Trying to find McNeilly

I am a McNeilly, originally from Glasgow. My grandparents were Peter and Margaret McNeilly. His Father and Grandfather were also Peters and were from Northern Ireland. My dad was Joseph McNeilly. As there are only a few hundred McNeilly's on Genes Reunited I am always on the lookout for people with my surname just in case they may be connected ! Myself and two of my three brothers live in Australia and the other two from our family (a sister and brother ) live in England so we find it hard to track down our McNeilly relatives in Scotland , Ireland and possibly England. Anything anyone can tell me about their McNeilly's will be helpful.

Hi, my fathers mother was Esther Leebody (nee Mcneilly)..I know very little about her apart from the fact she lived in Larne Northern Ireland & I think she may have had 2 sisters...Fan & Molly...as far as I know Molly lived in Stranraer...Esther emigrated to New Zealand. I'm trying to trace any family of my father Joseph Robinson Leebdy...his father also had the same name.
