Hi

Hi .. it may be 14 years later and I hope you get this but I am related to Andrew McNeillly you are writing about, he was my Grandmother's (Isobell McNeilly) Grandfather... I was brought up on the family farm in Mulloyghboy and my sister still lives there.

14 years!! Where have all the years gone... and all these replies after all that time... lol

I have an Isabella McNeilly who married a William Rides – would that be the same one?

You can contact me directly if you would like to discuss things in a bit more depth.

Yes. John Connolly (Conly) was my 4xgt-grandfather. My gt-grandfather, who would be John Connolly Busby's cousin, was called John Busby Connolly.
