I found a very interesting article in the Tipperary Vindicator August 05, 1848 about the above gentleman and several others who were arrested with him. I have a copy in a pdf file and will keep it until July 2015. If you email me at
clddbd007@yahoo.com I will send it to you
Hope this helps someone. I am not related but I just thought it was an interesting account.
