The 1851 Hawnby census for Chapel St gives the head of the house as William Bell aged 62, housekeeper as Elizabeth Barr aged 3 (should be 43 if she is the Elizabeth born 1808), daughter as Hannah Barr age 9, son as Thomas B. Barr aged 7,and a daughter Mary Barr aged 5 months. These children, place of birth and ages agree with those of the Illegitimate children of Elizabeth Barr who were born at Hawnby. It would seem that Elizabeth who was born in Bilsdale, in this census, is in fact the 43 year old mother of the children and as the boy is named Thomas Bell (see later ref. also) that William Bell is the father of her children. When Thomas Bell Barr later marries his first son is called John William & he later had a William Dickens. Refer 1841 & 1861 census for more details.

There is no record of this person but considering the 4 adjacent (and only) Prendergast graves at old St. Mary's church Clonmel it is highly probable that all were from the one family. Also from the tradition of naming the first child after the grandfather, then John (the solicitor) could have been named after this John.

Robert may not be the son of assumed John, but Robert & his son Geoffry are in one of the four adjacent graves and the DOB of Geoffrey could make his father Robert a son of assumed John.
