Try the following website:-

Type Ros Davies Co Down Ireland Research Site into your searchbar.  I came across this site just recently and found it very interesting.  In fact it was that informative I didn't get to bed all night :) :)

It's worth a try.

Glasgow - Northern Ireland/Kilbirnie Scotland
any many more surnames
