Butler (Garnavilla)
James Archer Butler JP, of Garanvilla, Cahir, county Tipperary, was the lessor of lands at Ballinadee, barony of East Carbery, county Cork, at the time of Griffith's Valuation. He also held land in the parish of Templeneiry, barony of Clanwilliam, county Tipperary. In May 1854, over 1800 acres of his estates in counties Cork (East Carbery) and Tipperary (barony of Clanwilliam) were offered for sale in the Encumbered Estates Court. Lot I Aherlow Castle was leased to the Reverend William Keane. The Moores of Moorefort appear to have purchased some of this estate.
