Basil O'Connell in letters of 6 Mar 1969 and 12 Apr 1969 says there was a marriage settlement of November 1803 when Ellen O'Connell married Henry Blennerhassett.
He thinks it would be under Blennerhassett or O'Connell or even Tuohy.
He thinks "Splinter" got a share of the settlement. He thought "Splinter" was son of Ellen but it seems he is nephew of her late husband.
