Name Description
Graves (County Waterford & King's County) Robert Graves, MD, was among the principal lessors in the parish of Ardmore at the time of Griffith's Valuation. In the 1870s was recorded as owning over 900 acres in county Waterford but he had in fact died in 1853. His son, Lt.Col. William Grogan Graves, of Cloghan Castle, Banagher, King's County was the owner of over 927 acres in county Waterford as well as over 1800 acres in King's County.
Graves (Counties Cork & Waterford) Griffith's Valuation records Mrs Elina Greaves and others as the immediate lessors of townlands in the parish of Knockmourne, barony of Kinnatalloon, county Cork. This would appear to be Helena, daughter of the Reverend Charles Perceval, rector of Bruhenny, county Cork who, in 1806, married John Crosbie Graves. Mrs. Greaves was also in possession of property in the barony of Coshmore and Coshbride, county Waterford, in the early 1850s.
