Oh Wow  Thanks for that.
Now I know where it is.
I only know a little of its history but I have old photos to share if anyone would like them.

I presume its owned privately these days.

Hello,

I am a local amateur historian in Kilcoole and we would like to include a section on the history of Kilquade House in our revised history.

I see that several members of this thread found documents or photographs of the house. I would be delighted to see them and evaluate them for inclusion in our history.

Hi

There appears to be an Algeo connection as in the Will of Margaret Algeo of Dublin who died in 1863 refers to Livingston Thompson of Castlegrange, near Ashford, Co Wicklow, as Nephew of the deceased.  See:-

Yes that would be correct, by reading the letters of Mary Graves (1772-1860, the daughter of Admiral Sir Thomas Graves) to her aunts in Ireland, dated 26th March 1832, she says " I have just received the sad news of poor Mrs. Thompson's death from Livingstone and is her death likely to make any difference to Jane Thompson and Mary Ann. What has Mrs.T. left?, I hope she has left something to her sister in law. I suppose poor Maria must be consigned for education to that affected simpleton her aunt Algoe. What will the young men do. When will John T. be of age, how is the health of Maria and her brother."
