Jackie, thanks for your email, I would love to hear some of the myths and stories about the family unfortunately the correspondence from Janet Low was not attached.

There are some interesting stories about the family, I have not had any time to seriously delve into them yet but the most notable is a set of bagpipes and chanters now in the bagpipe museum which belonged to the family. My aunt tried to verify some of the myths and stories about them but they are all hard to verify. One story is that the McIndeors were the pipers to the MacDonalds of Islay and the pipes were being played when the church was burnt down at Kilnave. > > Here below is a correspondence I had with Janet Low, another member of this family tree and who was visiting Islay in 2010. > > Best wishes. > > Jackie Holmes. > > > > > > >> On 3 May 2016, at 08:00, sct-islay-request@rootsweb.com wrote: >> >> >> >> >> If replying with quote to a digest message, quote =ONLY= the relevant portion of the specific message to which you are replying, removing the rest of the digest from your reply.
