Hubert Kelly Waldron papers

1815-1962 (majority 1815-1860)

The Hubert Kelly Waldron papers span the years 1815 to 1962 and include Waldron's papers as well as those of his mother, children and grandchildren. Waldron and his family lived at Ashfort (sometimes spelled Ashford) House in Drumsna, County Leitrim, Ireland. They were Anglo-Irish, King James I having granted Dromellan Castle to Sir Richard Waldron in 1609. The papers consist primarily of correspondence relating to day-to-day business and family subjects, including Hubert Kelly Waldron's murder in 1848. But the family also witnessed some of the most turbulent times in Ireland's history, including the potato blight and subsequent famines, mass emigration, and the Fenian uprisings.
