Nash
The Nash family held an estate in the barony of Trughanacmy in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. In the 1830s, the Ordnance Survey Field Name Books mention Rev. Edward Nash leasing townlands from the Blennerhassett estate and he was also among the principal lessors in the parish of Ballyseedy, barony of Trughanacmy, at the time of Griffith's Valuation. Charles F. Nash was the proprietor of over 1500 acres in county Kerry as well as over 400 acres in county Cork and some lands in county Limerick in the 1870s.
