Hello! I have just subscribed to this list, and thought I would introduce myself, my name is Carolyn and I live in Davis, California USA. I have been researching my genealogy for a short time in earnest and have a branch through my maternal Grandmother to David O'Killia of Gallagh Co. Ireland born abt 1645. My notes also indicate he was the son of a McTeige O'Killia (perhaps John McTeige O'Killia). My Mom had told me this line was English because Grama's was spelled 'Kelley' and I was pleased to find this was incorrect. I've always felt I had Irish blood ;) So, I'm wondering if anyone has information about these folks. I am also interested in local histories and would appreciate guidance. Cheers from California! Carolyn
