Death*She died at an early age.1 
Court ActionIn the marriage settlement of Mary Anne's and Charlotte's mother, Catherine Kelly, to Ralph Hinds, there was a clause charging £1000 for each of the daughters on the Mulhussey property. After the death of Mary Anne, this money was recovered by Charlotte, who inherited her sister's portion. After the Court of Chancery directed that part of the property be sold, to pay this money, Charlotte bought land that had belonged to her father and was situated near Killeshandra in the townlands of Toberlyan and Mulrick.1 
(Daughter) Burial Following her father's death in 1848, Mary Anne's sister Charlotte, erected a monument at St. Jerome Cemetery in Dublin in her father's and sister's memory. It stands close to the entrance gate of the cemetery and is inscribed with the names of Ralph Hinds and Mary Anne Hinds. The date on the monument is not correct for Ralph's death, and may be the date Charlotte's mother died in 1817 and/or the date of Mary Anne's death.1

Birth*circa 1799Mary Anne Martha Hinds was born circa 1799.1 
(Sister) ResidenceMary Anne Martha Hinds lived with her mother, Jane (Smith) Hinds, and brother, Walter Hinds Esq., at Portland Place, Dublin, at the time her marriage settlement was signed in September 1817.2 
Marriage Settlement*15 September 1817 On 15 September 1817 James Ellis of Summerhill, County Meath, and his bride-to-be, Mary Anne Martha Hinds, spinster of Portland Place in the City and County of Dublin, were participants in a Memorial Deed of Marriage Settlement agreement. Others participating in the settlement included Jane Hinds of Portland Place, Dublin, a widow and the mother of Mary Anne Martha Hinds, Walter Thomas Hinds Esq., also of Portland Place, Dublin, the son of Jane Hinds and brother of Mary Anne Martha Hinds and William Smith Esq. of Laracor in the County of Meath.

The Memorial deed recited that a marriage had been agreed upon and was soon intended to occur between James Ellis and Mary Anne Martha Hinds and that James Ellis was entitled under the will of his uncle John Cade late of Leadenhall Street in the City of London, a Merchant deceased, to the sum of £700 payable upon the death of his mother, Mary Cade, otherwise Ellis, and that that sum was at that time invested at 4 percent compounding in the Bank of Ireland in the name of John Robinson of Leadenhall Street, a Merchant, as a Trustee for James and his mother. It further recited that Jane Hinds, the mother of Mary Anne Martha Hinds, had agreed to give her daughter a fortune of £500 and that it had been agreed by James Ellis, Mary Anne Martha Hinds and Jane Hinds upon the surety of the intended marriage that the sum of £700 should be assigned to and vested with Walter Thomas Hinds Esq. and William Smith Esq. and that the sum of £500 should be paid to Walter Thomas Hinds and William Smith as Trustees for the specific intents and purposes outlined in the agreement.

James Ellis, in consideration of the marriage, had agreed that Mary Anne Martha Hinds, in case she should survive him after their marriage had been solemnized, should have, hold and enjoy during the term of her natural life all the Estate, Real, freehold and personal, he owned or was entitled to at the time of his death. Jane Hinds, with the agreement of James Ellis, had already paid to Walter Thomas Hinds and William Smith, as Trustees, her portion of £500 and it was therefore established that James Ellis and Jane Hinds had each vested their sums of £700 and £500 with the Trustees for the following Trusts: the sum of £700 in Trust for James Ellis, his Executors, Administrators and assigns until the said intended marriage should be duly had and solemnized; and the sum of £500 held in trust for Jane Hinds, her Executors, Administrators and assigns until the intended marriage should be dully had and solemnized. Then, from and immediately after the solemnization of the intended marriage, the two sums of £700 and £500, with Walter Thomas Hinds and William Smith as Trustees, and the survivor of them, and the heirs, Executors, Administrators and assigns of such survivor, were to invest the sum of five hundred pounds in Government or other good and rated security with the prior written approval of James Ellis and Mary Anne Martha Hinds, and that they were to permit James Ellis and his assigns during the time of his natural Life to have, receive and take for his own proper use and behalf all the dividends, interest and other profits which should during his natural life accrue, arise, be made by or from the two sums of £700 and £500 or any portion of them and from and immediately after the death of James Ellis, in case Mary Anne Martha Hinds should survive her husband, the Trustees were to permit Mary Anne Martha Hinds and her assigns during her natural Life to receive and take for her own use, all the dividends interest and other profits which should during her life accrue, arise or be made by or from the two sums of £700 and £500 or any portion of them.

After the deaths of both James Ellis and Mary Anne Martha Hinds, the Trustees, heirs, Executors, Administrators and assigns were to transfer, assign, pay, apply or dispose of all the several sums or parcels of stock and all the dividends, interest and other profits thereof to each and every of the sons and daughters lawfully to be begotten of James Ellis upon the body of Martha Hinds and the children of such sons or daughters in case any of them should be then dead leaving issue in equal shares and proportions, and if but one, wholly to that one. But the child or children of such sons or daughters as should then happen to be dead, should be entitled only to the share which his, her or their father and mother would have been entitled to if living; equally to be divided amongst such children if there be more than one and if but one, wholly to that one. In case Mary Anne Martha Hinds should survive James Ellis, and should not have any issue of their marriage living at the time of his death, or that having issue or being pregnant and that such issue should die unmarried in the lifetime of Mary Anne Martha Hinds, the Trustees, or the survivor of them, their or either of their Executors, Administrators or assigns were to transfer, assign and pay over to Mary Anne Martha Hinds or her assigns the several sums of money or stock and all the dividends, interest and other profits thereof, and of any part thereof, to her for her sole and separate use forever growing, arising or accruing from or out of the properties involved for and during the term of her natural life.

Following her death, and from and after the determination of the marriage settlement Estate then in Trust, the trustees were to pay, apply, dispose and divide the Estate in such manner as James Ellis should have directed, limited or appointed in writing, by his last will and Testament. Or, for want of such appointment, then the several sums of £700 and £500 were to descend to the next of kin of James Ellis, and if that were the case, the deed contained a Covenant permitting the Trustees, with the consent of James Ellis and Mary Anne Martha Hinds, to invest the several sums in other Securities to accrue to the Trustees and the deed also contained a clause that one Trustee should not be answerable for the act of the other.

