George Cashel,
He mar 15 Feb 1840
to Jane Anne Franklin.
He is listed as George Cashel the younger, of Bedford, in his
sister's
marriage settlement, 30 Apr 1840.
He and his wife lived at least 1843-1849 at Roseland Cottage (or Rose Land),
Grogeen townland, just SE of Listowel, Co.Kerry.
Listed as of "Rose Land" under Listowel
in [Slater's Directory, 1846].
They moved to the area of
Ballybunion, Co.Kerry,
a bit NW of Listowel.
At dau's birth 1851 they are living at Ballyduff
and the child is baptised at Killehenney CoI church
(or Killehenny, this is Ballybunion).
Ballyduff, Rattoo par, is a little S of Ballybunion.
Rattoo civil parish borders Killehenny civil parish.
It is possible this is an error for Barraduff. It is hard to tell.
Ballyduff is plausible too.
There is a "George Cashel" listed
in
[Griffiths Valuation, 1852]
at Glanerdalliv, Rattoo par,
S of Ballyduff.
Renting from Wilson Gun.
George is listed
in
[Griffiths Valuation] 1851 or 1852
as of
Barraduff, Lisselton par, a little E of Ballybunion.
Lisselton civil parish borders Killehenny civil parish.
Listed at "Ballybunion"
at children's baptisms 1852-1856.
Listed as of "Barraduff Cottage" in newspaper notice of daughter's birth 1854.
Listed at "Ballybunion" at her baptism.
So "Ballybunion" seems to be shorthand for places near Ballybunion.
His
father died 1855.
He
inherited
Shallee House, Co.Tipperary.
George Cashel,
of Shallee, is listed in
