This 'chat' seems to refer to your Ryan family although it says that the father of Francis and Nathaniel is a Thomas Ryan, also other children mentioned as follows
"Family documents suggest that Thomas Ryan was either the owner or steward (probably the latter) of Whitegates. The nearest town was Nenagh. It appears that the farm was between Lough Derg and Nenagh. Thomas' children are listed as Francis (1783), an un-named female (1784) who apparently married John Maxwell Fletcher of Shannon Hall, Nathaniel (1785), Edward (1786) and John (1792). The children are listed as being born either at Whitegates, or in Killaloe Dioces."

This is an extensive history of the Ryans which focuses on Catherine Ryan daughter of Nathaniel Ryan who it says inherited the Stewardsip of the Whitegate Estate in 1808 upon the death of his father Phillip Ryan who had been the Steward there for many years. The Estate was in County Clare across Loche Derg from their ancestral home near Nenagh in Tipperary.
"Born in Tipperary, Ireland on 1750 to John Ryan and Susanna White. Philip Ryan married Abigail Fletcher and had 2 children. He passed away on 28 NOV 1808 in Castletownarra, Tipperary, Ireland." The sources for this info are not given.
