Hi, Well I don't know when the last ice age ended in Scotland, but Cork being a bit farther south, perhaps it ended a little sooner there! Can someone tell me where the Fleming name generally originated? It's starting to look as if a ggrandmother of mine from the parish of Aghada in Co. Cork was named Ellen Fleming, she married James Roche in l865, in Cork. Her mother may also have been called Ellen, born approx l820, not sure of place of birth. Thanks, Colman Ahern, Berkeley. Still looking for: Ahern, Burke, Fleming, Mowett, Roche.
