McGaver
At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s, Nicholas McGaver was among the principal lessors in the parish of Killashee, barony of Moydow, County Longford. In the 1870s Hussey de Burgh recorded him as the owner of over 500 acres in the county. Family history sources suggest he served as the Coroner for County Longford.
