Introduction to the McMasters of Kilkere

When I started looking into the McMaster family, I didn't know how many there were over the years. The main families that are known are the Clarkwood, Derreentunny, and Dromore Branches. However, there have been McMasters in Ballynarry, Cloughmine and of course in Kilkere. The connections to the early Kilkere McMasters can not be shown at this time for certain for a variety of reasons. Below is a link to the families that I could not connect. Below that is a recent map of the area. Clarkwood is the English name for Cuilnagleragh.

John McMaster of Kilkere and Some Descendents

The following is an account of some of the family of the mother of James Archibald Frazer (my great-grandfather). The McMasters, like the Frazers and many other Irish families were split between those seeking their fortunes outside of Ireland and those who chose to stay. I am sure the process of leaving your home country was difficult as was staying under difficult conditions when friends and family were leaving. This is the first family I have researched where my ancestor in that family did not emmigrate to the United States. The McMasters appear to have backgrounds in common with the Frazers. They both were farmers for the most part, originated in Scotland, apparently, settled in a similar area of Ireland at an early date, and belonged to the Church of Ireland.

I am quite sure of the information beginning in Generation Five. Before that, the connections are less sure and there are people we know of with the McMaster surname who have not been placed yet. As in most genealogies, much mystery remains and many questions await to be answered.

Generation One

•     2.  i.   ACHIBALD² was born circa 1730. He married A. Briton.

John is the first known McMaster of note in the Kilmactranny area. The earliest McMaster of record in the Kilmactranny area obtained a lease in Kilcere in 1734. This was probably leased to the father or uncle of the above John McMaster. The next one mentioned in the lease is Abraham in 1792. In 1792 Abraham was 77 and he would have been born about 1715. He was mentioned as the third life of the three life lease. Perhaps he was the brother of the John above. Assuming that the lease of 1812 followed Abraham's death, that would have made him nearly 97 when he died. The Dundas Estate Rentals referred to in the 1998 Hibernian Report on the McMasters also shows an Abraham McMaster as tenant of the property in 1804. Whether this Abraham is the same as the one in 1792 (or even the one in 1812!) is unclear.

The Elphin Census of 1749 mention a John McMaster, farmer with 2 children under 14 and 3 over 14 living at Kilcere. Also a Hugh McMaster is mentioned who is a laborer with 1 child under 14. The Abraham mentioned above is likely the only one of the children of John now identified. The child of Hugh is not identified.

It is likely that all the McMasters in the neighboring Townlands descendended from McMasters of Kilkere.

Generation Two

•     3.  i.   ABRAHAM³ was born circa 1764. He married Margery (--?--). He was buried on 4 Apr 1829 at Kilmactranny Church, Sligo, Ireland.

Arthur Livingstone was able to find an early deed dated June 7, 1812. That deed leases the Town Land of "Kilkear"

"... unto the said William McMaster his Heirs and Assigns from the day of the decease of Abraham McMaster the present Tenant for and during the term of twenty one years from Thence then next ensuing for the natural life of Abraham McMaster aged years Son of Abraham McMaster the younger and cousin of the said Wiliam McMaster at the yearly rent of ninety pounds..."

From the above leasee we learn some several things and may imply some others.

• There appear to be three Abrahams mentioned in the lease. These were probably the three lives ususally mentioned in a deed.
  • Abraham the present tenant
  • Abraham the younger. He does not fit nicely with the people mentioned below. He may have been the Abraham born 1764. This means he would have had his son Abraham at age 43 which is not unlikely.
  • Abraham the son of Abraham the younger born about 1809. Unfortunately, I have no other record of an Abraham McMaster born around 1809 (see below).
• Possible implications
• William was a cousin of the Abraham b. about 1809. Cousin at that time generally meant nephew. This would likely mean that William was the brother of Abraham the younger.
• William likely had no male offspring at this time or he would have more likely been mentioned in the lease(?) Or Abraham was younger than his children and that would make the lease last longer?
• Abraham the present Tenant could have been the father of both William and Abraham the younger. Or an older cousin or uncle.

It is not clear to me whether prior to 1858, Kilcere included Cuilnaghlerah where my ancestors lived. Cuilnaghlerah is to the South of Kilcare (current spelling). There was apparently an ancient Church in Kilcare. Kil refers to Church and ruins are shown on maps to the North of the Townland. The Tithe Applotment lists a Parish of Kilcare under the Parish of Kilmactranny. In the Tithe Applotment of 1824, the Kilcare McMasters included Wm McMaster & Co., Abr'm McMaster & Co and Jas. Middleton & Arch. McMaster. There are now a Robert and John McMaster listed in Drummore to the East of Kilcare.

