Still following the trail of my Lachlan McLean. His daughter, Janet McLean was born in 1854 in "Ellamlly, Dunbarton" according to the 1881 census. Needless to say I can't find "Ellamlly" which doesn't look as though it's pronounceable, but I can't make it fit anything in my Atlas either. I'm hoping that the Argyll list can help here as I was unable to make contact with a Dumbartonshire Genweb list which is obviously for the rocket scientist elite among us. It kept asking me 'tennis questions' like name my sending server and my receiving server....! don't they realise that some of us just sit down, flip a switch and type....! please help this technology resistant old dear!
