John D’Alton was educated at Trinity College Dublin and was an antiquarian, barrister, Irish historian, genealogist, and biographer. Digitised here are: -- IE TCD MS 2327/64, a letter from Catherine (Kate) to her husband, John. Written during Catherine’s stay at Clonmore in 1824, between ‘Monday 9th of August’ and ’Friday 12th August’. -- IE TCD MS 2327/87, a letter from John to his wife, Catherine (Kate). Written on the 5th and 6th of September 1819 (Mullingar and Kealtown).
