10 Charles of Alderford. Following his death in 1759, his
wife and children were evicted from Alderford by his brother John
who conformed to the Protestant Church of Ireland. In addition
to the children shown, he had a son Denis by Eleanor. Denis worked
briefly as a tutor for the O'Conors of Belangare c. 1770's. Abandoning
plans to become a priest, he moved to England to become an apothecary
c. 1780. He may be the Denis McDermot who married Susanna Maskell,
18 December 1785, St Nicholas Church, Tillingham, Essex, England.
11 Married first at the age of about 13 to her cousin Charles
O'Conor of Sligo by whom she had several children including Anne
and Eleanor. Married second to Charles Mac Dermot Roe of Alderford.
Eleanor was a close friend of composer Turlough O'Carolan. Eleanor's
daughter Mary said that his last song was composed for her mother.
Eleanor was present at O'Carolan's bedside when he died at Alderford,
25 March 1738. Eleanor died c. 1807 while living with her nephew
Charles O'Conor of Mount Allen, Kilronan Parish. Her brother,
Charles O'Conor of Belangare 1710-1791, not to be confused with
her first husband or her nephew, was the renowned historian and
Catholic rights advocate.

was a grocer in Summerhill, Dublin as indicated by his testimony
on behalf of Patrick Dillon, 11th Earl of Roscommon, in the Roscommon
Peerage Trial in the Irish House of Lords. He emigrated to America
and was grocer and tobacconist in New York City early 1800's.
Charles, New York City tobacconist c. 1876, appears to be his
son or grandson.

Encampment of Ireland on 30 July 1789 along with Howe Green. He
is referred to in testimony at the Roscommon Peerage Trial in
the Irish House of Lords in 1793. Testimony indicates he was married.

After William Taylor's death in Paris, she returned to Ireland
to live with her mother Eleanor. She later married William Coulthard,
