Anthony CASSIDY

(Abt 1835 - 1910)

Anthony was a prosperous merchant in Enniskillen, Co. Fermanagh. He was a widower when he married Jane McGurgan in 1865. They and their family lived in the town of Enniskillen for a number of years before purchasing The Graan, a large property outcide the town.

In 1908, having given up hope of having any grandchildren - his young granddaughter, Aileen Gordon, having died - he decided to gift The Graan to the Passionist Fathers (it is currently in use as a nursing home). However, in 1912, two years after Anthony's death, a grandson arrived, and two years after that a granddaughter.

Anthony and his second wife, Jane, lived on Upper Pembroke St. in Dublin in the final years of their lives.
