AYLWARD

Aylward Families in Glenmore Parish [DD Notebook 2, Interview of Nicholas Forristal, the Mill, of Graiguenakill, Glenmore in February 1970]

There are 5 townlands containing Aylwards: (1) Ballinclare (2) Parkstown; (3) Ballyfacey; (4) Newtown and (5) Gaiguenakill.

(1) Ballinclare–there are two Aylward families in Ballinclare (1a) Tom Aylward (where Sheehys later were). Tom Aylward married Judy Hennessey of the Rower. Willie Gorman’s sife, (of Ballycroney) was a niece of Judy Hennessay and they often visited Ballinclare. (1b) Ned Aylward (where Aylwards are at present.) This Ned Aylward was married to Johanna Phelan, of Ballyfacey (a sister of little Dinny Phelan) living where George Conners is now. George Conner’s wife, Bridie Aylward, is a grand-daughter of Joanna Aylward née Phelan who was born in the house. Bridie Conner, née Aylward’s brother Jimmy Aylward is in the place in Carrigcloney where their great-grandmother came out of.

(4) Newtown–Johnnie Aylward was the last of the male line in Newtown. He married Kitt Larecy, of Robinstown. He was a blacksmith and left Newtown. Eventually he became clerk of the chapel in Glenmore. He had a sister who married a Ryan. The Aylwards had left Newton before Nicky’s rememberance. When Nicky was a chap going to school Old Johnnie Aylward was a feeble old man of about 80 years. Another sister of old Johnnie Aylward was married to James (the Cooper) Dunphy of Ballyverneen.

(5) Graiguenakill–the Aylwards of Graiguenakill had 12 Irish acres and the house stood just at the cross in about 14 paces up from the new line. The haggard? was common land. No wall was built around it. Micky Barron built a gap into it from the top field after the wall was built. Nicky Forristal was only 7 years old when the wall was built. Tinkers used camp in it always. There was an old kiln also situated in it and people used to sleep in the kiln. The last of the Aylwards in Graiguenakill tried to sell the place to Micky Kelly’s father or grandfather for £5 and he wasn’t able to raise it. Jim Barron’s father, of Carrigcloney (where Phil Hynes is now) got it after Aylward left.

Late Miss Bridget Aylward—The death at her residence, Parkstown, Glenmore on Saturday 2nd of February, of Miss Bridget Aylward, created deep regret in her native district and throughout South Kilkenny and Waterford City where she was equally well and popularly known. A most gracious, kindly and charitable lady, she had endeared herself greatly to all who knew her for these and her other estimable traits, not the least of which was her sterling neighbourly qualities.

A member of a widely respected and much esteemed family, she was sister of Mrs. J.P. O’Donovan, Couse, Co. Waterford, and of the late Mr. William Aylward, who for many years carried on a grocery and licensed trade at the corner of O’Connell St. and Thomas St. in Waterford, in the premises now in the ownership of Mr. Harney.

Scally, Dublin; the Misses Bridget, Peggy, Nellie and Mary Aylward, Parkstown, and Mrs. Teresa Fitzgerald, London.

Followed by a very large and representative cortege, the remains were removed to Glenmore Parish Church, where Requiem Office and High Mass were offered up on Monday. The interment, at which sympathisers were again present in large numbers, was made immediately afterwards in the adjoining cemetery. Rev. Fr. Dunphy, C.C., who was celebrant of the High Mass, also officiated at the graveside. There were twelve priests in the choir.

DEATH OF MRS. M. AYLWARD—The death occurred at her residence, Lismatigue, Hugginstown, on Tuesday morning last, of Mrs. Johanna Aylward, after an illness of some weeks’ duration.

A poignant feature of her demise is the fact that they were only married last February, and the sympathy of a wide circle of friends will gout to the bereaved husband, parents and sister in the sad loss they have sustained. Her passing, at the comparatively early age of 30 years, is deeply and deservedly regretted in her native parish. The remains, accompanied by a large and representative attendance, were removed to Hugginstown Church on Wednesday evening, and interment took place in the adjoining cemetery on Thursday after Office and High Mass, on which the celebrant was Rev.

               DEATH OF MR. J. AYLWARD—The death occurred in Aut Even Hospital, Kilkenny, of Mr. Jack Aylward, Ballyfacey, Glenmore, at the comparatively early age of 45 years. Deceased, who had been ailing only a short time, was a well known figure in sporting circles in his native parish. 

He was Captain of the Ballyfacey tug-of-war team, and both on and off the field was a kindly, big hearted Irishman who was beloved by all his neighbours, friends and old comrades of sporting circles. He was an extensive farmer who combined capable business methods with considerable agricultural experience, which was at all time at the disposal of his neighbours any time his help and advice were sought.

The news of his demise evoked feelings of profound sorrow in his native parish which was accentuated by reason of the very brief illness which preceded it. The utmost sympathy will go out to the bereaved brothers and sisters in the sad bereavement they have sustained.

The funeral to Glenmore was the largest seen in the district for a considerable time and was a striking testimony to the popularity of the late Mr. Aylward and the widespread sorrow evoked by his untimely passing. Requiem Office and High Mass were offered up at Glenmore parish church, after which the intermet took place in the adjoining cemetery.