The deed together with the memorial was witnessed, signed, sealed and delivered by James Ellis and Jane Hinds in the presence of William Wildrige and George Canall. William Wildrige, under oath, stated that he was a witness to the deed of which the above writing was intended to be a memorial and saw the same duly executed by James Ellis, Mary Anne Martha Hinds, Jane Hinds and Walter Thomas Hinds and also saw the above Memorial duly executed by the above named James Ellis and Jane Hinds and that he, William Wildrige, as a witness to the deed and memorial verified the participants' names and handwriting and stated he delivered the deed and Memorial to Francis Armstrong Esq., Deputy Register, at the Four Courts, Dublin at or near the hour of 2 o'clock in the afternoon of the 15th day of September Inst. Sworn by William Wildrige this 15th day of Sept 1817, and signed by Francis Armstrong DR.2

Birth*1763Matthew Hinds was born about 1763 in County Meath, Ireland.1 
EducationMatthew's early education was provided by a private tutor named Mr. Kerr.2 
(Son) ResidenceGrowing up with his parents and siblings, Matthew lived primarily at Mulhussey Castle, County Meath, Ireland.3
Education*15 June 1780He was identified as the son of Ralph when he entered Trinity College, University of Dublin, as a pensioner on 15 June 1780 at age 16. His field of study was Agricola, or farming. (According to the Alumni publication and a Latin dictionary, a Pensioner at that time was a student who paid a fixed sum annually.)1,4 
Relationship Note*In the Marriage Settlement of his brother, John Hinds, Matthew Hinds was identified as the second son of Ralph Hinds of Mulhussey.5 
Marriage License5 January 1784A marriage license was issued to Matthew Hinds and Sarah Gerrard in Dublin, Ireland, on 5 January 1784. The license stated that Matthew "Hynds" of Mulhussey, County Meath, a Gentleman, and Sarah Gerrard of Dublin, a Spinster, were to be married in the Dublin parish of St. Thomas.6 
Marriage Settlement*3 February 1784 On 3 February 1784, Ralph Hinds of Mulhussey, County Meath, Esq. of the first part, his second son Matthew Hinds and Sarah Gerrard, spinster and one of the daughters of William Gerrard of Dormstown, in the County of Meath Esq. of the second part, the said William Gerrard of the third part, and his nephew William Gerrard of Liscartan in the County of Meath Esq. and Thomas Hinds of the City of Dublin Esq. of the fourth part, made a Memorial of Indentured Deed of Release. After first reciting that Ralph Hinds was seized in fee simple of (owned unconditionally) the different lands contained in the deed, and also reciting that a marriage was intended to be thereby had between Matthew Hinds and Sarah Gerrard, the Deed of Release identified the portions of his lands Ralph was agreeing to give in trust for the benefit of his son Matthew Hinds and his wife Sarah Gerrard with Sarah's cousin William Gerrard of Liscartan and Matthew's brother Thomas Hinds as trustees. Ralph Hinds first granted, bargained, sold, released and confirmed to William Gerrard and Thomas Hinds the towns and lands of Ned, Cornagee, the part of Toberlyan called Duffin, and Mulrick, situated, lying and being in the County of Cavan, with all and singular their appurtenances. Thomas Hinds and William Gerrard as trustees, their heirs and assigns, were to hold the said lands and premises thereby granted and released, with the appurtenances, to their own use and maintenance, and partially, after the marriage of Matthew and Sarah, to the use of Matthew and his assigns during his life. And from and after his death, to the use of the said trustees for five hundred years; to the use of the first son of Matthew by Sarah and the heirs of such first son; in default thereof to the use of the second, third, fourth and all and every son and sons of Matthew by Sarah, successively, one after another in seniority of the heirs of all and every such son and sons, such sons of the heirs of his body to be preferred. With no such issue, the lands were to default back to the use of Ralph Hinds, his heirs and assigns forever. And, concerning the said five hundred years to the Trustees to support the other contingent premises and for the other purposes therein and partially upon trust. In case the said Sarah Gerrard should survive the said Matthew Hinds and there should be no issue of their marriage living at his decease or if any issue and the same should die before the age of twenty-one, the Trust was to pay or to authorize said Sarah and her assigns to receive out of the rents and profits from the said lands included in this Grant and Release, a yearly annuity rent charge of £100 during her natural life for her and their own use and benefit; and in case Sarah should survive Matthew, and there be living issue at his decease, then and so long as the said children lived, the Trust was to pay or to authorize Sarah to receive out of the rents and profits from the said lands an annual annuity rent charge of £70, in lieu of the said annuity of £100, during her natural life. Sarah's annual annuity, whichever it turned out to be, was to be paid half yearly on the first of November and the first of May by equal portions without deductions. The first payment was to be made on such of the said days which shall first happen next after the decease of Matthew Hinds, with a power for Sarah and her assigns to distrain (seize for payment of the debt); and in case there should be an eldest son and one or more other child or children of Matthew Hinds on the body of Sarah Gerrard to be begotten, or in case there should not be any son of the intended marriage and all their issue should be a daughter or daughters, then William Gerrard of Liscartan and Thomas Hinds, their executors, administrators and assigns, should by sale or mortgage during the said term of five hundred years, levy or borrow £1,000 for the portion or portions of the other child or children and pay or make over the said sum among the child or children other than an eldest or only son in such shares or proportions as Matthew Hinds by deed or by his last will should appoint. The Deed of Release and Memorial was signed and sealed by all parties and witnessed by Edward King of the City of Dublin Gentleman and Christian Jordan, Writing Clerk on 04 February 1784, and registered the same day.7 
Marriage*February 1784He married Sarah Gerrard, daughter of William Gerrard and Anne Cosby.6 
(Son-in-Law) Will24 December 1788Matthew received a legacy in the will of his father-in-law, William Gerrard, dated 24 December 1788 at Dormstown, County Meath.8,9,10 
(Heir) Will15 April 1794Matthew's father, Ralph Hinds of Kimmins Mill, County Meath, left a will dated 15 April 1794 and proved on 10 May 1794. His estate was quite large. He named eighteen beneficiaries, including Walter Hinds, Ralph Hinds, Walter Hinds, Anne Hinds, Richard Stephens, Esther (Cannon) Hinds, Matthew Hinds, Thomas Hinds, Alexander Hinds, Mary (Hinds) Walsh, Michael Walsh, Clarissa (Hinds) Stephens, Martha (Hinds) Matthews, Eleanor (Hinds) Smith, Hester (Hinds) Dunn, Hester Stephens, Clarissa Stephens and Mary Anne Stephens. It appears from reading the will that he put much of his estate into a trust or series of trusts, with Thomas Berry and Alexander Berry as trustees, for the purpose of perpetuating the Hinds legacy for eternity. The order of succession was designed to be (1) Walter Hinds, eldest son; (2) Ralph Hinds, fourth son; (3) Walter Hinds, nephew and son-in-law, husband of daughter Anne Hinds; and (4) Richard Stephens, his grandson.

