Rea's of Antrim, Parish Rasharkin

I am very interested in any Rea's that originate in County Antrim, Ireland. I have traced my great grandparents to that county and have received a copy of my grandfather's birth certificate.

I am stuck now trying to locate much about my great, great grandfather named Charles Rea who must have been born in the 1820's but not sure if he was born in Scotland or Ireland. It appears he rented land in Antrim, Parish Rasharkin, Townland Ballydonnelly during the 1850-1860's or longer.

I belived there may have been a number of brothers, uncles or whatever that also settled in this small town (Ballydonnelly) as I have found records indicating a number of Rea's located here.

I would be interested in whatever you or other readers may have regarding Rea's from Northern Ireland.
