Gotoon & Rutland area

Hi,

There is a Rutland street in Limerick city (Hunt museum area).

“Could be named after the Duke of Rutland, Lord Lieutenant, who, traveled to Limerick (State visit) in 1785.”

There is also a Rutland, townland name  in Carlow and Offaly, Ireland.

To help you further in your research the following information is provided (previously supplied by the Ireland XO office),

Deaths records for the time after 1911 are available from http://www.groireland.ie/research.htm Deaths registered in the island of Ireland between 1st January, 1864 and 31st December, 1921 inclusive and in Ireland (excluding Northern Ireland ) from 1922 onwards.

Hope this helps your further

Hello Mike

Thanks for your reply. I am rather confused about Rutland as my great grandfather's army records just said born Limerick & the 1911 census of wales where the family moved to says born Rutland. His parents were married in Hospital & Herbertstown, his father was born in Hospital & marriage cert says living in Gotoon. Killmallock was also mentioned. His mother Mary (Egan) was born in Rathannay.

Could Rutland be an error?
