Background

South Australia was colonised in 1836 and civil registration commenced on 1st July 1842. Irish immigrants to South Australia in the 19th century, particularly those of the Roman Catholic faith, often did not register the births of their children. A number of deaths, particularly of children, are not registered either. This, combined with the limited information included on birth, marriage and death certificates at that time in the Province, presents a challenge for genealogists.

Name Variations

Culleney is the most common form of the name.

Variations include: Culany, Cullaney, Culleany, Culeny, Culleeny, Culliney
