Crotty (Mountplunkett)
The Mountplunkett demense was in the possession of Richard Stuart Crotty by 1850. It was leased to Patrick Grehan from 1847 for 14 years. In February 1851 John Scott Molloy, assignee of Richard S. Crotty, advertised for sale Mountplunkett and the lands of Drumlish, barony of Roscommon. On the first occasion the sale was adjourned due to insufficient bidding. Patrick Grehan appears to have bought Crotty's interest.
