Sir Thomas Prendergast, 1st Baronet
Brigadier-General Sir Thomas Prendergast, 1st Baronet ( 1660 – 11 September 1709) was an Irish politician and soldier. Early life He was the son of Thomas Prendergast (d. 1725) of Croane, County Limerick, a small Catholic landowner, and Eleanor Condon, daughter of Daniel Condon. Little is known of his early life. His family suffered greatly under Oliver Cromwell, and he is thought to have grown up in poverty. Jonathan Swift, who detested him, called him the son of a cottager who narrowly escaped being hanged for stealing cows. However, his friends esteemed him as a man of honour and ability. Career On 15 July 1699 he was created a baronet, of Gort, in the County of Galway. He received his baronetage for informing King William III of the Jacobite plot to ambush the King's coach at Turnham Green. The plot had been conceived by Sir George Barclay, who landed at Romney in January 1696 intent upon assassinating the King. Prendergast was called upon on Thursday 13 February 1696 ...

Liscartan
Liscartan (or Liscarton) (meaning "Cartan's Fort") is the county town of County Meath, and province of Leinster, Republic of Ireland. It is 2 three-quarters miles northwest of Navan, on the river Blackwater, and on the former mail road from Dublin to Enniskillen. History The name Liscartan has been translated as "Cartan's Fort", which likely indicates it was a defensive site from the 12th century. Some of the earliest references to Liscartan suggest that the lands were part of lands granted to the original Abbey in Navan by the O'Rourkes of Breffni.Wilde, William R.
