Michael, the actual spelling is Glencullin - there is Upper and Lower Glencullin (the enumerator would have spelt it as he heard it)

Civil Parish of Kilcommon
Barony of Erris
Poor Law Union Belmullet
Catholic Diocese Killala
Catholic Parish (1) Kilcommon-Erris (2) Belmullet

I think this is the LDS film No: 127905 and that should have Baptisms from 1859 and Marriages 1860.

There is another Glencullin between Westport and Louisburg.
Civil Parish of Glencullin
Barony of Murrish
Poor Law Union Westport
Catholic Diocese Tuam
Catholic Parish Louisberg (Kilgeever)
(this area would make more sense, but a lot further from Ballina)

I'm just a bit concerned that there is no other info to 'prove' the Ruane name against these areas.  Was Patrick a farmer?  or did they live in the villages and work as labourers.  Were there any other children left behind that you could check on the 1901 Mayo Census (gave you the web site - see above)

I'll keep checking.  Happy hunting

I don't know if this is of any use to you.  My family have lived in Glencullen Lower, Co Mayo for a number of  generations and in the late 1800s a Ruane family lived in a stone cottage in a field now owned by my family.  There are still the remains of stone cottages in that field today.  My Dad didnot know what happened to the Ruane family as this would have been in my great-grandmother's time.  He assumed that the Ruane family had died out.

The 1901 Leitrim Roscommon census site is up and running again now:

Shows a Pat Ruane 58 yrs in Glencullin lower with wife Bridget and a family of several children including a John aged 12 yrs and a Michael 9 yrs.  :(  That puts that one out of the picture.

Hi everyone
I have Ruane in my family tree, my mother in law was a Ruane from Lismulvee. Her parents were
James Ruane born 1876
Mary Connor born 1878.
I found them on The census, but cannot find any further info regarding Mary. James I have found on LDS site and I know that 2 of his sisters Maimie and another poss Catherine went to USA but they are proving difficult.
Does anyone know how I can find out how they got to USA and when?
James parents were John Ruane born about 1848 and Margaret Walsh. I would love find any info re John as at the moment I have nothing. How can I find a marriage cert for them
All these questions!!
