Ronnie Parker my extended Quillen’s made it up to Johnson & Morgan Counties. Great(4)grandfather Teague Quillen V (1772-1860) left his family in Scott County ca 1815 and headed to KY, remarried and raised another entire brood. Kids included: Teague VI, Henry, William, James, Richard, Solomon & some girls

Jack 'Pete' Templeton that's my line. Teague V marries Mary Jane (Polly) Sanders and they had Teague VI. He marries Jane T Gibson and has my 2nd great grandfather, Creed M Quillen who marries Mary Ellen Hammes. He moves to California as a widow 1910-1920. That made the Quillens from shore to shore in the USA.😉

My line goes to Teague immigrant from Ireland to Maryland in 1615. Some spread to NC then to Ky and Tn from there. However my line went to Ohio in Tuscawarus County (Northeast Ohio) where they still remain but my family line moved to the Dayton Oh region and dispersed from there.

🙋🏼♀️. I would love to solve the Teague dilemma between Teague 1615 and Teague 1772, father of John Quillin born 1793.

Nancy Quillin Long we need more direct men with Quillin/Quillen names so the paternal lines are linked to do the Y-111 dna and join the McQuillan project on Familytreedna. It seems many of the lines are producing women and the bloodlines are dwindling per the management of the McQuillan project.
There are some new strides and the more dna collection the more we can connect and unravel the similarities in our lineages. Maybe one day solve Teague.
There is also a Glenravel DNA project you can join or if you are on Gedmatch you can join there as well. There are known people in that group that have lived in Ireland and had relatives come to US or Canada and move back that have documented proof of their lines and also the connections to the Castle McQuillan clan as well.
So if you have a Dad, uncle, grandparent etc with the Quillin name and they are willing to test it may help us all in the long run to solve this mystery.
Also there were 3 skeletons of men from 3000 years ago found recently on Rathlin Island and a female found recently in Belfast dating back 5200 years. My Uncles test matched dna from Male #1. This has prompted the project to look at others to see if it could be a strong enough connection to the McQuillans being actual Tribal people of Ireland versus being invaders of the Norman DeMandevilles as the expected but not proven theory stands in their history books currently.
It may take a village but I too hope to connect Teague. With no records from that time currently available dna may be the answer for now.
However they did just come across 300 years of papers stored in Belfast dating from 1700 back of baptism records they are hoping to get entered online. But no one can say when this will happen or how long.

Great information! Unfortunately, I only have female Quillin relatives left. My dad passed away in 1998 and had 2 sisters. My brother passed away….but…he had 2 girls and a son 🤔
