Bolster
|
In the 19th century the Bolsters held land in the parish of Kilshannig, barony of Duhallow, county Cork, mainly from the Newman and Lombard estates. Beside Aldworth and Lombardstown, Bolster family members resided at Curraghbower and Dromaneen, both in the parish of Kilshannig. In March 1873 lands (545 acres) at Clonribbon, barony of Duhallow, belonging to William Crofts Bolster and Eliza Bolster, were advertised for sale. These lands were held under a fee farm grant from George Washington Brasier Creagh to Richard Bolster, dated 1867. Colonel Grove White's notes on Curraghbower include a genealogy of the Bolster family compiled by a family member.
