4. OPR Index of Tiree Marriages 1766-1854 [1]
The Old Parish Registers (OPR) are key resource documents for everybody searching for their British ancestors. So I am very pleased to announce that today's addition to the Tiree Genealogy website is an index of all the marriages in the Tiree Old Parish Registers, i.e. from 1766 to 1854. The indexing project was initiated 20 or more years ago by our Canadian cousins and has involved a number of people along the way. It has now been brought to fruition through the efforts of Lynn Clark and Louise M
5. Who's Researching Who at the Homecoming? [1]
A recent addition to the Tiree Genealogy Website (www.keithdash.net) is a page where you can see which families are heing researched at the Homecoming, and who you can contact about these families. From the Homepage click on the "Tiree Homecoming 2006" link, then on the "Research List" link. These are 2 pages that anyone can print off to keep as future reference, not just 'Homecomers'.

7. Ontario Photos needed by the Tiree Archive [1]
Dear Tiree Listers, Many thanks to all of you who already have submitted photos for the Emigration Exhibition being mounted by the Tiree Archive this year. A few photos are still needed from these specific locations in Ontario: 1. Bruce Township 2. Osprey Township 3. MacIntyreo?=s Corner 4. Russelldale The Archive prefers old photos, but new photos that include old buildings, farms, homesteads, etc. are fine too. The scanning instructions are: - 300 resolution - 100% (same size as original photo) -
8. Cell phone coverage [1]
Slightly off-topic, but in preparing for my upcoming trip to Scotland, does anyone have any thoughts on cell phone coverage on Mull, Tiree and on mainland Argyllshire? I have looked at the T-Mobile and other provider's coverage maps and they are not particularly illuminating. Secondly, has anyone had any experience with a blackberry for data in these areas? I know, its a vacation, but... where would we be without them? Thanks, Ken MacCallum

Hi Louise, I can hardly believe that The Gathering is so close that you are now preparing to leave Canada for Scotland. I wish you a very comfortable and pleasant trip and look forward to seeing you on Tiree. I share with you Louise in sending another big thanks to Keith and to Iain for the latest addition to Keith's website. How wonderful that The Gathering has been a focus for all the new research material prepared and added to Keith's website for those of us looking forward to The Gathering and those

13. 1881 Born-in-Tiree [1]
Hi Keith: Congratulations on your website with all the Tiree references you have made available to everyone. I hope you've added a "hits counter" to keep track of all the hits you will be getting. Thank you again for the wonderful resource of the 1881 "Born-in-Tiree" addition. This is a gold-mine for those of us who lost track of earlier ancestors. All the Best, Ann Hentschel, Sarnia, Ontario, Canada.
14. 1881 Census [1]
A searchable Excel database of the 1881 Tiree census has been added to the Tiree Genealogy website at www.keithdash.net. From the Homepage click on the Tiree Censuses link. Also, the 1881 Born-in-Tiree database has been updated and now includes all of Britain. _________________ Keith Dash Sydney, Australia
15. Re: [SCT-ARL-TIREE] Cell phone coverage [1]
Hi Ken, So far as mobile 'phones are concerned, Tiree is not marvellous as there are areas of good cover and pockets where it is not so good. It all depends on your provider I think. My provider is Vodaphone and it is not too good although my sons both use O2 and it is much better. I am sure someone will point you in the right direction. However there is email access at An Iodhlann and at An Talla (where the Genealogy Room is being set up). While writing I am taking the opportunity of asking if you are
16. Re: [SCT-ARL-TIREE] Emigration within the United Kingdom [1]
Great work, Keith. It's equally important to have access to the records where Tiree folk moved within the UK as outside of the UK. When a person "disappears" from Tiree, it's just as hard to find them on the Scottish mainland as it is to find them far overseas. This is a most useful addition for Tiree researchers and, as you say, let's hope that other databases come available to expand this "Born-In-Tiree" section of the website in the future. Thanks so much for your continuing efforts to make http:/
17. Genealogy Room - Tiree Homecoming - Nanette's Page [1]
Nanette Mitchell, who visits Tiree so frequently she is almost a permanent resident, is Coordinator of the Genealogy Room at A'Bhuain, the Tiree Homecoming. The Genealogy Room has a page of its own on the Tiree Genealogy website at www.keithdash.net, where notices and reports will be posted in the days leading up to A'Bhuain and afterwards when we return to our homelands and think of the questions we should have asked but didn't, or something we wished we had said but didn't. The page will remain o
18. Argyll Estate Instructions 1771-1805 [1]
A second book by Eric Cregeen, "Argyll Estate Instructions Mull, Morvern, Tiree 1771-1805", was published by the Scottish History Society in 1964. It is a collection of letters between the chamberlains of the Argyll Estates and the 5th Duke of Argyll relating to the management of the estates. The letters cover a wide range of matters, including incidents, land improvements, sales of farm produce, orders for timber, accounts of woods supplied, and misdemeanours such as illegal distilling resulting i
19. RE: [SCT-ARL-TIREE] 1881 Census [1]
Keith, what a wonderful resource the 1881 is! Thank you so much for getting it online before the Homecoming so we "Homecomers" can do some of our HOMEwork ahead of time. Also the inclusion of the rest of the "Born in Tiree" folk will solve a few puzzles about those ancestors who seem to disappear into thin air at the time of the census. Your website is becoming a veritable gold mine for Tiree family historians! Louise MacDougall Vancouver Island, BC, Canada -----Original Message----- From: Keith Dash

Thank you Les and if I have not already done so, there is also this site for the Brigham Young Univ. which has been putting their collection of family histories on the web. There are over 170,000 and they plan to add 5,000 a year. I have been using the bottom search box so that I can find my names in all the books.

22. Scottish Snippets, Tiree, Mull, 2006, 2009 [1]
Hi Tiree Listers, There is a little article about the 2006 Tiree and Mull Gatherings in this weeks Scottish Snippets. Also some mention of 2009 being the Year of the Scottish Homecoming in that item and in the item about the regeneration of Burns National Heritage Park. 2009 marks the 250th Anniversary of the birth of Robbie Burns. If you are not familiar with Scottish Snippets, let me recommend it to you as a real gem, not just for folk in Scotland, but also for those of us around the world with an int
23. Re: [SCT-ARL-TIREE] OPR Index of Tiree Marriages 1766-1854 [1]
Thanks Keith, it looks like it turned out great on the website. Here's a couple handy hints for researchers using the data: 1. To save a copy of the whole file to your computer, look for the "floppy disk" icon on the far left (just above the little hand). Click on the floppy disk and choose where you want to save the file to, then click Save. You'll see that it is a rather small file, about 150 kbs, considering the amount of data it contains. 2. To insert a piece of the data into another document on y
24. Re: [SCT-ARL-TIREE] Emigration within the United Kingdom [1]
Keith, what a wonderful thing you have done for those of us of the Diaspora. I was very interested to see as well as the new Mull connection and Scotland connection information on those born on Tiree, an updated newsletter with information about the Homecoming..The news about the weather in Australia has been alarming. Hope you and yours are safe and dry. All the Best and deepest thanks, Babs
25. Re: [SCT-ARL-TIREE] MAC DONALD / MC LEOD [1]
yes, it did read MacDonald. We were Macs at one time, then it changed thanks to my great great grandad. So I always look at both. Interesting to me that there were so many similarities in the family you sent and my own. I'm sure they are the same line, I just wish I could figure out how and where they fit together.
