Ogle
In 1668, Nicholas Ogle was granted 722 acres in the barony of Delvin, county Westmeath. Members of this family married members of the Smythe family of Barbavilla, Pakenham of Carn and Evans of Rockfield. In 1743, John Gamble of Killooly Hall, King’s County (Offaly) married Elizabeth daughter of Nicholas Ogle of Grennastown. From 1757 Dysart became the family home. The house was designed by George Pentland for Henry Ogle. George Ogle was resident in the 1860s and in 1876 Robert Ogle of Dysart owned 186 acres in county Westmeath. Family members were living at Dysart and Ballynagall at the time of the 1911 census.
