Descendants of Bridget Kelligar Cullen (1864-1942)
Hello from Toronto! Over the past few years, I was surprised to discover through my paternal great-grandfather's Irish heritage that he has distant descendants in Newfoundland through his mother's niece, Bridget Kelligar Cullen, who settled with her husband Thomas (1867-1927) and up to 8 children sometime between 1905 and 1921, when they appear in the census in St. John's West.

Besides Cullen, the last names of descendants of this family include Manning, Martin, Foran, Adams,...

researching family name Dinkley or Binkley.
Hello, I am researching my 3rd great grandfather Josish (Joseph) Pynn who married a Mary Anne Dinkley, Dec.11,1817 in Harbour Grace. Mary Anne was born in 1803 and died Dec. 10,1874 Seal Cove. I have had no luck finding where she was born as of yet and possibly who her parents were. I have been told her last name was also Binkley and not Dinkley. Marriage records Pre 1891 Harbour Grace District have her name as Dinkley. Any information that any one could provide me would be a great help....

Driscoll Family Line
Hi...

I'm having trouble finding out the birth dates of my ggrandfather Lawrence Redmond & ggrandmother Catherine Driscoll. (Circa 1850) I have found info on my ggggrandfather Cornelius Driscoll (Birthdate 1805) and ggggrandmother Sarah Madden or Eleanor Duggan. Cornelius married twice. The reason I believe this is correct is because through DNA I found a first cousin twice removed or second cousin twice removed related to this line.

My DNA confirmed 2 ancestor links to Newfoundland
Hi, thank you for accepting me to your forum. I am currently trying to find one of my ancestors who left England. I discovered one, Nichodemus Crocker who was my 4x GGrandfathers brother from Hazelbury Bryan, Dorset. The other is really hiding, I’m 75% from the South Coast of England, so there are so many common names. I do know that my DNA link is from Sops Island. Hoping to find some clues. Thanks. Jan Cowan
 
Researching Brown and Walsh families from Bacon Cove Newfoun
Hi everyone.
I'm putting together our family tree. As is often the case with Newfoundland families, our families are often large, with a dozen children, or more. I am one of 12 kids.
I'm at an absolute dead-end in one branch of my tree. Searching for my dad's father. My dad was John Francis Brown, born in Bacon Cove/Kitchuses Newfoundland in 1931, to an unwed mom. His birth certificate does not state the fathers name.
