Samuel Grubb was buried on Sugarloaf Hill, in the Knockmealdown Mountains on September 10th 1921. To this day a monument stands on the mountain in his honour. It is very close to The Vee (within a few hundred metres or so). It is signposted just along from the Vee on the Waterford side.
According to Samuel’s descendant, Nicholas, the burial took place on the Sugar Loaf partly because it was requested by the deceased. This request, however, was largely because the family had been removed from the Society of Friends (better known as the Quakers) in 1844 (11 years before Samuel was born) for engaging in ‘amusements or entertainments of a hurtful or injurious tendency’, more specifically for attending ‘Balls at which music and dancing form a chief part’ and which were forbidden by the rules of the Society.
