    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.

      We did not know that! It would be great to learn more about the history of Dunluce Castle so we agree with you there!

    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 ????

    • @benwilkinson9721
      @benwilkinson9721 5 лет назад +1
