Re: Margaret Hosie
in reply to a message by Kathy
MacLysaght's "Surnames of Ireland" lists "Hosey" as dual origin.Either:
The Norman family "de Hosey" of Counties Meath and Kerry.
"Ó hEodhusa," a bardic family related to the Maguires in Cos. Fermanagh and Tyrone.My guess is that the Norman ancestry of the first source extended to Scotland. That is the source to trace.
