    3. Re the subject of Gaelic names changing, can anyone help with the name McIlreach,MacIllreach,McIlriach or other spellings? This name seems to have died out in the Lorn area of Argyll. Does anyone know if it could have been changed to something else? Regards, Sheila.

    3. Sheila: I have an Archibald McIlleriaich who used Archibald McDonald after Culloden. Gaelic was forbidden, so those keeping records often entered both names.

    3. Hi: I have encountered McIlraith in Canada, I think in Nova Scotia. By the way, my source insists that McVurrich is the Gaelic version of McPherson!! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Neil Sinclair" <neil.sinclair2@virgin.net> To: <SCT-ARGYLL-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, November 07, 2002 10:40 AM Subject: [ARGYLL] McIlreach > Re the subject of Gaelic names changing, can anyone help with the name McIlreach,MacIllreach,McIlriach or other spellings?
