As well as the castle of Ward there was one on the lands of Spricklestown, which belonged 
to the family of FitzRery of Coolatrath in Kilsallaghan parish. At the beginning of the seventeenth century 
this castle was occupied by a cadet of the house of Luttrellstown
Richard Luttrell, who was married to a daughter of Richard FitzRery of Coolatrath, 
and thence, as a funeral entry records, 
after his death in 1619, his body was carried to Clonsilla to be interred.

Richard's date of death differs between the above 2 accounts.  One may be date Will was written and the other was date of probate.  Or, maybe FE Ball made an error. . .Or. . .it was another Richard. . ."a cadet of the house of Luttrellstown"
