Beatty (Clifford)
At the time of Griffith's Valuation Edward Beatty of Heathfield, county Wexford, held at least four townlands in the parish of Bridgetown, barony of Fermoy, county Cork. This property was probably leased by the Martins to Edward Beatty. Elizabeth Martin was married to David Beatty of Borodale, county Wexford, a brother of Edward Beatty. Hussey records David Beatty of Borodale, Enniscorthy, county Wexford, owning land in counties Wexford, Wicklow and Cork. The county Cork lands were valued at £300. In April 1879 the 722 acre estate of Edward Beatty deceased in the barony of Fermoy was advertised for sale by trustees. The estate was held on various leases from the Roberts family. http://webspace.webring.com/people/pr/richardhemery/newpage3.htm
