Cull family from Leitrim

LeitrimFenagh (Leitrim)

Michael Edward Cull b 1839 Married Mary Elizabeth Dunn b 1848. At some point immigrated to USA and my grandfather was born in 1887 in US. Looking for info on his parents / family

Hi, If you subscribe to Ancestry (or can access it at your library), there is a lot of information about Michael and family. He married his wife, who was born in NY, in the U.S., not Ireland. His children were born in the U.S. I searched baptismal records at rootsireland but did not find one for Michael.

The tithe applotment books show two Cull heads of households in Fenagh in 1833:

Cull Thomas Gubroe Fenagh Leitrim 1833
Cull Michael Kilmacsherwell Fenagh Leitrim 1833

Jody: Roots Ireland and the free site irishgenealogy.ie do not show a marriage record for Michael Cull to Mary Dunn. Are you sure they married in Ireland? Have you checked the 1900 US census? The 1857 Griffiths Valuation head of household listing shows four Culls in Fengh parish. Townlands are listed.

@ Patricia… omg! Wow! We must be related! Micheal was my Gr grandfather. Do you have info on his or Mary’s parents ? I am not a member of Ancestry right now. I may have to join again!

Hi Jody, Sorry for any confusion...I'm not related to the Cull family. Just a volunteer. As mentioned, I searched baptismal records at rootsireland but did not find one for Michael.
