4. Dukes Census 1792 in Kintyre [1]
Sarah - If you get minute could you give a quick look for the following family :- William Campbell b.24 Mar 1750 ( son of a James Campbell & Finuel Morrison )married on 10 May 1780 at Southend a Mary McLarty. The family ( that I have )consisted of an Isobel Campbell b.1 Mar 1782, Mary Campbell b. 11 May 1784, Margaret C. b. 19 Jun 1788 & James C. b. 8 Jun 1791 - hoping that those names may point you in the right direction. Mary b. 1784 married into our Campbells at Kilmore. Kind Regards Stewart Campb
5. RE: [ARGYLL] 1792 - List of Inhabitants on the Duke of Argyll's estates in Kintyre - look-up offer [1]
Sarah, Would you please check for a Duncan Sinclair and wife Christian/Christine and also an Archibald Sinclair and wife (name unknown). My ancestor, John Sinclair, was born on October 8, 1777 in Glenorchy, Argyll, Scotland. We believe his parents may be either Duncan and Christian Sinclair or Archibald Sinclair and _____. John Sinclair probably had a sister named Mary who was born about 1775 as she is living with his family in Robeson County, North Carolina, USA in 1850. A John Sinclair was christene

I forgot to add that Peova is actually Peoria, Illinois and I think someone is getting James McNeil's death certificate for me which may reveal the names of his wife and daughter. Mary
7. Re: [ARGYLL] Epidemics [1]
Hi List Stewart asked > Has anyone any knowledge of epidemics in the Kilmore Oban area .... In 1831 there was a cholera epidemic throughout Britain, reaching as far north as Inverness, and there were Scarlet Fever outbreaks in 1849 and outbreaks of diarrhoea and gastric fever in 1866. Though whether the latter reached Argyll I can't say. Regards Les ========== Na'm b'e an diugh an de [Were today yesterday] ==========

Evelyn First of all, there were no Malcolms, just McCallums at that time, and there were so many Archibalds that the wife's name, which you provided, is the best way to distinguish them. Unfortunately there was no Mary McLucas or any similar name in the listing. There were just two Malcolm McCallums, both married to other women. Sorry that this was not fruitful on this occasion Sarah -----Original Message----- From: K.D, MacCallum [mailto:kemac@tiscali.co.uk] Sent: 03 January 2006 15:19 To: SCT-ARGYLL-
9. Re: sense of humour [1]
Hi List Just been reading the Old Statistical Account for Roseneath in Dunbartonshire and found the following in the section at the end headed Miscellaneous Observations. It's nice to see that at least one 18th Century Minister had a sense of humour : "Here rats cannot exist : Many of these have, at different times, been accidentally imported from vessels lying upon the shore : but were never known to exist more than 12 months in the place. From a prevailing opinion, that the soil in this parish is ho
10. McGill - McLarty [1]
Archibald McGill was my four greats grandfather. Ann Stewart was his second wife. I am descended from his second wife Jane Smylie. I maintain a web site with genealogy information on my McGill family. Ann Stewart, and Jean McGill, are on it. The address of their page is: http://home.comcast.net/~brucemcgill/archibaldm2a.htm My information says that Ann was born in Carradale on the Kintyre Peninsula in Argyllshire, not Perthshire. Carradale is a long way from Balquhidder, even today.

