Balinakill House near Glenealy
« on: Sunday 11 March 07 01:47 UTC (UK) »

Can anyone tell me anything about the history of Balinakill House located between Glenealy and Rathdrum? I believe my grandmother lived there from 1895 until 1902. Her father was Edward Sullivan and the story is that the Sullivan family lived in the house, which is on the estate of someone else (Fitzmaurice?), and raised sheep and Angus beef. My grandmother referred to it as a "caretaker's house."

Hi
I have Sullivans from the Avoca area of County Wicklow and quite probably other areas. Bridget Sullivan married John Niles at Wicklow 1847. Her dad was patrick Sullivan and the sponsor of her first child was Susan Sullivan.
Any connection?
