Helen

There was no Mary Henderson in the list. In fact at that time, most of the
families who later called themselves Hendersons were known as McKendricks.
There are just two Mary McKendricks listed, one aged 52 and the other aged
10, so neither look likely to be having a son four years later in 1796.

Good luck with your future research

Sarah

>Thanks so kindly for this Blair information. The first sighting of 'my'
Robert Blair family was a 1796 christening.
Perhaps they were not even married in 1792. The wife was Mary Henderson -
might there be someone of that name on the
list.
I really appreciate your help i.e. location of Putichantuigh and the
explanation of Brolachan/Brodie.
Thanks again,
Sincerely
Helen
