CULLEN'S of Armagh

[paul_mc]

Looking for some assistance

Trying to track down Cullens of Armagh

Owen Cullen (1825 - 1905) and wife Margaret Quin (1831 - 1909)

Had several children

Anne b 1854
John Henry b 1856
Dennis b 1858
Peter b 1860
Elizabeth b 1865
Patrick b 1865
Eugene b 1867  - Married Alice Hamill and had 2 daughters Mary and Annie - Nothing else known about them except they were both school teachers and lived in Diviny,Breagh,Armagh. I believe the rest of the children either died or emigrated to USA as when Owen (the father) died everything was left to Eugene - which makes me think he was the only one left in Ireland - I might be wrong

Joseph b 1869
Annie b 1872
Peter b 1873
Owen b 1874
Michael b 1875
Francis b 1871  - I believe he went to live in New York, USA but have no evidence that this is actually true.


I've attached a photograph or Eugene and Alice
