    1. Hunters of Buteshire

    3. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Hunter Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/SeC.2ACI/445 Message Board Post: Hi all, I am interested in compiling an account of the Hunter families who lived in the Islands of Buteshire: Bute, Arran, Pladda, Holy Isle the Cumbraes etc. I am not researching a particular line but am interested in finding out about all families names Hunter who lived in these areas, where they lived, how many generations they were in the islands, how they came to be there, what jobs they had etc. In fact anything about these Island Hunters. If you are a Hunter or have Hunter relatives who lived in any of these islands I would be extremely grateful if you would give me an outline of their residence in Buteshire. As you may know, the Hunters are traditionally considered to be a sept of the Stuarts of Bute but the reasons why are rarely mentioned in 'Clan' Books. I would like to find out the extent of Hunter residence in these Stuart territories and about their connection with the Stuarts. Any information you may have on these subjects would be fantastic. Thanks, Calum.

    1. IRVING name

    3. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/SeC.2ACI/443 Message Board Post: Family lore has several possible places for the birthplace of my GGgrandfather, Thomas IRVING, one of which is Arran. I have not found any Irvings there in my searches so far. He would have been born about 1820-1830. Has anyone run across Irvings in their research on Arran. I'm wondering if that could be a misspelling or misinterpratation of Annan in Dumfries where ther do seem to be Irvings but not mine so far. Thanks Sandie

    1. BUCHANAN family from Rothesay to Boston

    3. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Buchanan, Downie, Henderson, Sharp Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/SeC.2ACI/442 Message Board Post: I am tracing the Buchanan family who lived in Rothesay who emigrated in the late 1800's to Boston. I am trying to determine if they came from Doune in Perth to Rothesay. I have: William N. Buchanan, b.4/11/1861 Rothesay, d.11/28/1924 Boston. His parents were Charles Buchanan b.2/17/1829 Rothesay d.1/5/1869 and Janet Sharp b.1829 d.1911 Rothesay. His parents were Colin Buchanan d.9/7/1860 Rothesay and Catherine Downie d.5/17/1864. I believe Colin may have been born in Doune, but I'm not sure and I am trying to trace back further towards the clan around Loch Lomond. I believe Colin's parents were Andrew Buchanan and Florence Henderson [not the Brady Bunch!] but I have no dates for them, nor locations, although they may have been married in Kilmadock, Perth 4/3/1779. If you have any connections or information about this line, please let me know. Karen Clickner

    1. McALLISTER, WILSON, BRIGHT STOCKS
    2. Ian Jones

    3. Hello everyone Just re-listing my Bute interests in case anyone has any knowledge of them or possible connections. Christina H. McALLISTER was born on Bute about 1811. In 1840 she emigrated to Sydney, Australia with her husband, James WILSON, and their son James aboard the ship "Joseph Cunard". The family may have been living in Greenoch before they left. The IGI has a Christina McALISTER being born at Cumun (Parish?), Bute in 1811. Relative: Mary Florence BRIGHT STOCKS. Does anyone have a connection with this family? Can anyone throw any light on the location Cumun? Is it a parish? -- Ian Jones Brisbane, Queensland, Australia
