- Tradition says that treasure is hidden in Thomastown Castle which is situated near Tipperary town.
The Danes attacked the Castle and the occupants of it collected their valuables and gold and hid them.

Father Mathew was born in Thomastown itself.
A ghost was seen near the vaults in Thomastown Castle- Collector
