Parish in Cumber Londonderry
« on: Thursday 28 May 15 12:03 BST (UK) »
Hi,

Can anyone tell me if Kincull, Kinculbrack and Kilculmagrandal the same place, I have seen Kincul and Kilculmagrandal listed as separate parishes see here http://www.ballynagarrick.net/ulsterancestors/Cumber%20Upper.htm

....but on the 1831 census return Kincull and Kilculmagrandal they are listed and the same place..

Any help would be appreciated...

Annie

The townlands in Cumber Upper Parish that begin with 'Kil' are-
Kilcaltan
Kilculmagrandal- on the east boundary of the parish
Killycor
Kinculbrack- in the centre of the parish

so, Kinculbrack and Kilculmagrandal are not the same place
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

Many thanks, so can I assume that Kincull is a shortened version of Kinculbrack.  Also do you know where I can find a map relating to this area. 

I've attached a snapshot of the document (1831 Census return) showing that Kincull and Kilculmagrandal as the same place.

Solved the mystery! It's a shortened version of Kilculmagrandal in Derry.  http://www.placenamesni.org/resultdetails.php?entry=886
