Tracing Family roots

I must agree with Sir Robert. My last name,Greenly, is not very common, at least not on the west coast. I found and talked with someone from Pennsylvania, with the same last name and spelling as me. Lo and behold he had been told the same story as me,of how 3 brothers had come over from Ireland, one stayed back there, one went to the south and one went west. So far enough back we are related.

My wife and I are amatuer geneologists. We have been researching the McGraths and the Moores. We have found that I am a 5th gen Washingtonian (DC), On my father's side and a 5th gen Carroll Countian, On my mother's side. We were doing so much research in Carroll county, that we decided to move here. Oh, yes, Carroll County Maryland.
I guess that the Carroll People write much down. We are stuck At just before the Revolutionary war. Could be Mohr, Could be Moor, or Moore. I will just keep looking. Got to be a Scot in there somewhere.
