| Histories |  | Cotter Manuscript Manuscript 711 from the National Library of Ireland This manuscript, which relates the history of the Cotter family over several generations, may be the manuscript referred to by G. de P. Cotter, Sc.D. (Dublin) in his edited version of a Cotter family history written by Rev. Charles Purcell Cotter. The main source of information for Rev. Cotter's work was a "manuscript book partly in Irish and partly in English, which was, at the time of his writing the history, in the possession of Sir James L. Cotter, fourth Baronet, of Rockforest". G. de P. Cotter goes on to say that "the present whereabouts of the manuscript alluded to by Mr. C.P. Cotter as 'Family MS.' is unknown to me. Some years ago I was told by the late William Cotter Stubbs, Barrister-at-Law, Dublin (son of the late Rev. J.W. Stubbs, F.T.C.D., Trinity College, Dublin, who married Catharine Louisa, daughter of the Rev. Joseph Rogerson Cotter, formerly Rector of Donoughmore, Co. Cork...) that, when Rockforest was sold by the late Sir J.L. cotter, fifth Baronet, in 1916, the library and furniture were auctioned off. Amongst the books sold was, he said, one MS. book, partly in Irish and partly in English, which was bought by a gentleman whose name I never ascertained, but who held some Government appointment in Dublin." |
