-------------------
old information, keep in case it is right after all:
There is a James Sloane in Ballymadeerfy who might be Bridget Cunningham's husband. The Cunninghams, I think, were from Ballymadeerfy. James occupied plots 2A and 2B from at least 1864 (Griffith's Valuation) to 1883 (Valuation Revision Books.) He then occupied plots 2Aa, 2B, and 6A from 1884 to 1900, when they passed into the hands of a Patrick Sloane. Patrick was the tenant until 1903. From that date onward he held the lands in fee until at least 1914. I didn't follow Patrick farther, he may be in the last Revision Book as well.
