(this was an Abigail

Ireland
explanation)
1. Francis
Boles
b. ~ 1641
Liscarroll (the Civil Census (Pender's Census) of 1659 lists
'Richard Boles and his son Francis' so Francis must have been at
least 18 and so was likely the child born at Liscarroll in 1641)

William Alwyn) 1670

(he pre-deceased his father making his bother Thomas the principal
heir to their father's holdings)
(his widow, Mary Boles alias Alwyn, may have remarried as there is
an entry in the above mentioned index for a Mary Bowles marriage to
a James Hingston in 1679)
2. Thomas
Boles
b. ~ 1643
m. Ann Warner (b. June
19, 1656 Ballynakilly, co. Cork; Edward, Eleanor Magner) 1676 co.

2.1 Thomas
Boles
b. ~
1680 co. Cork
m. Catherine Upton (b.

William of Ballinabearna, co.
Limerick, Mary Conyers) 1703 co. Cork
He inherited the family estate in

Killybraher (Kilbreedy), co. Cork.

2.1.1.1 Thomas
Boles
b. ~ 1740 co. Cork
m. Grace Godsell (b. ~ 1740; Amos, Grace Carleton) 1766 Sunville,
co. Limerick
(they were 'of Moyge' when he was admitted as a Freeman of Fethard
in 1774 but must have moved out, likely to Charleville where his
wife died in 1816, as he had assigned his holdings to his eldest son by
1808. In that year Richard VII sold his lease on the Moyge
estate to a Philip Nunan. The Griffith Survey recorded the
occupier of Moyge to be Phillip's grandson, a Maurice Newman. The
name Newman is another example of a Catholic Irish family adopting a
more common English spelling of their name. The house remained
in the family as the 1901 census shows the great house at Moyge
occupied by three unmarried RC and Irish-speaking sisters, Anna
Maria, Betsey and Mary Nunan ironically being cared for by one
servant, a Maggie Bowles.)

This John Bowles, his grandson, has the only undocumented line due to his disownment from the Friend's faith. See The Bowles of Killenaule and Woodhouse Connections for a discussion of those connections and a potential family tree which would connect this John Bowles to The Bowles of Killenaule. ****************** (note: the above section is purely speculative at this point) *************** 7.1.4 George Boles (See Friends References for the George Boles Family) m.
