this is my actual family back in those times.. this was our castle.. this is really amazing knowing this is my real true bloodline... it's very stunning knowing this about my blood past.. we also have a small fortress deeper in the region.. this is very amazing to me..
I wish historians talked more about the Quillins in the Dunluce castle. The Quillins were the ones who renovated it and brought it up to it's glory in the day. The MacDonnell's we the ones who ended up abandoning it a few years after they sieged it.
This is so wired because I am a Wilkinson but we anglicised to Wilkinson from McQuillan in the 16th century during the plantation of Ulster because it was too Gaelic and my family now live in mid Northern Ireland. Just wondering if I could trace my family back to living in Dunluse ????
This is my ancestor's castle!! This makes me happy to see part of my ancestry and where we came from!! I'm proud to be a Quillen!!
Yes it is really amazing...Glad you liked it. :):):)..have a nice day!
ConnollyCove You too!! Yes it's beautiful and thank you! I'm hoping one day to visit my ancestor's castle!! 😊
It is Mc Quillan
Earl of Antrim was unblocking the ladies toilets there last time I visited Dunluce.
