	Reeves finds in a 17th century manuscript a Patrick Obeolan, surnamed the Red. The manuscript states that, “This surname Obeolan was the surnames of the Earls of Ross, till Farquar, born in Ross, was created earl by King Alexander, and so carried the name of Ross since, as best answering the English tongue. This Obeolan had its descent of the ancient tribe of the Manapii; of this tribe is also St Rice or Rufus.”<ref name="Collectanea p. 304" /> <br><br>		Reeves finds in a 17th century manuscript a Patrick Obeolan, surnamed the Red.
