Ancestor of the Chutes of Tralee. There are a few requests for information on this Pierce Chute: someone was "looking for information about the descendants of MICHAEL HANRAHAN who was born about 1750 probably in Kerry. He married MARGARET KENNELLY. One of his sons MICHAEL PATRICK HANRAHAN b 1808 in Lixnaw, Co. Kerry, d 1874, married in 1829 JOHANNA BUCKLEY, b.1811, d 1886 in Australia. Michael Patrick and Johanna H. migrated to Australia on the "Ascendant" in 1858 with their children. One of these children, Michael Francis HANRAHAN , b 1841 in Lixnaw, Co Kerry, d 1922 in Warwick, Queensland, married at Redbank Queensland in 1865 ELIZABETH ANNE TRANT, b 1842. D 1904 in Townsville Queensland. One of their daughters, Elizabeth Anne Valentine Hanrahan, b 1880, d 1973 in Warwick Queensland, married Henry STERNE in Warwick in 1909.
Elizabeth Anne TRANT, daughter of Thomas Patrick TRANT d 1849 and Mary Anne CHUTE, d 1851, of Dingle, Co Kerry. Mary Anne CHUTE, daughter of Pierce CHUTE, was reared at Chute Hall by her uncle Francis Bernard CHUTE and his wife Jane ROWAN." Based on the above, it was deduced that the researcher refers to this Pierce Chute , opposed to Pierce Thomas Chute, and that he had a daughter named Mary Anne, who married Thomas Patrick Trant mentioned above. However, her mother's name is not mentioned.
A family of Australian Chutes have recorded their descent from a Pierce Chute who wed a Julia O'Connor in Ireland. It was their son Richard who emigrated to Australia, and from whom they trace their descent. Pierce Thomas Chute is recorded as having married a Carrie Langton, although he might have remarried at some point. Further information is needed to determine which of these two Pierce Chutes married a Julia O'Connor and had a son, Richard, or if there is a third "Pierce Chute" who has not found his way into the records.