Just two McGougans in the index, neither too promising, but extracted just in case they lead to something useful 52 Longrow, Campbeltown Angus Campbell, 36 Anabela McGougan, 32 Mary Campbell, 6 Angus Campbell, 3 Margaret Campbell, 1 Darlochan, West Division Donald Blue, 36 Mary McBride, 30 Archibald McGougan, 10 Note, however, that household boundaries are by no means clear in the listing, so there is no guarantee that Archibald is related in any way to Donald Blue and Mary McBride, or even associated
12. RE: LAUCHLAN McNEIL [1]
Hi Sarah, Thank you so much for taking the time to look for Lauchlan McNeil. One of these days I hope to find this very elusive man. I appreciate your time and effort Thank you. Warmest regards Wilma - Canada
13. RE: [ARGYLL] RE: ARGYLL STRAYS [1]
Leona and others. I concluded a message to the list a couple of days ago by saying that in genealogy research "What goes around comes around" and your message has provided an excellent example! The last item on your list concerned Alexander Muir, which caught my attention as my husband is a Muir from Campbeltown. My husband had a great-uncle Alex Muir, from Campbeltown who, to quote my father-in-law, "spent most of his life in North America... and was superbly fit - so much so that his own brother stop

Hi Sarah As you say that family may not have been on the Dukes Land, anyway thanks very much for taking the time to look for them, you have been very busy over the last couple of weeks, I have watched with great admiration, and I also admire your personal knowledge of all those small farms and remote places in Kintyre. Thanks again. Stewart ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sarah Galbraith" To: "BT" ; Sent:

16. Re: 1792 - List of Inhabitants on the Duke of Argyll's estates in Kintyre - look-up offer [1]
Dear Sarah I would like to take advantage of your kind offer and request a look up to see if there is a mention of Archibald M, born abt 4th June 1723 in Jura or his son after their name was Anglicised, Malcolm Malcolm, born abt. 26th December 1752 in Kilfinen, Argyllshire. If it is any help, Archibald was married to Mary McLucas. Malcolm was married to Mary Ann Flemming. Thank you very much Evelyn MacCallum
17. Burials Glen Etive & Ardchattan [1]
If burials did not take place at Eilean Munde in the late 1700s, early 1800s (so far as the recorded MIs can attest) for families that resided in Glen Etive and Ardchattan generally, where else may they have taken place, please, and to what extent have MIs been recorded? We have interest in families and events at DALNESS, INVERCHARNAN, BALEVEOLIN, DRUIMAVUIC that we know of. Thanks in advance Bill Sydney

Hi Jenny, Sorry no help to you but I have Barbara MacLauren who married Thomas Stout in Lerwick, Shetland 28 September 1783. I have no idea where she came from but I don't think it was a Shetland name. She died 20 May 1835 at Lerwick, age 85 which implies she was born about 1750 ? I did find a Samuel MacLaren christened 22nd April 1754 at Lerwick, father Daniel MacLaren, otherwise have drawn a blank. Regards Peter ----- Original Message ----- From: "jjenny jorgensen" To:

Hello Cathy I know there are lots of MacFarlanes - I have a couple - so - just in case!! John MacFarlane born about 1810 - don't know where - married Jane Marquis. He had a son John born abt 1840, and maybe other children. This son is my 2C2. ( I think that's how one writes second cousin twice removed!!) I still havemore research to do on this family. Just MAYBE there's a connection??? - they lived at Knockderry on the Roseneath peninsula. She died in Greenock 1878. Lorna NZ

Hi Wilma, We have discussed this before! Can I ask you to tell me again the age span of your Lachlan McNeill? I have a gggg-uncle (so I believe) on Gigha. He was a mariner and, according to the Gigha Kirk Session minutes, fathered at least 5 children by a Mary Graham who lived in somewhat deprived circumstances. He finally was persuaded by the Session to marry Mary in 1796 shortly (like minutes or hours) after she delivered their last (I think) baby! His name was Donald McNeill and as yet I have onl
24. Final stages of look-ups - Duke of Argyll's tenants in Kintyre, 1792 [1]
Just a quick reminder to say that I'd appreciate it if you could get any final requests to me by mid-day on 7th January, and I'll do my best to respond by the end of the 8th January. As mentioned in previous messages, it is helpful to have as much information as possible, including first names, ages and/or spouses, especially if the surname is one of the common ones such as McCallum, McMillan or Campbell. I should probably also give a couple of words of warning about the data - The data I have posted has
