Re: Ross Reema
In Response To: Re: Ross Reema ()

Ross appears to be a local name for a headland eg one near Bulgham Bay known as Ross Vedn or Bane according to W W Gill - my Manx is non existent but is this from 'rosh' verb to stretch or reach - however can't guess 2nd component - maybe more context would help?
