Believed to live in "granny" This is not a 100% for sure name, circumstantial only. Living close to Ballincurragh in Granny.
Griffiths evaluation and family letters: Spring Assizes 1826 give Walter the title "high constable of poundage" meaning he supervised county expenditures for road repair, orphan care, hospital care, and was something akin to a deputy sheriff I believe? In the tithing reports he is given the title of Mr, not seen elsewhere? his name shows up in many marriage records, Southern Kilkenny as sponsor or witness. I believe he had a farm, rock quarry, near Granny.
Name connection and mentioned in family letters, tithing and Kilkenny documents, one of which gave him the title, High Constable of Poundage.
Additional information pre 1800 is difficult to find ,I am seeking any and all information should anyone have it, thanks. John Barron.
