I Believe that the Thomas Kilroy referred to was a brother of my Grandfather James Kilroy. I remember my aunts telling me of him and that he left Ireland having been sent to the market to sell some livestock. The proceeds of which he apparently used for his passage to Australia. The last that we heard was that he sent a number of cameo brooches to 9 or 10 of his Nieces (my elderly aunts). I may be in possesion of a photograph if it is the same Thomas Kilroy.
As a matter of interest my Father was Thomas Kilroy son of James Kilroy who is the landowner you refer to.
