Hi Jim ' .. a Flora McPhail born at Uluvalt, sometimes Ulvalt, on Mull. Is it possible that Allratt could be Ulvalt?' Anything is possible in interpreting hanbdwriting. Also, some of these records were dodgily recorded in the first place with someone unfamiliar interpreting oral information. You can also have someone 'official' translating gaelic into english .. or somewhere in between. Anne Maye

The name is Ulva and it is a small island to the west side of the Isle of Mull Jean ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brian Maye" <bmaye@ozemail.com.au> To: <SCT-ARGYLL-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, April 07, 2003 5:30 AM Subject: [ARGYLL] Spelling > Hi Jim > > ' .. a Flora McPhail born at Uluvalt, sometimes Ulvalt, on > Mull.
