, sent him up to the Botanic Gardens in Dublin, to study horticulture. This was expressly for the purpose of raising fruit trees etc. in his gardens. I am applying for research results from the B.G. of his time there, if records are available.
