Re: The Rhaa
In Response To: The Rhaa ()

Not sure if it is relevant, but my Ancestor James Brew purchased a cottage that had been part of the Rhaa, in 1850 or so. A small piece had been carved out in the North East section of the Rhaa farm prior to this. This cottage is still there to this day. On his death, it indicated he had been "of the Rhaa". I visited the Rhaa farm a number of years ago, and the owner was a Kneale and he showed me the Deed of Purchase for the Rhaa to his Kneale ancestor in the 1700 period.
