LANE FAMILY//NORTHERN IRELAND

Hi,
may be of help to people researching the Lane family of Northern Ireland.

http://www.greencastlemuseum.org/Local_History/scotch-irish.htm
The Scot-Irish settled Greencastle-Antrim, as well as the rest of the Cumberland Valley. Who were the Scot-Irish? They were protestant Presbyterian, Lowland Scots. The Scot-Irish were not Irish and were not Catholics. The term Scot-Irish is strictly an American nomenclature. In England and Ireland the same people are called Ulster Scots, which is much less confusing.
In the early seventeenth century when James I ascended to the English throne in 1603, one of his main objectives was to civilize the uncontrolable, autonomous Irish - the majority of whom were Catholic.
Names of English and Sctotch Settlers
