New to this list. Wonder if anyone can help me find out why my ggrandfather is listed on the 1871 Census for Kildalton as Robert McAlister (age 20), but on the earlier 1861 Census (age 12) and 1851 Census (age 20) as Robert McDougall. He was known as Robert McAlister for the rest of his life, born about 1850/51 in the Oa, and his wedding and death certificates give his parents as Donald McAlister and Anne Dallas. But he shows up on all three censuses as their grandson. The only daughter of Donald and Anne old enough to be the mother is Christian (Kirsty) born 1824, but I can find no trace of her after the 1841 Census. Any information to help me trace back either the McAlister or McDougall line would be very welcome. Thanks.
