Surnames: Braham,Sample Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/EgC.2ACE/10120 Message Board Post: I am looking for any records of any Braham's in Scotland in 1600 and 1500.My Braham's fled Ireland Down County right before 1800 and went to Pennsylvania,because of t regilious persuction.They apparently were landed gentry.Hugh is used alot in my Braham's and the old name of Melancthon for a first name instead of a last as the regilous reformer.
