Hi Julie,

Have you been able to progress in your Quest?  I understand that Mary Culliney was also referred to (in our family's history at least, as "The Countess of Clare".  I have looked at the online records of Killaloe for marriages in 1833, but cannot decipher anything obvious.

I am a descendent of Richard from his second marriage (m. Mar 1851) to Margaret Moylan.  They were my gr. gr. Grandparents.

Best regards,

JJ Hay.
