My Irish Journal, William Penn includes his sojourns in Cork 1669-70.

Part of University College Cork CELT project.

Penn shows himself to be quite sectarian and dismissive of Catholics in the journal probably reflecting the common English contemporary prejudices f the time. he is also a tough administrator of his father’s estates.

Motif of John Molony (spelling varies), Surveyor, Co. Cork c 1750-1820.

In the 1739 deed from Burlington some Clonakilty tenants are names including one Molony, this is not a common name in Cork may be a relation of John Molony.
