 BRIDGET COYNE'S parents were DENNIS & BRIDGET KELLY COYNE

Hello Ironpool - I dont have any information with your serach going back that far i'm afraid.

cynoconnor - I have tried both your suggested web sites with no luck. Have you a telephone contact number for the Glinsk or Kilbegnet parish churches?

many thanks

Hi Bern,

You might try contacting the nearby Glenamaddy parish for assistance as I am unable to locate a phone number for Glinsk/Kilbegnet.

Contact details can be found here: http://www.glenamaddychurch.ie/noflash/contact.htm

All the best,

Cyn

Fab thank you - I now have the number for the two parishes as its the Divine MIssionairies that look after those churches now.

Hello, Ironpool!.  My great grandmother was Mary Mulligan.  She married Michael Gavin.  Birth records for some of their children show they were born in Leaha/Leahive.  I've found baptism records on line.  The children I've found were baptised in the parish shown as Glinsk on the Catholic records available through NLI.  Gavins and Mulligans both farmed land in Leaha in the 1850s based on the Griffiths valuation records.  It seems like a good bet that your Bridget and my great grandmother Mary were related.  I've had DNA analysis done through Ancestry.com.  I'm pretty sure I've seen your "name" somewhere in my DNA researches.  It would be great to compare notes if you've found any additional info on the Mulligans in Kilbeget.

Hi Bernie,

Are you still looking for information or have you got what you wanted? I know this is an old post but I have only come across it. I am related to the John and Bridget Mulligan.
