Surnames: Corbet/McDonald Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/TeC.2ACE/1181 Message Board Post: In the past few days I've come a step further. Thanks to the generous help of a lady in Inverness, I've (possibly) traced my ancestor John Corbet to the birth year 1759, in the parish of Boleskine. Parents William Corbet and Isobel McDonald. It's possible that William was an army tailor. John's siblings (up to 1769) were George, Anne, Jean and Elizabeth. Do these names/details appear at all in the lineage of anyone here?
