However, they don't have the name McNulty attached to their surnames. I'm starting with Coyle. I had DNA testing done through 23andme.com. on the website, you list surnames and country/city, etc. I share with a lot of people all over Ireland, and 992 people world-wide. connecting the closest relative is difficult. Do you have a McNulty tree? Take a look at my tree. my first relative was Bryan McNulty. he came to the USA sometime before 1872. after his first wife maggied died, he remarried a Maria Fanning and they went back to Cashel, Chalrestown Mayo in 1888. I'm not sure where Bryan was born, that is what I want to find out. but, since he went back to Charlestown, and all the other relatives McNultys were from Killgriff West, i'm guessing he was originally from that area. In 2011 my cousin and I were in Mayo for almost 2 weeks. we were in Ballina too! want to go back so bad! . hopefully next year. i'm on facebook, Michelle Iuffrida-Beretsky. Maybe our McNulty's were related. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
