MCCULLEY Family History
Recorded in many forms including MacCulloch, MacCullock, MacCullagh, McCulloch, McCullock, McCulley and without any prefix such as Cullagh, Culloch, and Culley, this surname is of pre medieval Gaelic origins, being widely recorded in both Scotland and Ireland. It derives from patronymic McCullach, with 'Mac' meaning 'son of' and 'cullach', a wild boar. Almost all Gaelic surnames originate from a nickname for the first chief of the caln, and as most had earned their position by force of arms, to be called 'Wild boar' would certainly be a badge of office. There is a possible but similar explanation from the Gaelic 'Cu-Uladh' meaning the Hound of Ulster, but that would have been equally popular...Select Audience

I have found in the 1861 English census- Hugh Culley b 1810, Mary Ann Culley b 1816 John Culley b 1840 all born in Ireland James Culley b 1843, Sarah Ann b 1845, Mary b 1850 and Agnes Douglas Culley b 1855 all in Maryport Cumberland. The children born in Cumberland birth records say McCulley ( or variants of). No other records. Searching in Ireland is hampered by the fact that that they were not catholic. There appears to be a link to a Samuel Burns McCully b 1833 Scotland, as he took in Sarah Ann's children after her and her husband's death as his niece and nephews He also says his father's name is Hugh. I have not found his birth details either. Can anyone help linking the family back please?
