Of interest is the following extract from Fitzgeralds History of the Irish Nobility, which was copied from the original by James J Warry , The Laurels, Kingsland Road, Birkenhead. James was a descendant of a brother of Onesiphorus Warry born 1764 West Coker, Somerset, England. A grandson , Richard Symes Warry (fifth child of Thomas Warry and Maria Symes was Mayor of Brisbane, Queensland , Australia from 1866. The name Onesiphorus remained for five generations in this family also of interest is the name Brabazon that also appeared for three generations in this family starting as far as I can see with Robert Brabazon Warry born 11 October 1837 Everton, Lancashire

This extract reads :-
