1. Re: [SCT-ISLAY-L] Great picture site for Islay [1]
Excellent photos. Another very good Islay image site, concentrating on standing stones, is from Clive Ruggles' collection at: http://www.le.ac.uk/archaeology/rug/image_collection/hier/bi/si/r10.html I wish I was there! Russ McGillivray
2. Re: [SCT-ISLAY-L] message replies - a poll for you! [1]
Steve, The way it is now we have flexibility. I use Lotus Notes; when I reply to a message, the sender's name comes up in the To: field. If I then hit 'Reply to All', the whole mailing list gets cc:'d. So I vote #1 because I can decide whether I want my reply to be broadcast or not. Russ

Islay, a Scottish Treasure If you believe that the Scots are dour and stingy then you probably have never been to Scotland and you most certainly have never been to Islay. Islay (Eye-la) called the "Jewel of the Hebrides" is the southernmost of that island group. It's a tenth the size of Prince Edward Island but it contains a fabulous variety of things to see and do. Islay's verdant landscape of peat banks, moors and rocky highlands is always accentuated by the crashing beauty of its jagged coastline.

dear list persons the unveiling of the cairn to sir lachlan maclean was covered in the ileach last year sometime (can't remember which one and i'm not in the office just now). if anyone's interested, i could unearth the appropriate article and post it to the list. there may be photos somewhere since the editor, dorothy carmichael did take some with our digital camera. however, since we print in black and white, any photos we still have are probably in monochrome. the cairn is situated near aoradh (pronoun

well so far it seems to be leaning fairly well in favor of "replies to the list" some of the comments made were very well taken: cory had a comment about finding jewels of info in other people's replies, and i would tend to agree with that - 100%. almost all the other lists i subscribe to are open replies to all, and i have learned things from other people's notes. some of you have different email programs that allow you to choose where your reply is headed, but a lot of people have less sophisticated s

Hi Steve I vote a "2" - I often learn things from other peoples replies which do not have any direct reference to my research - The Fife List works this way and is a very active list as a result! rgds Nolene Lossau Johannesburg South Africa
10. [SCT-ISLAY-L] Visiting Islay 1999 [0.982341]
Thanks, Russ for the tip on the image pages. Also, to members of the list, in advance... I will be visiting Islay in late August this year, and I'm wondering if those of you who've been there already have ideas about what 'not to miss', or practical tips for the trip. I don't drive, but I have been told I won't have much trouble getting around, so please let me know what you think.

14. [SCT-ISLAY-L] message replies - a poll for you! [0.982341]
greetings all, a question to the group regarding the routing of message "replies".... i currently have the list set up, so that when you reply to a message to the list - you reply only to the author of the message. the settings can be changed so that replies go to the entire list, instead of only one person. personally, i would prefer to change the replies so that we can reply to everyone - but as i believe in some sense of democracy - i would like to take a poll of all of you..... please let me know wh

16. [SCT-ISLAY-L] McDougall-McNab families [0.982341]
Hi to everyone out there: I am still looking for clues as to the uncles of Peter McDougall who preceded him to Canada, and settled most likely in or around Minto Twp. in the area of Harriston in the Bruce Peninsula. Peter was born or christened on the 4th of July 1824 - source: Gaelic McDougall family bible. He was the third child born to John McDougall and Janet/Jessie McNab. Although his older brother Duncan, and sister Anne show up in the records for Kildalton Parish, there is nothing for Peter. I

If I have this right I should get this back. I am intensely interested in McAlister and Ferguson familys on Islay aound 1765 and forward. This is a test.
18. [SCT-ISLAY-L] Alexander MCPHEE/MCDUFFIE and Margaret MCLERGEN/MCLEAN [0.982341]
I am researching my paternal line, traceable to Alexander MCPHEE/MCDUFFIE who married Margaret MCLERGEN/MCLEAN in 1821, Kildalton, Islay. They had 13 children: Ann (1822), Margaret (abt 1824), John (1825), Mary (1828), Jessie (1833), Catherine (1834), Isabella (abt 1835), Meney/Sarah (1837), Elizabeth (1838), Jane (1841), Euphemia (abt 1842), Flora (1843); Alexander, my grandfather, was born in 1846, but evidence of his birth has not as yet been found. Earlier generations are currently being researched.
19. [SCT-ISLAY-L] message routing.... [0.982341]
alright, i've just changed the protocol on the list so that when you reply, your message goes back to the list. the majority of you had expressed your preference for this set-up, and i feel that the overall benefits, far outweigh any real issues...i wholeheartedly agree with most of you about gathering as much info to dig through as possible - and if it doesn't pertain to your research - delete it! a couple of people had expressed concern that this set-up contributes to a "chat-room" environment - person

Hi, from Diane, Burnaby, B.C., Canada I will vote for #2 as I do like to read everyone's letters, and feel I've learned quite a lot about Islay and Islay families from those I've seen on this list.

I am searching for any information on the family of Daniel McNIVEN (or NIVEN as he was known here) who was born ca. 1742 on the Isle of Islay. He came to New York City in 1770 and soon volunteered his services to the colonists seeking independence from Great Britain. Samuel Eager in the " History of Orange County, NY" wrote: "Becoming acquainted with Washington, who soon saw the true and determined character of the young and active man, he received a commission of Lieutenant of Engineers and was much emp
24. [SCT-ISLAY-L] Re: Donald Jamieson born 1847 Kilchoman Parish Islay [0.982341]
My great grandfather Donald Jamieson was born, I believe, on December 14, 1847, in Kilchoman Parish, Islay. He married Jessie Waddell born in Dunoon Parish January 28, 1852. They were the parents of nine children: John, Gavin, Flora, Ann, Jessie, Archibald, Alex, Donald, and James. My grandfather was Gavin Jamieson, born 1877 at Glenlean, near Sandbank, by Dunoon. I believe his sister Flora lived in Islay as late as the 1950's and that grandchildren and great-grandchildren still live there. I would b
