  Freeman's Journal Tuesday 20 March 1838 p4: Assizes Intelligence, Queen's County
  MARYBOROUGH, FRIDAY, MARCH 16. — Judge Johnson entered the crown court this day at half-past nine o'clock, and immediately afterwards Philip Meredith was placed at the bar, charged with the murder of Peter Conway on the 11th of August last. This case excited very great interest, being the first of a number of similar cases, arising out of the last election, which came on for trial. The prisoner was a young man, and the son of a respectable landholder in the county; he was a Protestant and the deceased a Roman Catholic. After some challenging on the part of the prisoner, twelve Protestant jurors were sworn. Prison records online at Familysearch.org show that Philip was listed in the Maryborough Gaol in 1837, charged with "grievously wounding" Peter Conway.
  Nick Reddan, extracted from the Freeman's Journal, 23 April 1849: Phillip Meredith, Esq. of "Rary Valley" in the Queen's county, Rosenallis church to Isabella, daughter of C. Bailey Esq. of Cappalough, Queen's county, April 14. Marriage record indicates that Philip was a Gentleman farmer of Reary Valley, Rearymore Parish.

Jane Meredith

Parents

Biography

• Birth: About 1870; Queen's County, Ireland

• Death: 1913; Queen's County, Ireland

• Note: In 1901 Jane was unmarried and said to be 30 years old. However, her brother Jeremiah who we know was born in 1867 was said to be 28, so we can't be too certain about Jane's age unless a birth or baptism record is found. In 1911 her age was recorded as 39--she was still unmarried. Probably the Jane who died in 1913 aged 45 (Mountmellick District, vol. 3, p. 361).
