Some of the townland names are difficult to make out and are old spellings.
The sale included town of Balldehob, Coolmountain and the tithes of 14 ploughlands of Durrus, Kilcrohane Kilmocoge among others for £3,882. In the tithe aplottments of 1830 the Evansons are listed as owners of the tithes with the local Minister.
Burlington is the successor in title to the Richard Boyle, Earl of Cork, he probably acquired some of the Mizen lands by mortgage from the O’Mahonys.
Tonson is a descendant on the illegitimate line of Sir Richard Hull of Lemcon.
Jeremiah/Jeremy Coughlan is an Attorney Seneschal of Dungarvan agent to the Earl of Cork/Burlingtons and from Carrigmanus his wife is Susanna Evanson from Coolnalong, Durrus. He and her brother Nathaniel Evanson were leasing Gearhameen and other townlands in Durrus from the Bernards of Bandon in the 1720s. The Coughlan line is probably related to Frances Coughlan who married Thomas Dukelow c 1810 and then moved from Crottees to Clashadoo.

From 1897 JCHAS.
Looking at the name profile from 1661 to 1686 the names are Planter from then to 1690 the old Cork Merchant family names Norman, Danish and Gaelic appear. From 1690 the names are Protestant mainly Planter the odd Huguenot but with a smattering of Norman and Gaelic who conformed to the Church of Ireland.

Will of Joseph Austin 21st May 1768, Cork, son John in Amherst, Nova Scotia and son-in-law James Brown, Halifax and Cork Canadian links
The Austins were prominent merchants, lawyers and landowners in Cork.
This is from the Welply collection of wills he transcribed before they were destroyed in 1922.
They show the extent of movement between Cork and the Maritime provinces of Canada around 1750. Later Canada was attractive for emigration being shorter then the USA which also then levied a poll tax on entry.
The witness William Callanan may be from the family of Doctors and Apothecaries of Mallow Lane (present Shandon Street).
Leading 1937 case on Irish libel law, Sinclair v Gogarty, Samuel Beckett’s affidavit, Arthur Cox, Aidan Higgins memories of Gogarty, Con Curran, Justice Kenneth Reddin bringing Olhausen’s Black pudding to Joyce in Paris, Patrick Kavanagh trial, Chief Justice Hugh Kennedy, Tim Healy Governor General, Denis Johnson, Lady Gleneavy.
