NOTES
- Appears not to have had a family, except for brother John
- Malew burial record for a William Macyllriah 3rd January (1657)- if it's him - places him with the rest of the Mylrea clan of the time although where is unknown
- There is much about the Malew Mylreas of the 1600s and early 1700s that does not hang together so extreme caution must be exercised
- For further insights into the Malew Mylreas, please refer to Mylreas in Ballaquaile and Fildraw
