Title: Finlay of Templeport Co Caven
Post by: tempogold on Monday 01 June 15 09:47 BST (UK)

In St Peters Church in Templeport there is a monument on the wall to George Finlay JP of Corr Ville House . He was born 1774  ( perhaps locally ?) and died on 23 Jan 1855. That is all I know but I am trying to trace the Finlay family from this area. I did find another gravestone inscription that may be linked. Anna Finlay age 31 who died 30 may 1851 wife of Francis Finlay of Woodville House. Is Francis a son ?
Would welcome any information about the Finlay family from this area.
Many Thanks.

It's a rather vague way to search, if you could reason/name you have to search in that area perhaps we could help with a particular family.

The Reverend George Alexander King Finlay (b 1858?)
http://www.bawnboy.com/stpeters-church/memorialspage/Rev-G-Finlay-Memorial.htm

(Strange his plaque is under George Finlay MP Corville died 1855)
It does say like his marriage record that he is the son of George Findlay but maybe a grandson???

George Alexander King Finlay had a widow Isabell C. Finlay his probate styles him as of Bawnboy but his tombstone as Corville. His will 1916:

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1942-23426-7116-17?cc=1921305

Down the bottom of the page there is also a will for Elizabeth Margaret Finlay widow, who may be related as her money goes to Isabell C.Finlay widow in 1916. Elizabeth died in 1879.

She was Isabel Cundell Dare (daughter of Arthur Newman Dare) according to her marriage 1898 in Duseldof Germany.
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:J4VK-5N3

In 1901 (The Reverend) George Alexander King Finlay was living in All Hallows Barking, London. Aged 43 born 1858. With Isabel Cardell (Cundell) b 1871 in Surrey Mortlake?

THE LATE JOHN FINLAY, ESQ., J.P.

On Saturday last, the 31st of March, John FINLAY, Esq., J.P., Brackley House, Bawnboy, closed his mortal career in the eightieth year of his age. At the time of his decease, Mr. Finlay was the senior U.P. of the County of Cavan. He was a member of the Grand Jury from the year 1827 till the Spring Assizes of 1870; when in consequence of ill-health he was obliged to retire from the more active duties of public life. He served as High Sheriff of the County Cavan in 1835; and he was Chairman of the Bawnboy Board of Guardians from the death of the late Perrot THORNTON, Esq., until compelled by failing health to retire in 1870. The late Mr. Finlay was a fine specimen of the country gentleman. He resided constantly on his property; a considerate and generous landlord; beloved by his tenantry and by all who had intercourse with him. He was an impartial and painstaking magistrate; faithful and efficient as a Grand Juror, and in the discharge of every public duty. Respected and beloved while living; his memory will long be gratefully and affectionately cherished not only by an attached tenantry but by many of every rank throughout the country.   http://www.irelandoldnews.com/Cavan/1877/APR.html

Linked to this family is a Thomas Finlay who was knighted at Dublin Castle March 1837--does anyone know how I can find out what this honour was for . He was High Sheriff in 1836 could that be linked. He was alive in 1862 . Still struggling to find his marriage and death. Discovered even more Finlays in the area than I thought but thanks to your help have made  a good start with this jigsaw.
Thanks

I notice when I google Sir Thomas Finlay he is " Sir Thomas Finlay of Bawnboy House, Bawnboy"

I found this list of landowners in County Cavan in the  1870's:

Finlay, Alfred (minor)            xxxx         Ballyshannon
   Finlay, Francis (minor)            xxxx         Corrville
   Finlay, Rev. George            Drumcar         Dunleer, co. Louth
   Finlay, John               Brackley House      Bawnboy
   Finlay, John               Kildallon      Ardlogher, co. Cavan
   Finlay, Maria               xxxx         xxxx
   Finlay, Sir Thos., Bart.  [Reps. Of]      xxxx         Hampstead-road, London
   Finlay, Robert               xxxx         xxxx

http://www.igp-web.com/IGPArchives/ire/cavan/censubs/landowners-cavan-d-h.txt

It might give further clues as to how the Finlays are linked together

I notice the Francis Finlay you mentioned was the owner of Corville as a minor.

Sir Thomas Finlay owned land Hampstead-road, London, given the families long service as politicians, I would say he was knighted for his work.

Have you looked for Sir Thomas on the English Census, maybe 1861,1871, 1881?

He may have married in England?

Post by: hallmark on Tuesday 02 June 15 12:00 BST (UK)

Not sure if these are same Finlays...  Alexander Finlay moved to Ireland from Scotland in 1568, settling in Co. Cavan.

---------------------------------------------------


Corkagh demesne was owned by the Finlay family, from about the mid eighteenth century. Their ancestor Alexander Finlay moved to Ireland from Scotland in 1568, settling in Co. Cavan.

Thomas Finlay (1710-1776) of Corkagh established a bank in Dublin, Thomas Finlay & Co. of Jervis Quay (now Ormonde Quay). Members of the Finlay family were active in the military and politics down through the years. Colonel John Finlay was an MP in the Irish House of Commons from 1776-1783. He was also a leader of the Uppercross Fusiliers. Colonel Finlay’s son, Thomas, was a Lieutenant Colonel in the County Dublin Light Infantry. His grandson Henry Thomas Finlay, born 1847 was a Lieutenant Colonel commanding the 5th Battalion of the Royal Dublin Fusiliers. His three sons followed family tradition by joining the army. Sadly, they were all killed in action, Francis in the South African Wars, and George and Robert in WWI. With the deaths of her three brothers, Henry Finlay’s eldest daughter Edith became the heir to Corkagh. In 1909, she married George Pomeroy Arthur Colley, bringing a new family name to Corkagh.

 DR. SINCLAIR FINLAY.

The death occurred at Sydney on Wednesday afternoon, after a long illness, of Dr. Sinclair Finlay, F.R.C.S.I., who for many years practised at Balmain and Hunter's Hill. Born 
at Brackney House, county Cavan, Ireland, Dr. Sinclair Finlay was a son of Mr. Francis Finlay, lawyer, of Corville, and brother of the Right. Rev. Dean Finlay.
 Coming to Australia 40 years ago, the late Dr. Sinclair was for 20 years Government Medical Officer of the Port Stephens district. The funeral at the Rand- wick Cemetery was conducted by Canon Cake- bread. Following out the express wishes of the deceased only his sons were present at the service. His wife, who died about two years ago, was a daughter of the late Captain Hubert Cook, and a granddaughter of Colonel Kenneth Cameron. The surviving sons are Mr. Fawcett Finlay (of Brisbane).
