 River Greese

The River Greese (also spelled Griese; ) is a small, fast-flowing river in south-east, Ireland, and a tributary of the River Barrow.The river takes its name from Killeen Cormac, which bears the name "capella de Gris" ("Gris Chapel") in "Crede Mihi", a c. 1280 ancient register of the Archbishops of Dublin, with the name also spelled "Grys"/"Gryse" in later accounts, and the "rivulus de Grys" appearing in John Alen's 1533 "Reportorium Viride".Jacob Nevill's 1760 map shows the "River Greeces", while "Greese" is the spelling generally used in the modern day, although "Griese" is also used.
