Rob Cullen's CULLEN Family Page

Hi, I'm Rob CULLEN, of Auckland, NEW ZEALAND. This is my attempt to track down some of the families history... and basically I'm about to give up. :) Well maybe for this year....

JULY 2009

DEFINITELY NEED TO MOVE THIS WEB SITE - Geocities closing down - So which country do we blame the recession on again... :-) Anyone know any good free web hosting sites ?

MAY 2009

( 1 ) Mum and Dad are safely are now inmates of a very nice rest home :-)

( 2 ) Geocities - are about to close these pages down - I'm going to need to go somewhere else for (my mother is Scottish...) free !!!

My father, Richard ( Dick or Dickie ) Cullen was born in Co. Wexford, Ireland. His father was James Cullen [ born Bannow Co Wexford 1885 ] and James was the name his grandfather too... Gotta love those James's. Dads Mother was a Bridget Jones [ 1890 - 1974 ] and Dad was one of 13 children. I have put together a VERY rough CULLEN FAMILY TREE.... ( Slightly Tweaked and reopened 26/10/00 - tweaked again Oct 2001 ) TO CULLEN FAMILY TREE

Other SURNAMES that have occured in my travels are...Jordan, Furlong, McDermott, and Jones. UPDATED - blimmin lots...

Below is the inscription on the Cullen gravestone in Clongeen [ + a link to a photo of it ].