In his will, Ralph confirmed the settlement of marriage he had previously executed for his second son, Matthew Hinds and his wife, Sarah (Gerrard) Hinds, and the uses and trusts and covenants mentioned in that agreement.11 
(Beneficiary) Deed Memorial2 May 1795A memorial of a deed of lease and release dated 1 and 2 May 1795 was made between James Walsh of the city of Dublin, gardener, and his wife Mary (Hinds) Walsh of the one part, and Robert Wilson of Newtown in the county of Meath, gentleman, of the other part. Reciting as therein is recited and witnessed that James Walsh and Mary Walsh otherwise Hinds, for the considerations therein mentioned, did assign and make over unto Robert Wilson all that, that part of the town and lands of Stradbally and Thorntown lying on the south side of the road leading from Kilsallaghan to Grange containing one house and 52 acres, 3 roods and 10 perches, with the appurtenances, situate in the county of Dublin. To hold to Robert Wilson, his heirs and assigns, during the lives of Matthew Hinds and Thomas Hinds, who we suspect were Mary's brothers, provided Mary Walsh shall so live. The signed and witnessed deed was recorded on 4 May 1795.12 
Residence*Sarah and Matthew Hinds resided in Trim, County Meath.13 
Deathbefore 1809He died in or before 1809, the year Matthew Hinds, husband of Sarah (Gerrard) Hinds, was described in a judgment in the Court of Common Pleas as "since dead, leaving Sarah a widow and three children...all of whom had attained their respective ages of 21 years."10

RelationshipsGreat-grandson of John Hinds
Father of Walter Hinds
ChartsDescendants of John Hinds, including our Walters and Ralphs
Father*Walter Hinds b. 1703, d. Sep 1777
Mother*Martha Faris d. 1779
Name-DescriptiveThe descriptive name we have used to clarify the identification of this Ralph Hinds, as we attempted to place him correctly within the Hinds family, was Ralph Hinds (1741-1794) of Mulhussey, although he was also of Kimmis, County Meath.1 
Birth*1741He was born in 1741.1 
(Nephew) Deed Memorial6 October 1748Ralph was mentioned as the one of the three lives of succession in an indented deed of lease dated 6 October 1748 which was made between his uncle John Hinds of Kilmainham in the county of Cavan Gentleman and John Maxwell of Farnham in the same county Esq. Whereby the said John Maxwell did devise, and let to farm, set unto the said John Hinds the town and lands of Clare in the parish of Denn and County of Cavan. Ralph was named as the second life.2 
Freehold Estate*Ralph Hinds (1741-1794) of Mulhussey received his property in the towns and lands of Carrigan, Cargagh, and "Coghs" in County Cavan, Ireland, as a Freehold Estate, from the late John Maxwell, the Lord Farnham, Baron.3 
Marriage*between January 1760 and February 1760Ralph Hinds Esquire of Old Castle, County Meath, Ireland, married Esther Cannon, daughter of ______ Cannon, between January 1760 and February 1760. The couple had at least ten children, whose order of birth has not yet been learned.3,4 
(Heir) Will21 September 1766Ralph's uncle, John Hinds of Kilmainham, County Cavan, Ireland, left a will dated 21 September 1766 and proven on 7 Feb 1769 naming the following beneficiaries: Mary (Hinds) Stephens, Mary (Hinds) Clarke, Ralph Clarke, Mary Anne Clarke, Catherine (Clarke) Stephens, Anthony Clarke, Walter Hinds, John Hinds, Thomas Hinds, William Hinds, Margaret Hinds, Richard Booth, George Hinds, Thomas Hinds, Ralph Hinds, John Hinds, Margaret Latterton, William Latterton, Mary Latterton, George Grahams, Robert Forster Shields and Jane Trimble.

To his nephew Ralph Hinds, he gave all of his stock of cattle on his land in Kilmainham (except for the two cows he gave to Mary Latterton) and, after the payment of all his other desired legacies and his lawful debts, the remainder of his estate was to be divided equally between his brother Thomas Hinds and his nephew Ralph Hinds, whom he also nominated, constituted and appointed to be his Executors.5 
ResidenceRalph and his family lived primarily at Mulhussey Castle, County Meath, Ireland.6
Relationship NoteA father-daughter relationship between Ralph Hinds (1741-1794) of Mulhussey and Mary (Hinds) Walsh has not been clearly identified, although evidence has us suspecting that was the case. If not his daughter, she was a member of his extended family -- possibly an aunt or a cousin, living in his household. Ralph's will described her as his servant, and her husband, who was a gardener, was also in his employ. Ralph's bequests to Mary included land and almost all of his household furniture.3,7 
(Heir) Will18 July 1778Ralph's father, Walter Hinds (1703-1777) of Corrakane, left a will dated 5 Aug 1777 and proved on 18 July 1778, naming the following beneficiaries: Martha (Faris) Hinds, Ralph Hinds, Walter Hinds, John Hinds, William Hinds, Thomas Hinds, Anne Hinds and Mary (Hinds) Clarke.

