    3. Interested in any information about the following individuals and their families. Angus MacQuilkan, son of Alexander McQuilkan, meal miller, and Isabella MacLean, was a widower when he married Jane MacKellar on October 23, 1866. Jane's parents were John MacKellar, a general laborer, and Isabella Currie. The witnesses to their marriage were Duncan MacKellar and Duncan Smith. Angus and Jane's daughter, Jane, married Christopher William Sutherland in 1891 and shortly thereafter immigrated to Canada. As of October 1866 John MacKellar was deceased, the other parents were still living. The only other marriage I found for Angus MacQuilkan was to Mary Smith, daughter of John Smith and Margaret McFarlane. This wedding took place in August 1857 in Tarbert. The only problem is Angus stated his mother's name was Effy Johnston, not Isabella MacLean as noted above. However, three of the children [John, Archibald and Isabella] recorded as being the children of Mary and Angus, appear with Angus and Jane in the 1881 census for Kilcalmonell. Any ideas? Also, an Isabella Wilkie [Wilkie being a name interchangeably used with MacQuilkan], was a witness at Jane MacQuilkan and Christopher Sutherland's wedding. Does anyone have any connection to this family? I have information and pictures to share about Jane and Christopher's family. They were my great grandparents.
