Fitzgerald (Ballykinealy)
The Fitzgeralds held the townland of Ballykinealy, parish of Kilmacdonogh, barony of Imokilly, county Cork, from Lord Ponsonby at the time of Griffith's Valuation. William Fitzgerald also held land in the nearby townland of Aghavine. The 329 acre estate of John Fitzgerald held under a lease for 5,000 years from the Earl of Cork to John Fitzredmond FitzGerald was advertised for sale. An affidavit of Michael Joseph Fitzgerald included in the rental traces the Fitzgeralds' possession of Ballykenelly for more than two centuries.
