Reasearching the McWithey's can be challenging because of the many variant spellings in the family: McWithy, McWithey, McWethy, McWethey, MacWithy. MacWithey, MacWethey, MacWithey, Wethey, Wethy, Withy, and Withey. One descendent claims that whenever one of the "black sheep" did something disreputable, relatives would change their name to disassociate themselves. I can't attest to that, beyond the fact that, indeed, there are quite a few "black sheep" among current descendants. Provided by Keith Shank July 2016.
