Minchin (Annagh)
The Minchins of Annagh, county Tipperary, descend from John Minchin of Annagh and Castle Inch, county Kilkenny, fourth son of the original Charles Minchin of Annagh and Busherstown. Descendants of John married with members of the Greens of Old Abbey, county Limerick, Falkiners of Cork and the Gabbetts of Caherline, county Limerick.
