- Extracted from Buggy Name History/Land Survey of Ireland 1876:
(Kyran Thomas, but sometimes missnamed Kevin T) worked with Daniel O’Connell for the cause of Irish freedom and catholic emancipation. He was training as a lawyer, but was also a journalist and rally/protest organiser. He also wrote poems and songs including ‘The Saxon Shilling’ which still can be heard. He died very young however, and there is a monument to him in the old graveyard in Belfast.
- Definitely the same person. KT Buggy buried in Friar's Green in Belfast where they note memorial to Buggy. Followed on Duffy as the editor of the Vindicator, though not mentioned in Duffy's autobiography. — billinghurst sDrewth 13:02, 8 November 2016 (UTC)
