[Name] [no name given]  
 

Edward Dalling Fitzgerald made his will in September 1815 and died soon after. In it, he left an annuity of £600 per annum to Sarah Genery and provided for the maintenance of his three reputed sons with Sarah Genery - Edward, Thomas and William. Kildare was to go to his eldest son at age 21 with payment of £10,000 to each subsequent son who reached the age of 21. However it is unlikely the sons saw any inheritance as the estate was already heavily indebted to Edward Dalling Fitzgerald's mother and to George Reid.
