Two suggestions. Below is a link to the church in Killorglin. You may want to see if they have Spillanes or Barrys in the parish. Do you the townland? Was it Tulligmore?

You can also check the online Irish phone book http://www.eircomphonebook.ie/#
There are a couple Spillanes and Barrys in Killorglin.
Enjoy your trip. Let me know if you have questions.