The groupings in the 1824 Tithe Applotment of Kilcare are as follows:

William McMaster & Co.	33 acres
Abraham McMaster & Co.	12 acres
Archy Hare(?) & Co.	10 acres
Thomas Boyd Widow McMaster John Thompson Matthew Noone	21 acres This is probably The John Thompson who married Eliza McMaster in 1804
William McMaster (Sr.?) Archy Hure (?) Owen Fowley John Thompson James Gaffiny (?)	11 acres
John Middleton Archibald McMaster	82 acres

It appears that those McMasters listed could have been of the age or younger of Abraham McMaster (generation 3). The children of Abraham may have been too young to be considered the main occupiers of the land inf the 1824 Tithe Applotment. James Middlemton may have been related by marriage to the McMasters.

The parents of Fanny McMaster are better documented than James. His parents are listed by way of tradition. The agnomen Senior attached to his name seems not to distinguish him from his son, but from another James McMaster (Probably his nephew - See #8) who owned land at the time of Griffith's Valuation. Legend was that James was considerably older than Fanny. People have heard of others seeing pictures of this couple, but I am unaware of any photographs surviving. Fanny's father William is perhaps the same "Wm McMaster & Co." listed in the Tithe Applotment.

•     17.  i.   CATHERINE⁵ was born on 14 Feb 1829. She married Arthur McMaster, son of John McMaster and Ann Shannon, on 17 Feb 1848 at Kilmactranny Church of Ireland, Sligo, Ireland. She was buried on 24 Dec 1903 at Kilmactranny Church of Ireland, Sligo.


•       ii.   ELIZABETH was born circa 1833. She married Michael Meehan in May 1859 at Liverpool.
  According to Michelle Haeusler,
  
  "Here is a section of my family history written by my grand father's cousin in 1978.
  
  "Michael Meehan was born in 1830 at Highwood, parish of Kilmactranny, five miles from the town of Boyle in County Sligo. His father was John Meehan and his mother was Bridget (Brigid) Devine. . . . The story is that Michael's parents were arranging a marriage for him . . . However, Michael had different ideas having fallen in love with Elizabeth McMaster, daughter of Archiblad McMaster and Elizabeth Mitchell. Elizabeth had no dowry and to make matters worse she was a Protestant so there was violent opposition from the family. Th upshot of it was that Michael and Elizabeth elpoed one night in May 1859. They were married in Liverpool . . . they set sail for Australia, in a cargo vessel, "the Zoboe'. They were three months at sea, arriving in Australia about September 1st and disembarked at Geelong."
  
  Apparently neither church would marry them in Ireland so they married in England.".
  


•     18.  iii.   ARCHIBALD was born circa 1838. He married Sarah Higgins on 10 Aug 1865 at Screen Church, Sligo. He was buried on 16 Jun 1895 at Kilmactranny Church of Ireland, Sligo.


•       iv.   MARGERY was born circa 1839. She married Archibald McPherson on 12 Apr 1864 at near Meredith, Victoria, Australia.


•       v.   MARY ANNE was baptized on 8 Sep 1844 at Church of Ireland, Sligo, Ireland.


•       vi.   HENRY was baptized on 14 Feb 1847 at Church of Ireland, Sligo, Ireland.


•       vii.   SAMUEL was born on 18 Jan 1853 at Ireland. He was baptized on 13 Mar 1853 at Church of Ireland, Sligo, Ireland. He died on 28 Dec 1945 at New Zealand at age 92.
  He emigrated in 1876. He was retired in 1917.

Some additional information on this family from Anne West, January 10, 2010:

• I am a descendent of Archibald McMaster (1809) and Elizabeth Mitchell, through their son Thomas (c1841).

  Thomas emigrated from Co. Sligo to Australia 1863 on the 'Greyhound', and subsequently settled in Auckland, New Zealand (late 1860s, can't pinpoint exact date). He was a prominent businessman , a draper. Married Alice Harriet Cotterell. Thomas died 19 June 1917 in Auckland, I have a copy of his death certificate. His daughter Alice Ethel McMaster (1877) was my paternal grandmother.

From Lachlan Rutherford on Genforum November 23, 2004:

• Further, I have some information re a Samuel McMaster, born Sligo, who died aged 92 in New Zealand on 28.12.1945.
  His year of birth would be 1853.

  This Samuel migrated to New Zealand in 1876 in the ship "Merwanjee Framjee". He worked in or even part owned the Auckland drapers, "McMaster & Shalders" together with his brother or cousin, Thomas McMaster also born Sligo. Samuel retired in 1914. Thomas McMaster died in 1917 with issue.

  Samuel McMaster married Margaret Percy in 1884. They had at least two daughters, Eliza Marion 1885 and Hazel Irene 1890.

  Both Samuel and Thomas have descendants in New Zealand.
