Apparently this family were originally from Toberlyan, which would make James Wilcox and William Wilcox brothers. The family moved to Port when they received the job to look after the St Peters church.

Townland of Toberlyan

The first two children were born in Killywilly and not Port. So this gives a time frame for when the family moved from Killywilly to Port; but not when they moved from Toberlyan.
