Shewbridge
In 1856 Anne Shewbridge was leasing a property in the townland of Gowil, parish of Lickmolassy, barony of Longford, to John Cunningham. Local sources suggest that a William Shewbridge served as a Church of Ireland curate in Portumna in the 1760s while genealogical sources note a marriage in 1779 between a Mary Eyre of Eyrecourt and a Mr. Shewbridge.
