		Paul Cullen was parish priest of Wells, Tullowcreen, Old Leighlin and Shankill from 1741 to 1783 and built a stone church in Leighlinbridge which still stands today and is the parish church of the R.C. Parish of Leighlinbridge.
		Leighlinbridge R.C., records holds all the births and marriages of the R.C. population of the above "civil parishes".
		So calling Brian's transcription, "Dunleckney" is not quite correct, it should be Bagenalstown, (or Muine-Bheag if you really want to confuse people.) Bagenalstown R.C. church had a fire in 1819 so their records only date back to 1820.

	Background Concepts
		John Tyndall physicist, philosopher and evolutionist, was born probably 1820 in Leighlinbridge, Co. Carlow, Ireland in a village adjacent to the birthplace of Berkeley, and on the very edge of the "pale" with its cultural clash between families derived from Cromwellian settlers and the indigenous Catholic people proud of their ancient traditions(1).
		It is believed that John's mother derived from wealthy Catholic farmers, the Malones and McAsseys, and it is believed that Tyndall in a letter to his mother enquired whether it was true that his great-grandmother had "been cut off with a shilling for marrying out of connexion," that is presumably for marrying into Quaker stock.
		Tyndall may have attended his Ballyknockan school, but certainly and despite the vigorous protest from Dean Barnard Boyle, Protestant rector of Leighlinbridge, young John was sent by his father to Conwill, then reputedly the best teacher in Leinater, to finish his education from 1836-1839.
