It was also verbally stated to my grandmother that the place they came from had about 2 hundred people and there were stones there similar to Stonehenge As regards your hint regarding the name Cornelius and his son and etc were also called that here in NZ by g/uncle was actually called Con and Young Con to distinguish the 3 generations of them living under the same roof. The family were all Catholics as far as I know and Family folklore states that at some time past their originals were Cullinane and/or O'Cullinane Regards Elaine Griffith's Valuations: http://www.failteromhat.com/griffiths.php ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to IRL-LIMERICK-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
