Sheila,MAC CLURE,in Ulster is mainly a Scottish name ,numerous in Galloway to which location it probably came from Ireland. So.if you're looking in Scotland ,look in Galloway which is southwest Scotland.If you're looking in Ireland look in the northern most 6 or 8 counties.------HONTZ,I do not find in any of my Uk or Ireland books,However there is a well known name HONE that came to Ireland from Holland and was found in Co.Fermanagh.O Hones appears on the 17 century tax rolls of Co.Monaghan.It's worth a try.Good hunting, Joe Coastal CarolinaUSA PoppaJoe@webv.net
