Here are the names on the Kirwan vault in Ross Errilly Friary. I don't know anything about this family except that Castlehacket is the site of a very old ruined tower house at the foot of Knockmaa, and Castlehacket House is a modern Anglo-Irish "Big House" demense across the highway from old Castlehacket.
Castlehacket also spelled Castlehackett, Castle Hacket and Castle Hackett.
I think this family's details are on the Internet at
http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~jmack/kirwan1.htm
and found under "KIRWAN (No. 3) of Castlehacket,
County Galway. "
