Joy, There is a farm called Killipoll on an early 1800s map of Kintyre, but I see that there has been a lot of forestry work and dam-building done in that area on a modern map. To point out where it was: if you draw a line straight southwest from Ardnacross (on the east coast of Kintyre) and another straight northwest from Campbelltown, they will intersect about where Killipoll was. It was also straight east from Tangy farm. I hope that helps - Marcia Joy wrote: > > I have been browsing a CD I ordered - Argyll Courts by WFL Bigwood > (available on Amazon.com UK) It's been fascinating reading, even if I > never acquire any of my specific family information. > > My question is in reference to a place spelled Kelipole in these old > court records.

I have been browsing a CD I ordered - Argyll Courts by WFL Bigwood (available on Amazon.com UK) It's been fascinating reading, even if I never acquire any of my specific family information. My question is in reference to a place spelled Kelipole in these old court records. Although the particular record is recent (about 1819) compared to most of what is contained on the CD (1700's) it makes reference to a place spelled Kelipole. I want to say this is likely the same as Colipole (on Luing) but am not sure. Can anyone advise? All help is appreciated. Joy, USA
Jo-Ann Croft, bless you heart. I don't know what induced you to post something about Dumfries on the Sct-Argyll list, but I, for one, are most grateful that you did. I belong to Argyll list because of my Campbells but right now I am researching the Little side of my family and they came from Dumfriesshire and I was at an insurmountable brick wall and could not get past but now because of your generosity I am no longer lost. Thanks from the bottom of my heart.

Looking for descendents of John McAlester. Born 28 May, 1821 at Campbeltown. Parents were Angus McAlester and Mary McCallum, married 24 Aug. 1820 at Campbeltown. 4 of John's younger brothers(James, Angus, Duncan & Neil) emmigrated to Alabama, but as far as I know, John did not. There was one other brother, Alexander born 12 June 1828 as well as two sisters: Elizabeth, 19 Nov 1825, and Isabella, 8 Apr 1835 who apparently all stayed in Campbeltown?

Hi Joy, The 1881 Scottish census is not online at LDS, however, I have it on CD if you would like a look-up.

Thanks to everyone who answered my question regarding the 1881 census. I think I just forgot Scotland was absent from that series of records. For those of you who may have the set & will do lookups you might contact Random Acts of Genealogy Kindness www.raogk.com and volunteer. A cousin hosts the site & the volunteers you encounter are wonderful. Also, other records - I know I have a 1861 census on line at rootsweb for Kilbrandon & Kilchattan Parish, Argyll. Such a tiny parish, few are searching there! But I have also transcribed 1841 & 1871 for the same parish. I hope to have all three data bases on line before too long. Will let you know when they are available to search. Joy USA
I know that I can get 1881, 1891 and 1901 on Scotland's People. Anyone know if any (parts of) previous censuses/cense are on-line anywhere - for Scotland and er, England Craig Craig Porter Cirencester, UK
Joy, The General Registrar for Scotland has refused to allow the 1881 Scottish census to be available on the LDS website. Presumably this is because GROS is already charging to see it on their website! Alison Scotland _________________________________________________________________ Overloaded with spam?

Hi Can anybody tell me were I can find out more information on Kilmalieu Cemetery Inveraray as my great great grandfather buried there Thank Jim
The LDS did not receive permission to put the 1881 census of Scotland online. You can access it on the government's pay-to-view site. http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk The LDS can still sell the census on CD, but I believe you have to buy the whole UK. I can do lookups for you, as I have that CD set. -- Jo-Ann Croft
Craig, I have found this site very useful: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~relys4u/ Shane Preedy Rossland, BC shane&deb@telus.net
I'm afraid Scottish returns for the 1881 census aren't included in the LDS data. When they first announced that the 1881 census for the UK was available, I tried it, then emailed them to ask about this. They replied that the 1881 census for Scotland is available on the ScotlandsPeople website, so not included in the data LDS have made available. I pointed out that it was therefore misleading to say that they provide access to data for the UK since their data totally excludes one of the countries that make up the UK, and that it would be more accurate to say they've got census data for England, NI and Wales, but I never got a reply to that email. Sigh.

GROS will not allow the LDS to use it on their website as GROS have it on theirs, or to put it another way GROS want to charge us for it - the LDS is of course free! edward Limpsfield, Surrey
Hi list I recommend Angus Stewart's web-site for its excellent paintings of various views of Mull. Even if you don't buy any of them it's worth making a favourite so that you can browse the views occasionally. http://www.mullart.com/ Best wishes Les --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Does anyone know why I can't find Scotland in the Census data base for 1881 at the LDS website? I thought they had previously been there, but certainly are missing now, tho the counties, etc. are listed. Thanks, Joy
Hi Lists Sorry to spoil the party and stop this supposition by all of you. I've just checked the actual 1841 Census for Kilfinichen & Kilvickeon on Mull. In ED 8 pg 2 is the entry for Hugh & Mary McPHAIL and family, including Flory, at what appears to be "Allrat." I'm afraid that the Enumerators 'U' looks like 'Al' in a number of entries and his 'r' is probably a closed up 'v.' However the convincing thing is the fact that it appears between the entries for Torbeck and Ardvergnish; which is just where "Ulvalt" is at the head of Loch Scridian.