To Ralph, his eldest son, he gave the lands of Toberlyan, Mulrick and Duffin and the responsibility to pay his (Ralph's) brother John an annual income of £40. Also to Ralph, and to his heirs forever, the lands of Ned and Cornagee, and £1000 to be paid out of his father's effects together with two score (40) of the best bullocks (castrated bulls, also known as oxen or steers) on the lands which he was instructed to enjoy after his father's decease.8,9,1 
Relationship Note*In the Marriage Settlement of his daughter, Clarissa Hinds, she was identified as his eldest daughter.10 
(Biological Father) Relationship NoteIn the Marriage Settlement of his son, John Hinds, who was identified as Ralph's third son, Matthew Hinds was identified as his second son.11 
Marriage Settlement3 February 1784 On 3 February 1784, Ralph Hinds of Mulhussey, County Meath, Esq. of the first part, his second son Matthew Hinds and Sarah Gerrard, spinster and one of the daughters of William Gerrard of Dormstown, in the County of Meath Esq. of the second part, the said William Gerrard of the third part, and his nephew William Gerrard of Liscartan in the County of Meath Esq. and Thomas Hinds of the City of Dublin Esq. of the fourth part, made a Memorial of Indentured Deed of Release. After first reciting that Ralph Hinds was seized in fee simple of (owned unconditionally) the different lands contained in the deed, and also reciting that a marriage was intended to be thereby had between Matthew Hinds and Sarah Gerrard, the Deed of Release identified the portions of his lands Ralph was agreeing to give in trust for the benefit of his son Matthew Hinds and his wife Sarah Gerrard with Sarah's cousin William Gerrard of Liscartan and Matthew's brother Thomas Hinds as trustees. Ralph Hinds first granted, bargained, sold, released and confirmed to William Gerrard and Thomas Hinds the towns and lands of Ned, Cornagee, the part of Toberlyan called Duffin, and Mulrick, situated, lying and being in the County of Cavan, with all and singular their appurtenances. Thomas Hinds and William Gerrard as trustees, their heirs and assigns, were to hold the said lands and premises thereby granted and released, with the appurtenances, to their own use and maintenance, and partially, after the marriage of Matthew and Sarah, to the use of Matthew and his assigns during his life. And from and after his death, to the use of the said trustees for five hundred years; to the use of the first son of Matthew by Sarah and the heirs of such first son; in default thereof to the use of the second, third, fourth and all and every son and sons of Matthew by Sarah, successively, one after another in seniority of the heirs of all and every such son and sons, such sons of the heirs of his body to be preferred. With no such issue, the lands were to default back to the use of Ralph Hinds, his heirs and assigns forever. And, concerning the said five hundred years to the Trustees to support the other contingent premises and for the other purposes therein and partially upon trust. In case the said Sarah Gerrard should survive the said Matthew Hinds and there should be no issue of their marriage living at his decease or if any issue and the same should die before the age of twenty-one, the Trust was to pay or to authorize said Sarah and her assigns to receive out of the rents and profits from the said lands included in this Grant and Release, a yearly annuity rent charge of £100 during her natural life for her and their own use and benefit; and in case Sarah should survive Matthew, and there be living issue at his decease, then and so long as the said children lived, the Trust was to pay or to authorize Sarah to receive out of the rents and profits from the said lands an annual annuity rent charge of £70, in lieu of the said annuity of £100, during her natural life. Sarah's annual annuity, whichever it turned out to be, was to be paid half yearly on the first of November and the first of May by equal portions without deductions. The first payment was to be made on such of the said days which shall first happen next after the decease of Matthew Hinds, with a power for Sarah and her assigns to distrain (seize for payment of the debt); and in case there should be an eldest son and one or more other child or children of Matthew Hinds on the body of Sarah Gerrard to be begotten, or in case there should not be any son of the intended marriage and all their issue should be a daughter or daughters, then William Gerrard of Liscartan and Thomas Hinds, their executors, administrators and assigns, should by sale or mortgage during the said term of five hundred years, levy or borrow £1,000 for the portion or portions of the other child or children and pay or make over the said sum among the child or children other than an eldest or only son in such shares or proportions as Matthew Hinds by deed or by his last will should appoint. The Deed of Release and Memorial was signed and sealed by all parties and witnessed by Edward King of the City of Dublin Gentleman and Christian Jordan, Writing Clerk on 04 February 1784, and registered the same day.12

The said Deed of Lease and Memorial was signed and sealed in the presence of Ralph's son Thomas Hinds of the City of Dublin, Esq. and Christian Jordan of the City of Dublin, Writing Clerk, and registered on 3 April 1784.13

(Heir) EstateWilliam Hinds died before his brother Ralph who then inherited, as a result of their father's will, all the Estate lands, tenements and hereditaments that had been William's before his death.3 
Will15 April 1794Ralph Hinds of Kimmins Mill, County Meath, left a will dated 15 April 1794 and proved on 10 May 1794. His estate was quite large. He named eighteen beneficiaries, including Walter Hinds, Ralph Hinds, Walter Hinds, Anne Hinds, Richard Stephens, Esther (Cannon) Hinds, Matthew Hinds, Thomas Hinds, Alexander Hinds, Mary (Hinds) Walsh, Michael Walsh, Clarissa (Hinds) Stephens, Martha (Hinds) Matthews, Eleanor (Hinds) Smith, Hester (Hinds) Dunn, Hester Stephens, Clarissa Stephens and Mary Anne Stephens. It appears from reading the will that he put much of his estate into a trust or series of trusts, with Thomas Berry and Alexander Berry as trustees, for the purpose of perpetuating the Hinds legacy for eternity. While we don’t yet know what eventually became of all the lands mentioned in Ralph’s will, or exactly when and under what circumstances they left the family, we do know that Ralph's eldest son Walter, who inherited (in trust) Corrakane, Kilmainham, Clonmult and Corrarde with their sub-denominations, died in 1804 and that he left a son Walter, born about 1798, who also lived at Corrakane until at least 1821, and possibly for the remainder of his life. He had eight children, six of them sons, and most of his children emigrated to England and the United States in the late 1860s. Their father Walter, who remained in County Cavan, died at Ballinagh, near Corrakane, in 1879. It is also known that Ralph’s fourth son, Ralph, ultimately received at least the towns and lands of Mulhussey, Kimmins Mill and Mullagh in the County of Meath, had no male issue, and so impoverished himself that he lost all his property except an annuity secured on the lands of Mulhussey.

