Hi Neil,
it is great to hear from a PAUL descendent still residing in Kilrea, County Londonderry.
I do have snippets of information regarding some (as yet unconnected)PAULs who were living in Kilrea, Bovedy, Moneysallin etc between 1783 and 1912.
It does seem likely that my PAUL line would merge with your own direct PAUL heritage back in the early 1800s, and I would be delighted to work with you to find that connection.
First thing, you need to quiz your parents and PAUL family elders, to get as much detail as possible about your own direct ancestry.
You should not have too much difficulty finding your Grandfather's full name; the dates & places of his birth/christening/marriage/death & burial. Once you have his details we can seek similar info about your Great-grandfather and his family & origin.
There are several online sources that can be used to confirm& extend your research. You can also obtain copies of relevant certificates of birth/ marriage etc.
Please feel free to contact me once you have some details of your Grandfather etc.
Regards, Peter Carter.
