REA/RAE in Kirkcudbrightshire, 16th to 17th Century
« on: Thursday 28 April 05 14:41 UTC (UK) »
I am looking for any data on REA/RAE families that lived in Kirkcudbrightshire during the 1500s and 1600s. Supposedly, Kirkcudbrightshire was among the areas of the lowlands that Reas may have come to Ulster from during the Plantation Period of the 1600s, yet, I found little or no data on Rea or Rae families in Kirkcudbrightshire during this period in the General Register. If someone could suggest some alternate sources it would be greatly appreciated.
