Howards of Coultee

Tim,

Coultee is a townland in Tulla parish, as listed in the Tither Applotmenty Books at this link http://titheapplotmentbooks.nationalarchives.ie/search/tab/results.jsp?…. There is a townland Cloonteen in Tulla currently that could equate to the area? I note that Knockadoon is also in Tulla. Hope this is some help.

Best wishes, Kieran

Hi Tim:

Thank you for your message board post.  I am one of the local volunteers here in Tulla and I have just been alerted to your message.  Yes, the Howard family was in the Coultee area of Tulla.  This townland is located not too far from the village. The location is close to the Knockadoon townland, and was sometimes referred to as being part of Derrymore townland. 

It appears that Anne had several siblings and you will note these on the parish baptism register which has been transcribed and is available on the Clare Library website at this link:  https://www.clarelibrary.ie/eolas/coclare/places/tulla_parish.htm 

There are also several headstones for the Howard family of Rannagh on the Historic Graves website.  The link is here:  https://historicgraves.com/graves-search?field_name1_value_1=&field_surname1_value=Howard&field_year_d1_value_numeric=&field_year_d1_value_numeric_1=&field_inscription_value=&field_stonemason_value=&field_graveyard_ref_nid=26508&field_type_value=All&field_mt_property_one_value=

You will note that the townland of Rannagh is quite close to Derrymore, Coultee and Knockadoon.  I believe that these families were all connected at one time.

Please feel free to contact me at this email address:  tulla@irelandxo.com if you need further information.

Happy St. Patrick's Day to you!

 

All the best,

 

Jane
