Antoin MacGabhann gave me the following details for contacting the family. Felim was his first fiddle student in Antoin's Ashbourne home.

Felims parents are Padraig and Maire Ó Raghallaigh, Barr a Tulaigh, Rathmoylan Co Meath. The family are Nóra (fiddle), Áine (fiddle), Micheál (concertina) and Mac Dara (fiddle). Felim was married to Yvonne (Goff) and they have two children Pádraig (7) and Sorcha (6). Felim was 41.
