- There lived in Rathquile Adamstown Co. Wexford, a man named Thomas Canning.
His house was on the top of Rathquile hill in a field, now occupied by Myles Noctor Rathquile Adamstown Co Wexford.
In the rebellion of '98 he left his home and family and went and joined the Irish forces on Vinegar Hill; and from that he marched to Ross. He fought bravely in all the battles around and he came home safe and lived to see his children and grand-children grown up. He died in the year 1848.
