Hi,
I was born and raised in Belfast as well. My fathers name was Patrick Joseph McKee. The McKee name is originally found in the Glenavy/ Balinderry area around the shores of Lough Neagh. I have found McKees there back to 1660 and the Hearth Money Rolls. We wandered into Belfast around 1900. Drop me a line Im curious to see if we are related.
