You're welcome. Actually, the name Gilhooley/Gilhooly has its roots in Leitrim with strong presence in Roscommon and Slingo. Though, there are smaller groups as well as I found in Cork, I had heard of the one in Limerick and I came across some information on one in Tipperary another county you may want to check out. I know that connorsgenealogy.com (maybe net or org) the guy who runs it has Gihooley family there. I know this site is by ifhf and you can try rootsireland.ie and run a search to find out how many records they have for Gilhooly/Gilhooley, I think you can still dwindle it down to county without having to buy credits ( new format is ridiculous!). Do have Bridget's birth record or the marriage certificate? If you find it and want a retrival I recommend going through recordsreland.ie, they're have always been very helpful, they're accredited genealogists in Ireland and one of the cheaper sites for records retrival.
Good luck, Danielle
