On the 1841 census (Morvern, section 4) I find Donald McIntyre, schoolmaster, living at Claigin, which had 2 households at the time. Two years earlier, his location had been given as Claigan. Those must be the same with allowance for spelling variation. Now all I can find on maps is a place called Claggan, near Lochaline. Would this be the same place? Was there a school there or nearby? Can anyone fill me in on the place? Judith Port Moody, BC, Canada

Hi Judy according to my map Claigan is on the north, north west part of Isle of Skye, just in from the coast between Loch Bay and Loch Dunvegan Lesley Melbourne Australia ----- Original Message ----- From: judith <judith@chidlow.com> To: <SCT-ARGYLL-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, November 05, 2002 3:11 PM Subject: [ARGYLL] McIntyre in Claigin, Claigan or Claggan > On the 1841 census (Morvern, section 4) I find Donald > McIntyre, schoolmaster, living at Claigin, which had > 2 households at the time.
