Is that a local variant of toiliú, or perhaps the genitive of toil?

Context, please!
I suspect the word is actually oiliúna:

Is foirm de oiliúint atá in oiliúna.
oiliúint [ainm briathartha][ainmfhocal baininscneach]
bia, beatha, cothú, tabhairt suas (leanbh a chur ar oiliúint); traenáil, múineadh (oiliúint choirp agus aigne).

that would yield an t-oiliúna with the definite article.

Tá brón orm. An abairt: "Arae ba dhuine é nach raibh bara na himirce riamh faoi, agus ní thabharfadh sé an tuairt seo go héag air féin dá thoiliúna féin.".

toiliú [ainm briathartha][ainmfhocal firinscneach]
aontú (toiliú le rud; thoiligh sé é a dhéanamh).


I have a niggling feeling that "dá thoiliúna" may be a grammatical form which has passed out of speech.

Is focail é "toiliú".

If you wanted to say "OUR consenting":

Ár toiliúna
