Sir Laurence Parsons was granted extensive lands in King’s County (Offaly) in the early 1600s, and the family became one of the prominent Anglo-Irish gentry families of the region. The Earls of Rosse — one of the most distinguished titles in the Parsons family lineage — became famous in the nineteenth century through William Parsons, the 3rd Earl of Rosse, who built the Leviathan of Parsonstown, then the world’s largest telescope, at Birr Castle. The Parsons name in Ireland is therefore one of scientific distinction as well as colonial settlement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWoven Craftsmanship\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis blanket is woven on a loom — not printed.
