ALEN OF ST. WOLSTANS.

P. 365, col. 1, 1. 4. Honora, daughter of General Alen, of St. Wolstans, who m. O'Grady, of Kilballyowen, was that gentleman's second wife, and had, with other issue, a son, STANDISH O'GRADY, grandfather

of STANDISH, present LORD GUILLAMORE (see family of O'Grady, of Kilballyowen). The present Colonel Alen's claim to a new creation, founded on the original baronetcy of St. Wolstans, is thus explained;

EDWARD ALEN (for an account of his progenitors, see p. 364) married Catherine, daughter of Sir John St. Leger, and had three sons, viz.

1. THOMAS, who became of St. Wolstans, but died without issue.

11. Francis, Master of the Rolls, whose grandson,

JOHN ALEN, esq. of St. Wolstans,
married a daughter of Lord
Slane, and had (with two other
sons, whose issue failed),

1. THOMAS, of St. Wolstans,
who was created a BARONET
in 1621, in consideration of
the great services rendered
to the State by Archbishop
Alen, but dying s. p. the
Baronetcy EXPIRED.
2. NICHOLAS, who eventually
inherited St. Wolstans. "As
government, in creating Sir
Thomas a Baronet, did," so
saith the patent,

but an

act of justice, considering the services of the Archbishop;" this Nicholas, who was related in the same degree to his grace, had precisely the same claim to the honour. His lineal and proved male descendant is the present

Lieutenant-Colonel LUKE ALEN, C.B. who has an only surviving son, LUKE-JOHN HENRY, a captain in the army.

1. John, the celebrated Archbishop of

Dublin, and Lord Chancellor of Ireland.

of eminence in the county of Kent,

ISTED of ECTON.

The following curious Descent (through the Baskervilles) of many eminent Families, from several of the Royal Houses of Europe, was compiled by Dr. Percy, the celebrated Bishop of Dromore, and is authenticated by incontestible proofs.

son,

PATRICK, served in the army of King WILLIAM at the battle of the Boyne, in which his father, a captain of horse, was slain, fighting on the opposite side. Having searched amongst the dead for his body, which he found and piously buried, he took the belt and pistols worn by him on that memorable day, his only inheritance, and accompanied Lord Inchiquin, under whom he had served, to the south of Ireland. Subsequently, on account of his family experiencing much favour from Henry Boyle, the first Earl of Shannon, and speaker of the Irish House of Commons, he obtained from that nobleman a lease of the lands of Knockave Castle Martyr, and afterwards, from his son, those of Ballendiness, on a lease of lives renewable for ever.
