In the 1830s Moherloob was owned, along with other lands, by Luke McGrath of Lakeville House, Gartinardress townland, Killeshandra (the High Sheriff of Cavan in 1809), together with his daughter and her husband, Margaret and Richard Young. On 1 November 1833 they mortgaged the lands to Robert Hutton. Luke McGrath died in 1834, having left his share to his daughter Margaret Young. In 1848 Robert Hutton applied to court to sell the lands in order to get the proceeds of his mortgage and on 10 December 1849 a court ordered the sale. The sale took place on 13 December 1850 and maps of the Moherloob land sold are still available.https://irelandxo.com/sites/default/files/Richard%20Young%20-%20Sale%20of%20Estate.pdf Robert Hutton bought Moherloob at the sale and was still the owner during Griffith's Valuation in 1857.
