Another branch was apparently settled in Dublin, but I am unable to connect them to the Westmeath family. They are as follows :

3. Anne Delamar, who married Pierce Nugent and had issue.

4. Bridget Delamar, who married her cousin Mark Lacy ; see ante.

5. Mary Delamar, who married James Neville of Lissgobbin, co. Roscommon, and had a daughter Bridget.

Lodge's MS. in the British Museum Library, Add. MS. 23693, contains the fol- lowing references to the Delamars, but I am unable to connect them to the foregoing :

Walter Delamar of Ballynefid, co. Westmeath (died Jan. 10, 1616), married Marion Nugent and had issue a son William Delamar (d.v.p.), who married Anne Nugent, and had a son Richard Nugent Delamar, aged 24 at his father's death.

Richard Nugent of Robinstown (died 1703, aged 105). By his wife Mary Gernon had a daughter Alice Nugent, who married Edward Delamar.

Garrett Delamare of Garden, co. Roscommon, married, December, 1742, Isabella Begg of Kilkillan, near Athboy.

The will of Nicholas Coyne of Dublin, dated April 20, 1761, has no reference to any children : he was the son of John Coyne of Lacken, co. Westmeath (copy of whose will I have), and is the only Nicholas Coyne I have so far been able to trace.

I shall be glad if. any reader of ' N. & Q.' can give such further details regarding this family as will enable me to link up those I have quoted, and also trace their de- scendants to the present day.

Fortunately, she said that she should, and so we have the record of a very strange padinoddy, as they render the word in West Yorkshire, in ' Home Life in Italy ' (pp. 313-
