Re: - I just arrived on the list. I am researching McKay at Blairgowrie. I would very much appreciate a look up for Daniel McKay and wife Catherine. Also, for Richard McKay and his wife Sarah. Catherine I have the Index of Blairgowrie for 1851 and believe that I have found your McKay family. However, the wife of Daniel "appears" to be Fanny and the wife of Richard appears to be called Sally. I have taken the liberty of putting another "McKay" who also appears to come from Ireland. Remember this is an index only and to get the relationships and occupation + address you will need to have sight of the original census.
