The Silver Bowl: 1795 May 4 COULTER-COULTER


From the Collection of Nigel Dickie.

1795 May 4

There are two versions of this deed on this page. The first is from the Indenture of a Deed shared with me by Nigel Dickie. The version beneath it was transcribed by Wendy Jack from notes taken at the Deeds Registry in Dublin.

NOTE: I have transcribed this using voice recognition, and even though I have trolled through it looking for errors, this does not mean that the following transcription is error free. It is the best that I can do at this time – given other calls on my time. I have yet to run down information on many of the names – but have left room in footnotes to add later.

[7] William COULTER. He was a brother of Samuel, Charles, and John. Their parents are as yet unknown. A link to the COULTERs of Lisnawooley is likely. Alexander COULTER (1637-1721/22) came over from Scotland. He had two known sons. The descendents of Thomas are well known. The story of the other son, Joseph COULTER, is still a mystery to me. He had a grandson whose name is unknown, and who was born 1755.

[8] Charles COULTER. He was a brother of Samuel, William, and John. Their parents are as yet unknown. See above note on his brother, William.
