  • Oxford DNB, viewed 08 February 2017 (Molloy, James Lynam (1837-1909), composer, born at Cornalaur, King's county, Ireland, on 19 August 1837. James was educated at St Edmund's College, Old Hall Green, near Ware, and at the Catholic University, Dublin, where he won a junior classical scholarship in 1855, under the rectorship of John Henry Newman, and graduated in arts in 1858. As the degree of MA from the Catholic University was not legally recognized by British institutions, Molloy continued his studies at London University, Paris, and Bonn, and was called to the English bar from the Middle Temple on 6 June 1863. As early as 1865 Molloy issued a number of songs, some of them with words by himself, and he soon grew to be one of the most successful Irish song composers of his time. In 1874 Molloy married Florence Emma (d. 1912), youngest daughter of Henry Baskerville, of Crowsley Park, Henley-on-Thames, deputy lieutenant for Oxfordshire. They had two sons and one daughter, and lived at Woolleys, Hambleden, near Henley-on-Thames, where Molloy died on 4 February 1909)
