NOTES

  1. COLBY - Ballacosney
  2. Thomas Mylroie was a younger son of James Mylroie snr & Elinor Skillicorn who married in about 1885
  3. Thomas's parents had 7 children with some kind of record: BAPTISM - James jnr (1788), Margaret (1791), John (1793), William (1796), Elinor (1801), Joseph (1805). PROBATE - Thomas, with no baptismal record but perhaps born about 1800, and died in 1840 with his parents James & Elinor administering his estate
  4. A Settlement made in 1839 from James snr to James jnr also mentioned Thomas, which could suggest that Thomas was the second son, and thus older than Joseph baptised 1805
  5. Thomas's brother John died in 1817, leaving brother James jnr & Joseph to carry on the family name
