  	Following the restoration of the Monarchy in 1660, both these St. John’s sought return of their lands in 1664 under the Court of Claims. However only a small number of listed landowners were actually successful here and while we don’t know the outcome as far as Robert and John, the likelihood is they were not successful. Lands restored to Robert St. John, of St. Johnstown and John St. John, of Mortlestown