The will found at the National Archives of Ireland in 2005 had the following notation: Extracted from the Registry of her Majesty's Court of Prerogative in Ireland." It begins: "In the Name of God Amen I Ralph Hinds the elder of Kimmins Mill in the County of Meath Esquire considering the uncertainties of this life and being at present sound in mind memory and understanding Do make publish and declare this and no other to be my last Will and Testament to wit I order and direct that my body may be interred in a private and decent manner early in the morning in the Church Yard of "Reddinstown" at the discretion of my Executors..." He then made the following bequests:

To Thomas Berry of Rockfield and Alexander Berry of Berrymount, both in the County of Cavan Esquire and to "their Heirs all that and those", the Towns and lands of Corrakane, Kilmainham, Clonmult and Corrard with their sub-denominations situate in the County of Cavan to be held in Trust for Ralph's eldest son Walter... "

" ... in trust to permit and suffer my said son Walter and his Assigns to take and receive the rents, issues and profits thereof during the term of his natural life"... and then after Walter's death the same situation for any male heirs, lawfully begotten by Walter, the priority of inheritance to be in the Seniority of Age and order of their births. And, should Walter not have any sons, then at Walter's death his inheritance was given to Walter's brother Ralph Hinds...

So, next in line was Ralph, his fourth son and for his Assigns, for and during the term of his natural life and with the same conditions for receipt of rents, issues and profits outlined for Walter. And also with the same conditions of succession to Ralph's male heirs, the priority of inheritance to be in the Seniority of Age and order of their births.

Next in line was Ralph's nephew and son-in-law, Walter Hinds, husband of Ralph's daughter Anne Hinds, with all of the same conditions of trust, benefits and male succession previously reviewed.

The last in line was Ralph's grandson, Richard Stephens, again with all of the same conditions of trust, benefits and male succession.

As trustees, Thomas Berry and Alexander Berry and their Heirs during the natural life of the said Ralph Hinds were instructed to support the contingent remainders hereinafter limited from being defeated and destroyed and for that purpose to make entries and bring actions as occasion should require.

To his wife Esther Hinds, during the term of her natural life, Ralph directed that his trustees pay £40 a year, over and above all taxes, from the lands and premises held in trust and instructed that this payment be their first priority, and made quarterly on every first day of May, August, November and February in every year. This payment was to be made in lieu of all "Dower or Thirds" which she may have had a claim to at Common law or out of his lands, tenements or Premises which could be seized for any estate or inheritance taxes. And he further directed that his wife, within the space of six calendar months after his death, execute such a release of all dower and Title of Dower and Thirds at Common law which she could or might be entitled to and to any lands and premises of the estate that could or might be seized in order to protect them for the line of succession described earlier in the will. Ralph's will provided that should Esther refuse to execute such a release within the term described, then any gift or bequest to and for her own use and benefit was to cease and become void. Further, the will gave Walter, "or such person as be seized," of said Premises the power by Mortgage or otherwise to encumber the lands of Corrakane, Kilmainham, Clonmult and Corrard as a provision for younger children which he or they may have with sum or sums of money not exceeding one thousand pounds.

To his son Walter Hinds and his Heirs and Assigns, he bequeathed all of his Freehold Estate in the Towns and Lands of Carrigan, Cargagh, "Coghs" and all his interest therein situate in the County of Cavan which he derived by Lease from the late Lord Farnham.

Again, regarding the £40 a year payable to his wife, Esther, from the lands of Corrakane, Kilmainham, Clonmult and Corrard, Ralph's will stated that in case the amount should not be paid upon the days respectively before mentioned or within twenty-one days after each of said days of payment shall be passed, that then and in such case Esther Hinds and her assigns would have liberty to enter upon any part of those lands and distrain (seize for payment of the debt) the same lands for her Jointure (the arrangement by which a man sets aside property for the support of his wife after his death; the property so designated) as the same shall become due and the distress and distresses and then there found to dispose of according to law in full satisfaction of the said jointure and all arrears thereof and all costs attending the recovery thereof. He also bequeathed to his wife Esther the sum of three hundred and nine pounds with all interest due thereon by her brother Mathew Cannon by Bills of Exchange of his Endorsement bearing date on or about the _(blank)_day of _(blank)_. His will also directed his Executors to recover the debt by suit or otherwise as soon after his death as convenient and to pay the full amount all interest to his wife Esther Hinds. Also to Esther, he gave the use of all his household furniture, Carriage and two Horses during her natural life or so long as she should continue to live with her children.

After the death of Esther, the carriage, horses and household furniture were instructed to go to his son Ralph.

Ralph further bequeathed to his son Walter Hinds, and his heirs forever, all the estates, lands, tenements or hereditaments late in the possession of his (Ralph's) brother William Hinds and all interest and claim whatsoever in and to the same which Ralph either had in his possession, or was in any respect entitled to, at the time of William's death.

In his will, Ralph confirmed the settlement of marriage executed unto his second son, Matthew Hinds and his wife, Sarah (Gerrard) Hinds, and the uses and trusts and covenants therein mentioned.

The will also confirmed that Ralph had already given his third son, Thomas Hinds, the Deed of Sale on the lands of Curraghtown situate in the County of Meath.

