    Notes:

    I am unable to find a spouses name for Benjamin. Some of the online genealogies are mixed up with other Benjamins. In particular, Anna Merwin and Naomi Palmer are spouses to other Benjamin Irishs.

    Per "The Settlers of the Beekman Patent Vol 7 P148" Benjamin does not appear on the 1790 Census and there are no probate records for him in Washington County, New York.

    Notes:

    From: W. L. Irish - David Irish and family settled in Groveland Twp. Oakland County, Michigan in 1837. He purchased 80 acres for each of his 8 sons and 40 acres for each of his 2 daughters. One of his sons, Norman, brought a wife and three children with him to Michigan, and was killed a number of years later by a kick of a horse. Two of his sons, Damon and George, were living in the same neighborhood in 1877. Damon Irish of Groveland Twp., paid a bounty of $14 for a volunteer to serve in the Civil War in 1864. (Note: The book is in error on the relationship of George and Damon. George and Damon were his grand children, sons of Norman.)
    Oakland County real estate records show an entry for David Irish of Washington County, New York purchasing land dated 13 June 1836.
    David died intestate (with no will) in Brandon, Oakland, Michigan on 8 Jan 1855. His probate paperwork stated there were 8 heirs, although only Manley and Liberty were specifically mentioned. The probate petition ended up being dismissed when the heirs agreed among themselves on a settlement.
