Hello lorimer,

Have a look at Cauley on Griffiths Valuation extracts on John Hayes www.failteromhat.com website Scroll down for McCauley. There was one in Co. Galway in 1855 ...

Matthias Mc Cauley, Henry St., Rahoon. Galway

Have a look at Ballynahinch, Co. Down 1863-4 ... you'll find several McCauleys.

Just watch out for alternate spellings of the surname like McAuley, Macaulay, etc.

Lorimer,

Were the Trimble family from Ireland or Cumberland?

There are no Trimbles listed in the Galway Valuation but there are several in Co. Down.

Trimbles were from Cumberland cousins to the Grahams.