To his nephew and son-in-law, Walter Hinds, his Executors, Administrators and Assigns, he gave the Bond and Judgment Debt owed to Ralph by Richard Johnston, late of Dunmucky in the County of Dublin, deceased, and also the sum of seventy-two pounds eighteen shillings due to Ralph with interest from the year 1780 by his brother Thomas Hinds, and also the sum of twenty-six pounds three shillings and three pence due to Ralph by his sister Anne Hinds, and also the sum of fifty pounds due to Ralph by Patrick Halfpenny, late of Bailis in the County of Meath.

To his fourth son, Ralph Hinds and his heirs, he gave his interest in the entire town and lands of Mulhussey, Kimmins Mill and Mullagh in the County of Meath subject to Ralph paying his brother Alexander Hinds, Ralph the Elder's fifth son, forty pounds a year. The will provided, that in the event of non-payment, Alexander had the right to distrain (seize) those lands or any part thereof for the payment.

As just stated, to his fifth son, Alexander Hinds, the sum of forty pounds per year, and the responsibility for payment to his fourth son, Ralph. The will instructed Ralph to pay Alexander, during his natural life, at the rate of two even half-yearly payments on the first day of May and first day of November in every year. Alexander was given the liberty, in case of non-payment, to seize the town and lands of Mulhussey, Kimmins Mill and Mullagh in the County of Meath, or any part thereof, for payment.

Again, to his fourth son Ralph, this time in trust, he gave the Town and Lands of "Nasterstown" in the County of Meath and Toberlyan, Mulrick and Duffin, Ned and Cornagee in the County of Cavan. According to the will, remainders from being defeated and destroyed, and instructed the trustees to make entries and bring actions as the case should require, while still permitting Ralph to take the rents, issues and profits during the term of his natural life. After son Ralph's death, the succession of inheritance was to follow the same pattern and conditions outlined earlier in the will: passing first to Ralph's male heirs, then to Ralph the Elder's nephew and son-in-law Walter Hinds and his wife Anne Hinds, and to their male heirs, then to Ralph the Elder's grandson, Richard Stephens, eldest son of Ralph's daughter Clarissa Stephens, and to his male heirs, the priority of inheritance to be in the Seniority of Age and order of births.

To his fourth son Ralph, he also gave all of his stock of cattle, horses, hay, corn, household furniture except as before excepted, and Plate Farming Utensils on the lands of Mulhussey, Mullagh or elsewhere.

His will further provided that the lands of Mulhussey, Kimmins Mill and Mullagh and all his several stocks of cattle thereon be subject to the payment of all his just debts and legacies except those bequeathed to his wife and children or such person as should be seized of the lands of Mulhussey, all being given the power to charge by Mortgage or otherwise. The will instructs son Ralph to charge and encumber all the several and respective lands, either given to him or in trust for him, for his younger children or for such person as should be seized of the lands, lawfully to be gotten with a sum not exceeding two thousand pounds.

To his servant, Mary Walsh, wife of James Walsh, both in his service, he bequeathed to her during her natural life and after her decease to her eldest son Michael Walsh, all his estate freehold of the lands of Thorntown with its sub-denominations situate in the County of Dublin and all his interest therein which he held under Sir Pigot William Peirs. Also to Mary Walsh, he gave all the household furniture in the house of Kimmins Mill except the desk and bookcase in his own bed chamber and the Ewe table in the parlour.

To his nephew and son-in-law, Walter Hinds, he gave the desk and bookcase from his bedroom and the Ewe table in the parlour.

To his daughters Clarissa Stephens and Martha Matthews, he left one shilling each, only because they had already been paid their fortunes and provided for in his lifetime. To his daughter Eleanor Smith, he gave one hundred pounds and to his daughter Hester Dunn, fifty pounds. To his daughter Anne Hinds, the wife of his nephew Walter Hinds, the sum of one thousand pounds to be paid by the Executors, twelve months after his death, with interest for the amount until paid at the rate of six pounds by the hundred yearly.

To his granddaughters, Hester Stephens, Clarissa Stephens and Mary Anne Stephens, he gave the sum of two hundred pounds which he was entitled to under the will of his late father, Walter Hinds Esquire deceased, upon the death of his (Ralph's) sister, Anne Hinds. The amount was to be divided between his granddaughters in the following manner: To Hester, fifty pounds; to Clarissa, one hundred pounds, and to Mary Anne, fifty pounds. He gave his heirs full rights on the properties he bequeathed to each, unless seized or limited by Indenture or Indentures, to devise (transfer) and lease their properties or any parts thereof for any term or terms not exceeding thirty-one years; and that any respective lease or leases were to contain conditions of re-entry for non-payment of rent and dispunishment of Waste and that the rents be adjusted annually to the full and most improved yearly value than could be reasonably be had. No fine, fines or income whatsoever could be taken from another son or heir by any respectively on his wife or wives by way of by his son Ralph. Any such jointure was to be paid yearly out of such lands that belonged to each of the sons, respectively. The sons had the right, but not the obligation, to make the jointures.

To his son Ralph, he gave, all the rest and residue of his real and personal estate not already disposed of in his will. He also appointed son Ralph Hinds and his nephew and son-in-law Walter Hinds as the Executors of his Last Will and Testament and revoked all former or other wills made before.

Note: The place names mentioned have been transcribed as carefully as possible. The extract was handwritten and, some words, very difficult to read. It may be that some of the same places it described were referenced more than once with different spellings and also that the intended meanings of some of the phases in the document were misinterpreted. Named as Witnesses to his will were Richard Thomson, John Dalton and Frank Power Ward.3 
Death*1794He died in 1794.14 
Burial*In his will, Ralph Hinds had ordered and directed that his body be interred in a private and decent manner early in the morning in the Church Yard, Rodanstown, County Meath, Ireland, at the discretion of his Executors.3

