From Turtle Bunbury's Sir Charles Coote, the 1st and 2nd Baronets:

http://www.turtlebunbury.com/history/history_family/hist_family_cuf...

His widow, Lady Jane, remarried Sir Robert Reading. In compensation for the loss of her husband, she was granted a license to build and maintain lighthouses around the Irish coast and to extract dues from mariners accordingly for 31 years. The ruined lighthouse on the Old Head of Kinsale, County Cork, is the only one still standing.
