Hello, Billy --

Thank you for your note ... this is a very helpful explanation, and it is muchly appreciated ;-).

The question arose because some of our Lislea Kilpatricks married into Killygullib families, and I 
wondered how far from Lislea this other townland, Killygullib, is.  From your description, and referring 
to the PRONI's geographical index at http://www.proni.gov.uk/geogindx/parishes/par249.htm, I see 
that Killygullib is in Tamlaght O'Crilly parish.

I visited the area for four days a year-and-a-half ago, spending all that time in Kilrea parish.  Looks 
like another trip is warranted, to explore a little farther afield ;-)).

Regards,
Alison
