Ireland in 1690: John McAfee and his 7 McAfee Brothers

Dear Readership:

In the listing of the <Possible Descendants of John McAfee, SR., who fought in the Battle of the Boyne in Ireland in 1690, it states that elder John McAfee SR had seven brothers in the battle. (Also, the young 17 year old son of John McAfee SR, (John McAfee JR) fought in the battle.

I think it not too far-fetched to look at the seven brothers of John McAfee SR and note whether they came to America...and if so, if they came before/after the KY McAfee brothers of the upper southern states of VA,and KY.

And, what might be the names of these earliest seven brothers? Most certainly family tradition would have been followed, so, no doubt, one would search for at least four names: John, James, Robert, and William...well, 4/7 is just over 50% of the needed names! That is a good start! Now...for a location!
