    3. Hi, Am still attempting to chip away at my long standing brick wall and wondered if anyone can help me shed some light on this family. I have: Donald McLACHLAN md to Ann CAMERON in 1826, Torosay. Their next appearance in my research is: 1851 CENSUS Farm of Lower Achnaha Donald MCLACHLAN - age 52 - Shepherd - born Morvern Ann (Cameron) - wife - 46 - born Morvern Alexander, son - 22 - born Torosay Flory, dau - 20 - born Morvern Ann, dau 11 - born Morvern Janet, dau - 9 - born Ardnamurchan Janet was known as 'Jessie' and I believe their was a son John born c 1832 who may have died prior to 1851. I understand they may have lived in the parish? of Glendrian in 1841. I also believe there were two couples in Glendrian by these names. The family emigrated to New Zealand in 1860. Donald's death certificate stated that he was 89yrs of age in 1880 (born c 1792 vs possible c 1798 above), states that he was born Morvern, Argyllshire and that his father was John CAMERON. Mother's name unknown. Ann CAMERON's death certificate has her aged 75yrs of age in 1876 (c1801 vs c1804 above), she was also born Morvern - her parents being John CAMERON and Flora McDONALD. Would be eternally grateful if anyone can help me or push me in a direction that could help me find them in 1841 and perhaps find their respective families. I have tried the IGI without success and so far have no had much success searching these names with much success on the Scotlandpeoples site. Thanks, in anticipation. :-)) Pam New Zealand
