QUIGLEY Family History

Recorded in a number of spelling forms including O'Quigley, Quigley, Kegley, and Cogley, this is an Irish surname of ancient origins. It derives from the 12th century Gaelic O'Coigligh, a nickname for an untidy person, or possibly one with long, flowing, hair. Most Irish surnames originate from a nickname, this nickname being given in ancient times to the leader of the emerging clan. The "O" suffix has been lost since the early 19th century, in common with many other surnames, and is rarely seen now. The clan originates from the far west of the county in County Mayo, and although there is some evidence of them being dispersed in the 16th century, its main residential area remains in Donegal and Sligo.

Quigley Family from Wexford

THE well-known name Quigley is a synonym of Cogley (g.v.) in Wexford. Most of the thirty-four Quigleys recorded as occupiers

in Griffith's Valuation of 1853 were located in the old Bantry parishes of Chapel, Clonleigh, Clonmore, Killanne, Killegney, Newbawn, St. Mary's (New Ross), Old Ross, Rossdroit, St. Mullins and Templeudigan. There were fifteen in the old Scarawalsh parishes of Clone, St. Mary's (Enniscorthy), Kilbride, Monart, Moyacomb and Templeshambo, and five in Owenduff, Rathoe and Dunbrody in Shelburne. When Coolbawn demesne was established, a Quigley family of weavers were evicted and were forced up on to the slopes of the Blackstairs mountain.

Quigleys from Rathnure have been prominent in the service of the church in Ferns diocese. Three related sets of brothers became priests: Canon James Quigley, P.P., Castlebridge (died 1920) and Rev. J. Quigley, P.P., Tagoat (died 1928) were born at Monamolin, Rahnure; Canon Thomas Quigley, P.P., Blackwater (died 1942) and Rev. Daniel Quigley, P.P., Tagoat (died 1947) were born at Ballybawn, Raihnure; Rev. John Quigley, P.P., Piercestown (died 1956) and Rev. James Quigley. C.C., Kilmyshal (died 1952) were from Monamolin.

Canon James Quigley (Castlebridge) was attached to the House of Missions. Enniscorthy, for a long period and was a noted preacher. He was ordained in the Irish College, Paris, in 1881.

In recent times Rathnure Quigleys have distinguished themselves as club and county hurlers. Dan Quigley was captain of the last Wexford senior hurling team to win an All-Ireland final in 1968.

    My g.great grandfather was John Quigley and came to Liverpool, England from Ireland around mid 1830's. All my ancestors on this my father's side of the family were born in or around Liverpool - but, I would desperately like to know where in Ireland John Quigley came from. Any help appreciated.

    I don't know much about my family except for the fact that we were O'Quigley and we came over to Canada during the potatoes famine to Nova Scotia on the East Coast where we dropped the O' to amalgamate with the Scottish community

    I don't know a lot about our families past. I know my grandfather came to America during the Potato famine. My great grandparents could not keep there kids and placed them in a home for adoption. My grandfathers name was Dennis and was adopted by a family in Maine. His brother who I believe was named Jimmy was adopted by the Fitzgerald family in Maine who changed his last name. My grandfather never spoke of his family.

    Quigley

    I don't think I have any famous Quigley's in my History. All I know is that my Quigley's came from Ireland and went to England and then to Bridgeville, Pennsylvania. They were all coal miners. I can only go back a few generations. I was not raised in Pittsburgh but in Texas. If there is anyone famous I have no clue. I don't know too much about my Quigley people. But, I would love to know something. Sincerely, Kimberly Quigley-Bates

    Lots of Quigleys in Will County Illinois who began coming to the US from Tipperary during the Great Famine.Andrew Wilmington Quigley was among the first: he had 11 children. His children likewise had many children. Not famous, but very large tribe in Wilton Township area and beyond! Lots moved to Joliet Illinois to get "off the farm" so to speak. Just starting to research them.

    My 2nd great grandfather who arrived first was likely James, his wife Margaret whose surname is unknown. Their children were Michael, Margaret, Joseph, Ellen, Charley, Mary, James and Doroty (probably meant to be Doroty, but died at sea.

    I do not believe that these Quigley ancestors were famous. Some became famous after arriving in America.

    Our Imigrant originally came from Dublin then moved to Cork married had two sons then moved to the United States in 1846. I am looking forward to someday before I die finding out exactly where they lived. I hope to see it one day. I thought Ireland was so beautiful. Flying in to Dublin just gave me goosbumps.
