searching for info on my ancestry

Hello Andrew,
I don't have any specific help for you but I would like to mention a few points:
--the name McCullen was formerly common on the Inishowen peninsula but is now absent: see my maps at http://cullengene.blogspot.comhttp://cullengene.blogspot.com
--I am currently working on a McQuillan map
--Drogheda is a stronghold of the McCullen name and likely McQuillan is common there also
--see my other post in this forum about a good site for searching for Irish records
--obviously I have a theory that the Cullen/McCullen/McQuillan names may be connected in some cases, and I encourage you to take a DNA test to investigate this
Good luck,
Bernie
