Rev. Richard Rolleston

Hi,

I'm trying to find information on Reverend Richard Rolleston who purchased land in County Armagh, Ireland from William Powell in the 1610 - 1611 time frame. Powell had been granted the land by King James as part of the plantation of English settlers in Ulster, Ireland. Is this Rolleston part of the Staffordshire Rollestons? Is it possible that he spent time in northern Staffordshire near the boarder with Cheshire? What I'm really trying to do is figure out how my Henry Hollingsworth (Hollingworth) ended up settling on part of the land Richard Rolleston purchased from William Powell. Henry Hollingworth is believed to have come from near the town of Hollingworth just east of Manchester.
