    1. [NYROCKLA] Gillis/Taylor on Kakiate Patent
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: cbadsue Surnames: Gillis. Taylor, Sutherland Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.newyork.counties.rockland/3403/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Looking for information regarding the family of Duncan Taylor (1698-1775) and Mary Gillis (1700-1790). Both Duncan and Mary immigrated from Islay, Scotland to New York in 1738. I believe they were on the Kakiate Patent prior to moving to Argyle. They eventually settled in Argyle, New York. Mary is the daughter of Elizabeth Sutherland and Alexander Gillis. Alexander died in about 1737 and is buried in Bowmore, Islay. Elizabeth immigrated with Mary and several other children. I have no information yet on Duncan's ancestors. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
