Why is there so many common surnames between Lochaber and Ireland? Is it the common way Gaelic names are Anglicized, or is there a lot of family ties between the two? I've been wondering this since my Grandfather came from Lochaber, but his father moved there from Leitrim. The surname Reynolds is common in both places. It really messed me up trying to research the geneology.
