[antir-heralds] Name Help: McCoy

[Amanda Haugland]

Unto the Heralds of An Tir, Greetings!

I am a very new herald in the midst of my first name consultation.  I have
managed to document the first two elements of my client's name (Gerald
Rhys), but I am having a hard time documenting his last name: McCoy.  I
found the name in Edward MacLysaght's _The Surnames of Ireland_ on p. 62,
but this source does not mention when the name was used.  Could you kindly
guide me toward further documentation of this name?  Do I *need* further
documentation, or can I send it in as is?  Thank you in advance for your
help!

In Joyful Service,
