: any information going back plus dates. Hi Martina; I can tell you that my Finns lived in the Townland of Lisduff (Fairymount area). Directly across the road from the old Finn homestead lived a family of Regans. This family of Regans owned and operated a large tractor company in the nearby town of Frenchpark. One of the Regan girls (Philomena Regan) came to the U.S and married a Brennan. Philomena is recently widowed and lives in Middletown, New Jersey. A search of the Griffiths Valuation on this site (which is complete for your area of interest) in the civil parish of Tibohine, reveals 2 Cullinanes and 2 Cullinans. The Griffiths Valuation data on this site represents the time period between 1857-1858. Unfortunately, a search of the Elphin Census(1749) for all of Roscommon reveals only 1 Cullinan in the townland of Charlestown, parish of Killmore. I centered my searching on your cullinan surname however, needless to say, you can do the same search on Regan and additionally in the 1901 Census. Good luck with your research. Ed Finn
