    John O’Reilly, lighthousekeeper, was my great-great-grandfather. Does anyone know if the O’Reilly House Museum has information on him or his line?

    Hi all,
    I am new to this site and my family research. I am the granddaughter of Valentine Carroll and Bridget O’Reilly; Bridget is the daughter of Wm O’Reilly and Sarah Bonia. My father Richard Carroll was sent from Massachuesetts in 1905 to Mt Cashel when Bridget died, and remained there until 1916 when he joined the Newfoundland Regiment.

    I am currently in NL and will be spending 2 nights in Placentia (Sat/Sun this week) and meeting Alice (above) in St John’s Aug 23-28). Would love to meet anyone who is a relation or who might have more information.

    (Richard was 32 years older than my mother, thus the huge age gap…I am more connected to the generation after me).
