You are probably right. I've managed to trace my dad's ancestors back as far as 1812. They were from an area a few miles south of Larne, Co. Antrim. I've also found alot more Gingles in Scotland than I have in Ireland, so perhaps they came over from Scotland during the clearances. I still have a bunch of digging to do. :smile:
