Thank you all the kind people who have been helping chase up on my elusive
ancestor Catherine McLeay of Applecross who married John Gollan. We have
established that a Catherine McLeay married a Donald Gollan and they lived
at Lonbain north of Applecross and can be found in the 1851,1861, 1871, 1881
& 1891 census and that she is the sister of ancestor of Iain McLennan and
myself. However we believe now that she had a sister of the same name who
also married a Gollan.

We are looking for help re parish registers, census.....anything...
