This application was not uncommon the background inheriting property on the maternal line subject to a genealogical condition. A similar situation arose with McCarthy/Welply and further North Westmeath/Cavan in the Ancient Princes of The Kingdom of Breffni O’Reilly/Nugent.

Regarding Irish naming customs, when one sees a surname used as the middle name of a male or female, without a hyphen such as “…Connolly Barry” or “….Carey Sullivan” in the 19th century, was that name, most likely pulled from the maternal or paternal line? Or did it vary as frequently as American naming patterns?
