This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: McGregor McGrigor, McAlister, Armour, McKenzie Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/SeC.2ACI/393.406.2.1 Message Board Post: Mary - I have taken your information and then researched some exact dates using the Scottish Records Office - I have now completed all of the research that I can and I have incorporated it into a new Gedcom file that has been posted on the site. I have included FR references and GROS Data references wherever possible. I have also used the spelling "McGregor" throughout my file just to make it easier to spot duplicates - but if that person was found under a different spelling, I have recorded that within the file too. There are many links between your line of Irish McGregors, this line of Kilmory McGregors and my own McGregors from Irvine, Ardrossan and Dundonald in Ayrshire - but I just cannot find the common link around 1760-1800. It would be good to know more about your knowledge of the Irish lineage because I think it predates John and Archibald's emigration to Ireland - in fact, they may have been returning to an existing branch of the family. The possible names in Irela! nd are Robert, Peter, Charles, Colin, Isabella, and John. The names Mary Connell and Mary McConnell feature too. If you are able to provide an email address, I will share any other information that I have. You may also have some interest in Isabella Armour McGregor on the family tree - she appears to have been born in Ireland around 1867 before coming back to look after her great uncle in Saltcoats, Scotland and then getting married in Kilmory!!
