Gould families appear in the records of Cork and the Munster counties as part of the established Anglo-Irish community, their name found among the merchant and gentry classes of the province through the early modern period. This Irish woven blanket features the Gould family crest against the Irish National Tartan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBackground\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn County Cork, the Gould name was associated with the merchant families of Cork city and the surrounding county, part of the prosperous Anglo-Irish trading community that made Cork one of the most commercially significant cities in Ireland through the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Cork’s harbour, its butter market, and its wool trade made the city a centre of Atlantic commerce, and families like the Goulds were part of the merchant class that shaped its prosperity. The Gould name in Munster connects to this tradition of Cork Anglo-Irish commercial and civic life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eConstruction\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis blanket is woven from premium cotton yarn — the Gould family crest and the Irish National Tartan integrated into the textile structure during weaving, not applied to the surface.
