>From OPR....
....OPR Fodderty 11 Aug 1827 A son born to Alexander Leslie and Jean
Stevenson, Balblair Island, named Andrew.

This baby was named Andrew Conan Leslie if he is my ancestor.... and it
looks likely. Is Balblair Island on or near the Conan Estate?? The family
was lax fishing, recently in Beauly and to be in Lewis on Mackenzie rivers.
Any suggestions or local knowledge would be very intersting and possibly
even helpful!

Thanks
