  3. John O'Hart, Irish Pedigrees:
  4. Family connection to Gerald Wall (born ca.1555) of Coolnamuck.
  5. In his 2-volume History of the Fanning Family (1905), W.F. Brooks publishes the "Registered Pedigree of James Fanning" (Dublin, 1776) of Stonehouse, Co. Waterford, covering 12 generations from the 1400s to 1700s. The Latin pedigree records that James is a descendant of this "Juliana Power" (daughter of Thomas Power of Culefin, squire [armiger] Co. Waterford) and "Galfridus Fanning" of Ballingarry, Co. Tipperary. The intervening generations (i.e., their descendants) are as follows:
    • James Fanning [born ca.1630] of Fanningstown, Co. Tipperary, married Helena Butler (daughter of Richard, squire [armiger] and descendant [stirpe; oriundi] of the Butlers of Ormond)
    • William Fanning [born ca.1655] of Fanningstown, married Elizabeth Butler (daughter of James, of Dangan, Co. Kilkenny, squire [armiger] and descendant [stirpe] of the Butlers of Dunboyne)
    • Richard Fanning [born ca.1680] of Rochestown, Co. Kilkenny, married Catharina Walsh (daughter of Richard, squire [armiger] of Knockmilan, Co. Kilkenny)
    • James Fanning [born ca.1705] of Waterford, married Elizabeth O'Neil (daughter of William, squire [armiger] of Rollinell, Co. Tipperary)
    • James Fanning [born ca.1730] of Stonehouse, Co. Waterford, married Francisca Butler (daughter of Richard, of Luffany, Co. KIlkenny, squire [armiger] of the Butlers of Ormond in Gowran)
  6. Geoffrey Fanning's pedigree, from the same source (W.F. Brooks, History of the Fanning Family (1905), is as follows:
    • Their son Richard Fanning [born ca.1484] married Ellice, daughter of Richard Butler, squire [armiger]
    • Their son Thomas Fanning [born ca.1520] of Ballingarry, married Ellice, daughter of Richard Power, squire [armiger] of Kilmeaden, Co. Waterford (possibly the son of Richard Le Poer)
    • Their son David Fanning [born ca.1560] of Ballingarry, married Elizabeth, daughter of John Comerford, Knight [equitis aurati] of Balliburr, Co. Tipperary (John was a possible uncle of Richard Comerford of Balliburr)
