I am trying to work out just who John Falkiner of Prospect is, and whether he is the same man as John Falkiner of Willsborough ?
I am also trying to find out if he had more than one wife.
I am interested in the John Falkiner who was the father of
Daniel Richard (born about 1811?)
Frederick Edward (born about 1820?) who married (in Australia) Fanny Gale from Carlow.
Rebecca Letitia (fourth daughter)
Henrietta Selina (youngest daughter)
He lived in Nenagh in 1823, at "Prospect" as given by
Directory: TIPPERARY, Names of the Inhabitants of Nenagh - 1823

Clare - thank you.
What I have found is that a number of the descendants of the Rev Richard Daniel Falkiner ended up in Australia, Canada, and New Zealand.
The genealogy of the eldest line is in Burkes Peerage, along with others.