Name-DescriptiveThe descriptive name we used to clarify the identification of this Ralph Hinds, as we worked to place him correctly within the Hinds family, was Ralph Hinds (4th son) ( -1848). 
(Son) ResidenceGrowing up with his parents and siblings, Ralph lived primarily at Mulhussey Castle, County Meath, Ireland.1
Marriage*He married Catherine Kelly.2 
(Heir) Will15 April 1794Ralph's father, Ralph Hinds of Kimmins Mill, County Meath, left a will dated 15 April 1794 and proved on 10 May 1794. His estate was quite large. He named eighteen beneficiaries, including Walter Hinds, Ralph Hinds, Walter Hinds, Anne Hinds, Richard Stephens, Esther (Cannon) Hinds, Matthew Hinds, Thomas Hinds, Alexander Hinds, Mary (Hinds) Walsh, Michael Walsh, Clarissa (Hinds) Stephens, Martha (Hinds) Matthews, Eleanor (Hinds) Smith, Hester (Hinds) Dunn, Hester Stephens, Clarissa Stephens and Mary Anne Stephens. It appears from reading the will that he put much of his estate into a trust or series of trusts, with Thomas Berry and Alexander Berry as trustees, for the purpose of perpetuating the Hinds legacy for eternity. The order of succession was designed to be (1) Walter Hinds, eldest son; (2) Ralph Hinds, fourth son; (3) Walter Hinds, nephew and son-in-law, husband of daughter Anne Hinds; and (4) Richard Stephens, his grandson.

For the benefit of Walter, described in the will as Ralph's eldest son, the will directed Thomas Berry of Rockfield and Alexander Berry of Berrymount, both in the County of Cavan Esquire and to "their Heirs all that and those", the Towns and lands of Corrakane, Kilmainham, Clonmult and Corrard with their sub-denominations situate in the County of Cavan to be held in Trust for Ralph's eldest son Walter... "

" ... in trust to permit and suffer my said son Walter and his Assigns to take and receive the rents, issues and profits thereof during the term of his natural life"... and then after Walter's death the same situation for any male heirs, lawfully begotten by Walter, the priority of inheritance to be in the Seniority of Age and order of their births. And, should Walter not have any sons, then at Walter's death his inheritance was to be given to Walter's brother Ralph Hinds...So, next in line was Ralph, his fourth son and for his Assigns, for and during the term of his natural life and with the same conditions for receipt of rents, issues and profits outlined for Walter. And also with the same conditions of succession to Ralph's male heirs, the priority of inheritance to be in the Seniority of Age and order of their births.

Next in line was Ralph's nephew and son-in-law, Walter Hinds, husband of Ralph's daughter Anne Hinds, with all of the same conditions of trust, benefits and male succession previously reviewed.

The last in line was Ralph's grandson, Richard Stephens, again with all of the same conditions of trust, benefits and male succession.

As trustees, Thomas Berry and Alexander Berry and their Heirs during the natural life of the said Ralph Hinds were instructed to support the contingent remainders hereinafter limited from being defeated and destroyed and for that purpose to make entries and bring actions as occasion should require.

To his fourth son, Ralph Hinds and his heirs, he also gave, outside the trust, his interest in all of the town and lands of Mulhussey, Kimmins Mill and Mullagh in the County of Meath subject to Ralph paying his brother Alexander Hinds, Ralph the Elder's fifth son, forty pounds a year. The will provided, that in the event of non-payment, Alexander had the right to distrain (seize) those lands or any part thereof for the payment.

The will gave the responsibility for Alexander's £40 payment to his fourth son, Ralph. The will instructed Ralph to pay Alexander, during his natural life, at the rate of two even half-yearly payments on the first day of May and first day of November in every year. Alexander was given the liberty, in case of non-payment, to seize the town and lands of Mulhussey, Kimmins Mill and Mullagh in the County of Meath, or any part thereof, for payment.

Again, to his fourth son Ralph, this time in trust, he gave the Town and Lands of "Nasterstown" in the County of Meath and Toberlyan, Mulrick and Duffin, Ned and Cornagee in the County of Cavan. According to the will, the purpose of the trust was to support and preserve the contingent remainders from being defeated and destroyed, and instructed the trustees to make entries and bring actions as the case should require, while still permitting Ralph to take the rents, issues and profits during the term of his natural life. After son Ralph's death, the succession of inheritance was to follow the same pattern and conditions outlined earlier in the will: passing first to Ralph's male heirs, then to Ralph the Elder's nephew and son-in-law Walter Hinds and his wife Anne Hinds, and to their male heirs, then to Ralph the Elder's grandson, Richard Stephens, eldest son of Ralph's daughter Clarissa Stephens, and to his male heirs, the priority of inheritance to be in the Seniority of Age and order of births.

To his fourth son Ralph, he also gave all of his stock of cattle, horses, hay, corn, household furniture except as before excepted, and Plate Farming Utensils on the lands of Mulhussey, Mullagh or elsewhere.

His will further provides that the lands of Mulhussey, Kimmins Mill and Mullagh and all his several stocks of cattle thereon be subject to the payment of all his just debts and legacies except those bequeathed to his wife and children or such person as should be seized of the lands of Mulhussey, all being given the power to charge by Mortgage or otherwise. The will instructed son Ralph to charge and encumber all the several and respective lands, either given to him or in trust for him, for his younger children or for such person as should be seized of the lands, lawfully to be gotten with a sum not exceeding two thousand pounds.

The will provided, also, that his son Ralph should have the power of settling respectively on his wife or wives by way of jointure, any sum not exceeding the sum of one hundred pounds. Any such jointure was to be paid yearly out of such lands that belonged to son Ralph, who had the right, but not the obligation, to make the jointure.

