  • I have Reilly's that were baptised in Kingscourt in my family.  They lived in the townland of Edenagully. Charles "White Charlie" Reilly married Mary Sheridan.  Their children were John (1847), Charles (1850), Ellen (1853), Catherine (1845) married to Patrick Clarke and Philip (1840) my GGrandfather.  Their nickname was "the Culbans"

    Does anything sound familiar to anyone?

  • Hi,

    I've just came across this post now. I am married to Patrick Reilly and we live in his family homestead in Edenagully.

    I understand this house and farm have been in the Reilly family for many many years and would love to research our history more.

  • Hello Mrs Reilly,

    I'm not sure if I'm the same Reilly's as your husband.  The only Patrick in my family from Edenagully was a young fella that died from chickenpox (1888-1891).  Their nickname was Culban's or the Ban's which means white in Irish. I know there was another Reilly family that was living close by known as the Pike's. 

    Here are my relations:

    Charlie Reilly (unknown), Phillip Reilly (1840-1920), Ellen Reilly (1898).

    Not sure if this is of any help.

    Regards,  Marian
