Jamestown House was held by the O'Beirne family until the twentieth century though in 1894 Slater refers to it as the seat of Gilbert King, junior. In 1906 it was also valued at £40. It is still extant and occupied.

In 1906 it was in the possession of Lord Harlech (Ormsby Gore) and was valued at £33. The Ormsby Gore estate was eventually sold in 1924 and Derrycarne and about 80 acres were acquired by a Col. Kirkwood, a relative of the Kirkwood family of Woodbrook, county Roscommon. It changed hands again several times before being acquired by the Land Commission in 1952. The house was demolished shortly afterwards.