To his son Ralph, he also gave all the rest and residue of his real and personal estate not already disposed of in his will. He also appointed son Ralph Hinds and his nephew and son-in-law Walter Hinds as his Executors.3 
Residence*Ralph and Catherine lived with their daughters, Charlotte and Mary Anne, at Mulhussey Castle, County Meath.2 
Inheritance* After inheriting his father's estate, Ralph Hinds appears to have led a country gentleman's life which, in those days, meant hunting, racing, betting and general extravagance, in which he was encouraged by his brothers-in-law. He kept a pack of harriers, and hunted the neighbouring country and so impoverished himself ultimately, that he lost all his property, except an annuity secured on the lands of Mulhussey.2 
Relationship Note* The families of Ralph Hinds and George Thomas Bell Booth were thought by earlier researchers to have been related in some way. Our research indicates that they were both 1st cousins one time removed and 3rd cousins one time removed.4 
(Husband) Death1817Ralph became a widower when Catherine (Kelly) Hinds died in their home at County Meath in 1817.2 
(Father) Court ActionIn the marriage settlement of Charlotte's and Mary Anne's mother, Catherine Kelly, to Ralph Hinds, there was a clause charging £1000 for each of the daughters on the Mulhussey property. After the death of Mary Anne, this money was recovered by Charlotte, who inherited her sister's portion. After the Court of Chancery directed that part of the property be sold, to pay this money, Charlotte bought land that had belonged to her father and was situated near Killeshandra in the townlands of Toberlyan and Mulrick.2 
Residence* In later years, Ralph lived at Ontario Terrace, Dublin, County Dublin, Ireland.2 
Death*1848He died in 1848 at Ontario Terrace, Dublin,2 
Burial* and was buried in Mount Jerome Cemetery, Dublin. A monument to his memory stands close to the entrance gate of the cemetery. His daughter's name, Mary Anne Hinds, is also inscribed on her father's monument, which was erected by her sister, Charlotte, to their memory. The date on the monument is not correct for Ralph's death, and may be the date Charlotte's mother died in 1817 and/or the date of her sister Mary Anne's death.2
Relationship Note*A typewritten note found in Dublin at the National Archives of Ireland in 2005 about the destructive behavior of Ralph Hinds, was authored by William Richard Gore Hinds. For many years we puzzled over the relationship between these two men. Eleven years later, in September 2016, our questions were answered. With great appreciation to a newly found Hinds cousin, we are able to report that William Richard Gore Hinds was a grandnephew of Ralph Hinds, both descending from Ralph Hinds (1741-1794) of Mulhussey, and a first cousin one time removed of the younger Ralph's murdered daughter Charlotte.2,1,5

Father*John Hinds1 d. 1706
Mother*Mary __?__1
Name-DescriptiveThe descriptive name we used to clarify the identification of this Ralph Hinds, as we worked to place him correctly within the Hinds family, was Ralph Hinds ( -1752) of Kilmainham. 
Marriage*He married Anne Hussey. The Marguerite Clayton source provided Anne's surname as "Hussey?" and the Isaac source identified her only as "Ann."1,2 
Freeman*30 December 1714Ralph Hinds was made a Freeman of Cavan, County Cavan, Ireland, on 30 December 1714. The granting of this status meant that he was legally recognized as a white male over 21 years of age holding full rights of citizenship and free to engage in a trade or business, own land, and to vote. Since Ralph would have been well over the age of 21 in 1714, he may have been a new arrival to the area.3 
Deed Memorial*16 September 1746 On 16 September 1746 Richard Booth of Drumcarban, County Cavan, and his son Robert Booth, and Ralph Hinds, also in the County of Cavan, registered a Memorial Articles of Marriage agreement in preparation for the marriage between Ralph's daughter, Margaret Hinds, and Robert Booth. The agreement stated that, in consideration of his affection for his son Robert Booth and of a Marriage Portion payment of one hundred twenty pounds received by Margaret Hinds from her father Ralph Hinds, Richard Booth granted immediately and forever confirmed to Robert and to Robert's and Margaret's lawful heirs, the one half of his Freehold called Drumcarban located in the Barony of Clanmahon, and then the other half at Richard's death. Richard agreed that the Freehold was to be free from all debts and, in case Margaret should survive her husband Robert, subject to an annuity of ten pounds a year to Margaret for life to be paid out of the lands of Drumcarban. It was further agreed in the articles that neither Richard nor Robert would sell, dispose of or contract any debt on the lands and that they should be passed to Robert's and Margaret's heirs forever. The articles were witnessed by Patrick Stephens of Ardvagh and Thomas Hinds and George Hinds of Kilmainham, all in the County of Cavan.4 
Death*December 1752He died in December 17521,5 
Burial*10 December 1752 and was buried on 10 December 1752 in Church Graveyard, Ballintemple Parish, County Cavan, Ireland.6,5

Ralph Hinds1

d. November 1750
Research Notes*Ralph Hinds is included on indexes with an Icon indicating he was a descendant of John Hinds ( -1706), the earliest Hinds originally identified, because we believe that all of the Hinds people included on the site were members of our Hinds family. He does not appear on the John Hinds Descendancy Chart, however, because his actual relationship within the family has not been determined. The Ralph Hinds who was buried on 20 Nov 1750 has not yet been identified. We believe he was a member of one of our Hinds families, and our research continues. For now, however, he has been placed alone with no family relationships identified.1 
Death*November 1750He died in November 1750.

Father-Possible*Jervis Hinds1 d. 1649
Research Notes*Ralph Hinds is included on indexes with an Icon indicating he was a "descendant" of John Hinds ( -1706), the earliest Hinds originally identified, because we believe that all of the Hinds people included on the site were members of our Hinds family. Ralph appears to have been of John's generation, however, and may have actually been a brother, cousin or something else. He does not appear on the John Hinds Descendancy Chart because his actual relationship within the family has not been determined.1 
(Brother-Possible) Research NotesThe Hinds family descendancy chart received from the source identifies three Hinds brothers in the 1600s named Jervis Hinds, John Hinds and Jonas Hinds, sons of an unidentified Hinds patriarch. The chart indicates that Jervis had two sons, Ralph Hinds, who died in 1690, and Walter Hinds, who died in 1702. Ralph and Walter may have been brothers of our previously identified John Hinds ( -1706), whom we had originally positioned as our earliest known ancestor. Although our John Hinds ( -1706) is not shown on the source's chart, beginning with the next generation almost everything agrees. We are going to need more information before we can feel confident that what we are presenting here is accurate. So, for the time being on our own descendancy chart, we will continue to show John Hinds ( -1706) as our earliest known Hinds progenitor.1 
Death*1690He died about 1690.1
