I do not have any information on the Pedigree you are seeking, but I do have some names from around that time. Perhaps someone will take on the job of putting family trees together.
"No less than 21 gentlemen of the Condons were outlawed in 1643, They comprised Richard and John of Ballydorgan; Richard, John and John mac Edmond gauragh of Ballymacpatrick; David, John and Maurice of Kilbarry (par. Clondullane); Edmond of Ballybeg, Edmund of Carrigane, Edmond of Turbeagh and James of Kildrum, all in Brigown parish; Maurice of Ballyarthur (par. Marshalstown); Maurice and Redmond of Ballybridock (? Ballybride, par. Knockmourne); James and Thomas of Aghelinske (?) in Brigown parish; John of Billeragh (par. Macroney); John of Curraheen (par. Kilgullane); John and Patrick of Carriganwory.
As the war drew to its close, in May 1652 rewards were offered for a number of Irish officers, including 200 pounds for Colonel John Condon (dead or alive). After the war a clean sweep was made of all the Condons and up to 10,000 plantation acres of theirs were confiscated. The only "titulado" left in 1659, after the Cromwellian plantations , was David Condon of Kilbarry, and he was no longer a landowner.
