- (continued from previous page)Croft as I said before owneed all the land from Athnaslinga stream, Anglesboro, in the Co. Limerick and the barony of Cois Sléibhe (Coshlea) to the Glen of Aherlow in the Co. Tipperary. The Massys now got possession of this land as well. Croft had a steward from the North of Ireland named Handcock and he also left when Croft went. They had a herd also called Lowe and he came to live in Galbally, Co. Limerick, where he got a house from the Samsons ancestors of the present Samsons of Carrickaroche in the Galbally Parish Co. Limerick, Coshlea. One of the Samson family, Lieutenant Samson, was killed inside the Church of Galbally which stood in the Catholic Graveyard and the remains of which are still to be seen there. It appears he had concealed himself behind the high altar after the retreat from Aughrim and the game was given away to the soldiers.(continues on next page)
