Seventy Mayo Surnames

       This is a first for Q.E.D.  Estase thought about creating a separate blog just for genealogy, but doesn't intend that this should be material presented more than just occasionally.  The following is a miscellany of surnames from church records of Kilcoman, County Mayo.  These names were noted either because they seemed unusual in spelling or unique to me in some other way.  The dates of the records they were found in were approximately 1820-1840.

Aylesand/Begly/Beylagh/Birmingham/Bisgood/Bohan/Bourke/Cleary/Connelly/Conway/
Costelloe/Cribben/Cuddy/Cunningham/Donelan/Doude/Egan/Fahey/Farrington/Finn/
FitzGerald/FitzMorris/FitzPatrick/Foraker/Flaherty/Gafney/Galligan/Gilmore/Gissian/
Glynn/Gready/Greene/Griffin/Healey/Jordan/Keach/Kelikelly/Kogan/Korigan/Lavelle/
Lardner/Lawer/McGonagle/McGragh/McManus/Millet/Moffitt/Morrifsy*/Mortimer/Newd/
Newlon/Nicholson/Niland/Noone/Prendergast/Quire/Rahgan/Rabbitt/Rieby/Riely/
Rochefort/Shaugnefsy*/Shortcoate/Shower/Steed/Sylk/Tighe/Tuohy/Varrey/Vancil

*These names were entered into the records using the habit from the elegant eighteenth of writing or printing a double-S as "fs".
