WITNESS: George PIPPARD & Matthew PAGEITT[10] clke to Benjamin JOHNSTON[11] publican.

[1] Rt. Hon John Lord BELLEW Going by the date, I would assume that this is the 2^nd Baronet, Sir John BELLEW b 1660, son of Sir Patrick BELLEW and Elizabeth BARNEWALL. He died a few months after this deed, on 23 July 1734. SOURCE: http://www.thepeerage.com/p13731.htm#i137308

[2] Charles COULTER of Carrickstuck. I believe this to be the Charles COULTER (?-bef 1776 ) who was deceased before 1776 Dec 4 SOURCE: Deed: 323 232 213562. I also suspect that he was a brother of Samuel COULTER (abt 1690-?) of Cavananore and of William and John COULTER – the latter two were also deceased before 1776. He married Mary McEVERS before 1735 (son James mentioned). SOURCE: DEED: 134 179 90509. And DEED: 80 473 56629

[3] William COULTER of Carrickstuck. I believe he was a brother of Charles COULTER (?-bef 1776 ), Samuel COULTER (abt 1690-?) of Cavananore and John COULTER.

[4] John COULTER I believe he was a brother of Charles COULTER (?-bef 1776 ), Samuel COULTER (abt 1690-?) of Cavananore and William COULTER.

[5] Carrickastuck, a townland of 229 acres in the Parish of Phillipstown, Co. Louth.

[6] James COULTER (b bef 1735), son of Charles COULTER of Carrickastuck & Mary McEVERS.

[7] George PIPPARD of Drogheda merchant.

Going from Deeds evidence (which I have yet to work on) he would seem to be the eldest son of Christopher PIPPARD and a brother of Henry PIPPARD.
What is interesting in his appearance here in terms of the family story is that there are a number of JACKSON-PIPPARD Connections. For example, a document where Richard Jackson , alderman of Drogheda makes financial arrangements between himself and Eleanor Conly alias Pippard, his fiancée, Aug 23, 1699. Also, a letter of John Pippard to George Pippard on financial matters relating to a farm taken from Cpt. Jackson, Feb 23, 1730. And a lease by Robert Jackson to John Pippard of the town and lands of Castletownmoor near Kells, for 31 years commencing May 1, 1730.

[8] Drogheda, , a seaport, borough, and market-town, and a county of itself, locally in the county of LOUTH, and province of LEINSTER, 57 miles (S by W.) from Belfast, and 23 (N.) SOURCE: A Topographical Dictionary of Ireland, Samuel Lewis.http://www.libraryireland.com/topog/d3.php

[9] Cornelius M’LAUGHLIN of Drogheda, clerk to the said George PIPPARD. Just as the PIPPARD-JACKSON connections are interesting, so is the name M’LAUGHLIN since the George JACKSON (1718-1782) who is the earliest known member of our family tree married a Margaret O’LAUGHLIN in 1743.
