Hello List, This is a technical question. I have 2 marriage registrations-Applegarth Dumfries November 1843 and Kingussie and Insch December 1843 for Andrew MILLAR and Mary HOUSTON. Mary was christened in Kirkcudbright but working at Cluny Castle on the 1841 census. Andrew's father David was a miller at Cluny Mill. Would Andrew and Mary have to appear in both locations to register their marriage?? Would the November date be the actual marriage date in Dumfries?? I have others registered in 2 locations but never so far apart. Researching in Inverness: McPhee/Boyd, Rose, Millar (from Perth), Anderson--Newtonmore K&I Thank you for your help.

I wish they had all emigrated from one place to NC but like everyone else thery came in dribs and drabs from all over the place. In NC there were some from Argyl (there is at least one Angus from the island of Jura) and at least one other group travelled over on the Duke of Kent in 1802, who we think came from Bracadale in the west of the Isle of Skye. Then there are the Myles.s- we're pretty sure there were 2 and both from Sleat in the east of the Isle of Skye. One came over as a soldier and went back. The other one was a mate of Flora MacDonald's husband. They fought together in the US, on the losing side as usual, and later settled very close to each other in Nova Scotia. They are probably lots of others as well that I haven't had cause to trip over.
I am interesated in locating and identifying any siblings of my ancester Ewen McKinnon B. c1774 in Kilmonivaig, parents were Angus McKinnon and Margaret McDonald. I believe he had one sibling who emigrated to the West Indies. Thanks, Maurice Brown

Walter Grieve Mundell and Jessie Murray Howatson had nine children. My grandmother, Jessie Murray Mundell was the second youngest. Although I have been able to track back four generations from Walter Grieve Mundell I have not been able to find information on some of my grandmother's siblings. I am especially interested in finding information about Barbara Nicol Mundell (b.1877), David Erle Mundell (b.1880), John McNab Mundell (b. 1883), Ashie Howatson Mundell (b. 1885) and Jane Patterson Mundell (b. 1891). I would also be very interested in hearing from anyone with a connection to the Mundells. Thanks!

As far as I understand it - all the MacInnis families that moved in and about NC (after 1770s?) were related. I believe it was supposedly 2 or 3 McInnis brothers and a sister who landed in NC and settled in the huge highland settlement there. (Research McInnis - NC on the net- look for "John" and "Murdock" and I think "Angus" MacInnis). ( am presently in Scotland; cannot look through my "notes" at the moment.) Ms AFN

Scottish Nationalist Television TV SCOTS Bringing Scotland to the world TV SCOTS http://www.electricscotland.com/tvscots/index.htm I thought this wee bit history may be appropriate for this time of year. http://www.fylde.demon.co.uk/xmas.htm http://www.firstworldwar.com/features/christmastruce.htm http://www.kinnethmont.co.uk/1914-1918_files/xmas-truce.htm This last one tells us: "Meanwhile Colonel McLean had come up on his daily tour of inspection, accompanied by the Padre, the Rev J Esslemont Adams, minister of the West United Free Church, Aberdeen. They had just completed a burial service over one of our men behind the line, when the Chaplain, looking up, observed the strange sight at the front trench, and drew the Colonels attention to it. Colonel McLean ran along the front line and ordered our men to come down, but they pointed out that more of our men further along were standing "on the top", and that a number of the enemy were out on their side and gazing peacefully across. The Chaplain, who had followed the Colonel, said to him, "I'm off, sir, to speak to the Germans; maybe we could get a truce to bury the dead in No Man's Land." Coming to a little ditch, which ran along the middle of the field between the lines, he held up his hands and called out, " I want to speak to your Commanding Officer. Does anyone speak English?" Several German officers were standing together, and one of them said, "Yes, come over the ditch." The Chaplain hurried forward, saluted the German Commander, and began to talk to him and his staff. Almost at the same moment a hare burst into view and raced along between the lines. Scots and Germans leapt from their trenches and joined in the eager chase. The hare was captured by the Germans, but more was secured than a hare. The truce of God had been called, and the rest of Christmas Day was filled with peace and goodwill." May the joys and blessings of this season stay with you throughout the year to come. Dave

There were so many Murdoch MacLeod's along with Alexander, Donald etc. The Scottish people were so good at passing 1st names on and sometimes it can be a help but also a hindrance. So far, I do not think any of my Murdoch's will connect with yours. My first one is Dr Murdoch MacLeod b. abt 1742 in Rigg, Scotland and he married Mary MacLean abt 1770 and they did go to North Carolina but returned to Scotland in 1784 after the War as he was a UEL. This one died in North Uist about 1810. #2 was born abt. 1784 and he married Marion MacLeod but I have this Murdoch's Will and he died in March 1822. #3. Was born in 1831 and he went to Aus. and married Lizzy Robertson there. #4 He was named Murdoch Donald and he was born abt. 1851 and died in 1908 in Yorkshire, Eng. where he was a doctor. This one married Isa Janet Marjoribanks but they had no family. So far, I have never found any of mine that went to the U.S.A. and stayed there. I'm still looking as it is such a familiar name in Scotland. Good Luck
