Hello. My Great, Great Grandparents were Angus and Janet McIntosh. Janet's maiden name was RUSSELL. Janet Russell was born about 1786 probably in Inverness, Scotland. Her Father was John Russell, Factor to the Earl of Moray, Inverness. Angus MacKintosh/McIntosh was born about 1788 probably in Inverness, Scotland Janet and Angus married May 27, 1814 in Petty, Inverness, Scotland Their children were born in Dalziel and baptized in Petty, Inverness. They all emigrated to Canada in 1833. Janet died 1867, Angus died 1869, both in East Williams Tounship, Middlesex County, Ontario, Canada. They are both burried in the Nairn Cemetery, East Williams Township, Middlesex County, Ontario, Canada The children's baptismal records from Petty, Inverness, are witnessed by a variety of people. John Russell, James Russell, Donald MacKintosh, John MacKintosh. The Russell's addresses are given as Upper Kerrowgair and Connage. The MacKintosh adresses are "there" meaning Petty (I guess). The witnesses could have been Grandfathers, Uncles or possibly brothers. The Children's names were Janet, b. April 12, 1815;Donald, b. February 18, 1817; John, b. July 2, 1819; Isobel/Isobella, b. April 28, 1822; Margaret, ch. April 16, 1825; Angus, ch. August 31,1826, James, ch. June 24,1829; and Alexander, ch. February 13, 1832 I've seen information "linking" the Russell family to Robert The Bruce. I have no way of knowing if that info is accurate. If any of the above "rings a bell" with any current members of the Russell family; I would like to make contact with you. Bev Powell bwpowell@sympatico.ca Strathroy, Ontario, Canada
