Note: According to MacLysaght, MacCullen was "also confused with MacQuillan," which was, he states, "taken by the Cambro-Norman family of Mandeville, which developed into an Irish sept," and "spread to Oriel," and "changed to MacCullen," and Cullen.
Given that the haplogroup for these 2 kits is I1a, it is most probable that these two members are Norman descendants of these McQuillans.
