Hello, this is my first post. I joined up today. I found this thread in a search online for Byrne in Tullyorior.
I had my DNA test done on a well known genealogy site and one thing I noticed was that I have matches in Tullyorior.
I would like to explore how I match these Byrnes.
Reading through this thread and others, I was intrigued to learn of these matches.
My Grandfather used to talk about the Byrnes of the Bog, and I think those Byrnes were from Banbridge, but we never knew anything about them more than that.
Could the Tullyorior Byrne’s be the Byrne’s of the bog?
I read in another thread that the Tullyorior Byrnes came up from Wicklow.
That’s interesting because I thought my paternal Ancestors came from Scotland. Possibly Burns but if my Ancestry is actually from Wicklow then that would be quite a revelation for me.
