this thread is awesome... i just re-read it today....

Okay..... following a conversation with someone in the know. Mike believes his heritage to be scots irish, but a quick search of the tartan websites out there, shows no tartans available for maccready, mccready, mccrady, maccready on any site....


Looks like we'll have to buy him a leprachaun outfit instead of a kilt.....

Dun

According to "The Surnames of Ireland" by Edward MacLysaght:

Mac Cready (Mac Riada). An erenagh family in the barony of Raphoe, Co. Donegal.

(FYI, an erenagh was basically someone who looked after church lands on behalf of the clergy in Ireland way back in the Middle Ages and earlier).

That's cool, cause that's where I'm from, Co. Donegal.

We're back in Amsterdam.... tired, and concert weary.... my dad love's scottish history:

I stand corrected on the McCready theory. I gave it a first google. My dad went a wee bit further:

i've went from rage to bliss in 1.4 seconds...

meant to say last night but forgot... the reason he doesnt have a tartan is because of the above heritage, he's a lowlander by ancestry (my grampas second name is McCreadie :cool: ) most tartans are from Highland clan names although the lowland and border names have designed tartans for themselves over the years... i.e. Grahams, Littles...

The House of Names link is the one i gave earlier in the thread, but its always nice to read it again
