Hi,
My name is Ultan Cleary and I'm trying to find out more about my ancestor William Duckett, who held a Grand Lease in 1712 from the Petty-Fitzmaurice family of Gortalinny, County Kerry. This property is near Kenmare, which is about 30 miles from Killarney, so I would imagine the families are related, indeed my William may even be ancestor of yours!. William married Isabella Colclough of Duffry Hall Co Wexford, which leads me to suspect that William's ancestry may be from the Carlow or Waterford branches. I don't know his ancestry any further back than this, but he must have been born by 1694 at the latest - and possibly much earlier than this.
My William had a son, Colclough Duckett, who married Susanna Weare in 1746 and had a daughter, Susanna Duckett. I don't know if they had any more children but they may have had.
This information is probably not much good to you as it's before your Williams time, unfortunately.
Do you know anything about the general Duckett connection (if any) to the Carlow and Waterford Ducketts?
Best Regards
Ultan Cleary
