  • Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

    The two Catholic parishes in the area would be Adrigole and Bonane. Below are the links to the online parish registers. However, with the Sullivan name being so common in the parish, it may be difficult to ascertain if you have the correct records.

  • My Sullivan ( Mgt. Sullivan ) married  to Jeremiah Sullivan. Daughter Catherine married Patrick O'Leary. They were married in Anrigole church county Cork. There records were kept in Kerry parish records; due to living so close to county Kerry. At the time my family lived in Adrigole, there were 72 percent of that area were Sullivans. I have been to the area twice as the Sullivan's farmed in a township just north of Adrigole. I have done O'Leary family back to the 1700's. I am just starting on the Sullivan family. Due to were there farm was; I have a slim chance of them related to the "Fighting Sullivans". Very slight. Joe
