Baillie (later Bailie) of Ringdufferin and Inishargy history online at: https://landedfamilies.blogspot.com/2018/03/325-baillie-later-bailie-of.html (from Landed families of Britain and Ireland)
Excerpt: The Baillie family are said to have originated at Bailleul, close to the Belgian border in northern France, and trace their descent from Guy de Balliol who was granted lands in Northumberland after the Battle of the Standard in 1139. John Balliol, king of Scotland at the close of the 13th century, was a member of the family. John's great-uncle, Sir Alexander de Balliol, served as Great Chamberlain of Scotland, and his grandson, William, settled at Lamington (Lanarks) and took the name Baillie.
