On 20 July 1692 it was ‘thought more agreeable’ to change the terms of a lease of 14 July 1692 (in which Gerald FitzGerald of Rathrone, Co Meath, did farm let to Laurence Bomford of Clonmaghan, Co Meath, Gent, the lands of Iniscoffey and Oldtowne, Co Westmeath, from three lives) to a lease of 999 years to Thomas Bomford. Subsequently (on the same day), to ensure that Peter McSherry should not recover the lands from Thomas Bomford, it was thought advisable ‘that the said lease for lives should still be kept on foot and not surrendered or cancelled’. So it was agreed on 20 July 1692 that the land be leased to Laurence Bomford for three lives.
