of Robert Adair of Kilshruley (& other properties),Clonbroney, his daughter
having married 1742 to John Lambert, attorney of Dublin,
co. Wicklow and co. Longford, Ireland,
(relative of Oliver Richard Lambert).
There was a poem in 'The Sham Squire'
entitled 'Toping Seventy Years Ago'
about Robin Adair, the
wine-merchant of Dublin (and Hollybrook, co. Wicklow) going to Fox Hall to collect a debt.
Lambert family were of Kilcroney, co. Wicklow.
