Hi Jim and others, I'm also searching for Sleat, Isle of Skye, records on McIver (or MacIver). Would appreciate any sources for this if you find them.

The oldest record I have found on Isle of Skye was 1838 for my line. I was really trying to find some death records for North Uist (Arbuckle) but was told there were no records before 1820. Do let us know.
