[James o leary]

Thanks Athacliath62. I think my best bet is the Rcb library in Dublin. I've been inSt Enochs churchyard in killinick to visit my grandfather and great grandfathers grave can't see any sign of the Rev George ross grave although his predecessors grave is visible there. Once again thank you so much for your help. Cheers Jim

The link to the page is : Lewis 1837, Iverus/Iverossa (links NOT working - reply #9)

Samuel Lewis's A Topographical Dictionary of Ireland (1837) for Iverus.
https://www.libraryireland.com/topog/I/Iverus-Kenry-Limerick.php

IVERUS, or IVEROSSA, a parish, in the barony of KENRY, county of LIMERICK, and province of MUNSTER, 3 miles (N.) from Askeaton, on the lower road to Limerick, and on the rivers Shannon and Deel; containing 1884 inhabitants. Its name is derived from Iverus, a Danish commander who sailed up the Shannon, in 824, with a powerful fleet, and after obtaining possession of Limerick founded a church here, on the spot where he had encamped at his debarkation. The parish comprises 2606 statute acres, as applotted under the tithe act: the land is very fertile, and in some places under an excellent system of cultivation. It is embellished with many elegant houses, the chief of which are Ballysteen, the residence of E. Westropp, Esq.; Miltown, of the Rev. A. Champagne; Ballynacourty, of T. E. Davenport, Esq.; Castle View, of H. Ross, Esq.; and Beigh, of the Rev. G. Maxwell; besides many good farm-houses, around which are flourishing orchards.

Thanks Kiltaglassan I wonder what 649 old pounds be worth now. His wife and stepchildren went to England after his death.
