POSTAL HISTORY: 1628 entire from "Killeleagh" (= Killyleagh) from 1st Viscount Claneboye & signed "Clansboyr", to his nephew requesting "some grows or moorfoull" [sic; the early spellings are a challenge], the address panel is largely legible but soiled. A very early Irish letter. [An excellent Irish collection offered in London in 2006 included only one earlier item, of 1597, that sold for £2185. The next earliest, of 1661 (33 years later than this entire), sold for £2300] The writer, James Hamilton, was a Scot who had been an agent for James VI of Scotland, reporting on the activities for & of Elizabeth I in Ireland. His reward was large tracts of land in Ulster & a peerage. In 1625, he moved from Bangor to Killyleagh Castle.
