• Notes

  Francis Samuel Despard was born in 1840 or 1841, probably in County Kildare, the son of Philip Despard and Anna Poe. He was a member of the Royal Irish Constabulary and was posted to County Limerick. Records indicate he had at one time a wife from County Wicklow (though records for Lizzie Curlett show her father came from County Down). He retired from the constabulary on August 10, 1900 and died in Dublin in early 1914.
