Ida - the only place I've seen Margaret with the surname of Rose is on that one marriage certificate (her son John and Christina Vass). Everything else I've encountered shows her as Black including her son, John's death certificate in 1908. Her own death certificate in 1882 shows her as the daughter of John Black and Catherine (McMillan) Black. I tend to think the Rose is an error. _________________________________________________________________________ For my own records I have recorded Margaret Black as Margaret (Rose) Black

Ida, Linda, Yes, I agree. Does this make sense? Niel McInnes's mother was Mary McCormick, John's sister. If Margeret and Neil were cousins, then this would explain that, and would also prove that we have the right John McCormick - parents John McCormick and Margaret (Peggy) Black.

Hi everyone, I am trying to sort out dates of my McKinnon side of the family. Ida kindly sorted out information for me re John McKinnon who marries a Catherine Rankin 5th Feb 1772 in Kilninian. Date of death not known. They went on to have Charles who was the grandfather of my g-grandfather James McNair. Charles married Rachel Beaton. I would like to know the dates of birth, marriage, & death of John McKinnon & Mary Morrison who were the parents of John McKinnon. Also this John had a brother Donald who we don't know anything about. It seems as John & Donald's father was Archibald McKinnon. Again we don't know anything about him, only he lived in Sheaba in the early 1700s. Looking forward to any information. All the best, Ellen.

Ida - I found the following on Ian's website and think it's more likely to be Neil McInnes and Margaret (McCormick) McInnes and family rather than the one you show (quoted below). What do you think? 1901 Kilfinichen & Kilvicheon District No : 9 Page No : 3 House No : 10 Locality : Fionnphort 19012291 McInnes Neil 40 Head Granite Quarryman Argyll Kilfinichen and Kilvicheon McInnes Maggie 44 Wife Argyll Kilfinichen and Kilvicheon McInnes Archibald 14 Son Labourer in Quarry Argyll Kilfinichen and Kilvicheon McInnes Neil 12 Son Scholar Argyll Kilfinichen and Kilvicheon McInnes Maggie 10 Dau Scholar Argyll Kilfinichen and Kilvicheon McInnes Duncan 6 Son Argyll Kilfinichen and Kilvicheon McInnes John 2 Argyll Kilfinichen and Kilvicheon Linda _____________________________________________________________________ 1901 1 West End Ruanick McInnes Neil 40 Head Farmer Argyll Iona 11 Mar s/o Archibald McInnis & Mary McCormick 1841 West End Iona, 1851 Nois Iona 1861 Slignach Iona, 1871 West End Iona 1 West End Ruanick McInnes Maggie 36 Wife Farmer's wife Lanarkshire Glasgow 11 Mar McCormick May 11 1855 d/o John McCormick & Margaret McGilvra 1881 Farm House Fionnaphort Iona, 1901 Fionnaphort Iona 1 West End Ruanick McInnes Maggie 5 Dau Argyll Iona 11 1 West End Ruanick McInnes Ann 66 Aunt General Domestic Servant Argyll Iona 11 Widow McDonald husb Alexander 1861 Runaich, 1871 Ruanith, 1881 Ruanich, 1891 Crofters cottage Iona 1 West End Ruanick Kemp Thomas 16 Servant Farm Servant Lanarkshire Glasgow 11 Single 1 West End Ruanick Kemp Agnes 14 Boarder Scholar Lanarkshire Glasgow 11 1 West End Ruanick Anderson Joseph 14 Boarder Scholar Lanarkshire Glasgow 11

In the 1891 Census, Neil McInnes and Margaret (McCormick) McInnes are shown with several children, the eldest being Donald McInnes 11. He's NOT with his mother in the 1881 census. A search at Scotlandspeople brings up a birth record for Donald McCormick b. Dec 30, 1878 at Fionnphort to Maggie McCormick, domestic servant. Anyone come across a stray infant in 1881? I'm wondering if he was put out for wet nursing?

Hi Linda 2 cents worth is alway appreciated :-) I haven't heard back from Gordon yet... not sure where he and Dean descend through. Re : A John McCormick and Margaret McGilvra have a daughter Margaret c May 11 1855 in Iona C115381, 0008 she may have been the reason why Margaret died... I haven't saw her death records to see what the cause of death was. Following them through the census might help. Here's my opinion :-) This Margaret McCormick c May 11 1855 is living with Margaret's parents Donald McGilvra & Isabel McArthur in 1861 Ferry House Iona. From then on she is living with her uncle Neil (I'd ignore the birth location for Neil and his niece Margaret in 1871) I love the way this Neil never seemed to age in the census :-D 1861 Iona Ferry House McGilvray Donald 70 Head Ferryman Argyllshire Kilfinichen 4 Mar Ferry House McGilvray Isobel 60 Wife Argyllshire Kilfinichen 4 Mar McArthur m Feb 1 1820 Ferry House McGilvray Neil 30 Son Agricultural Labourer Argyllshire Iona 4 UnMar Feb 24 1826 Ferry House McGilvray Marrion 21 Dau Domestic Servant Argyllshire Iona 4 UnMar Ferry House McCormick Margaret 6 Grand Daughter Scholar Argyllshire Iona 4 UnMar May 11 1855 m's Neil McInnis 1871 this is where they are next door to Vass family Finnaphort 4 McGillivary Niel 41 Head Mason Aberdeenshire Nashills 3 UnMar Finnaphort 4 McCormick Margaret 16 Niece Mason Aberdeenshire Nashills 3 UnMar May 11 1855 d/o John & Margaret McGilvra m's Neil McInnes 1881 Iona 8 Fionaphort McGillivary Neil 38 Head Ferryman Iona Parish Of, Argyll, Scotland 9 M 1826-1901 8 Fionaphort McCormick Maggie 25 Niece House Keeper Iona Parish Of, Argyll, Scotland 9 F May 11 1855 m's Neil McInnis aft 1881 1891 Iona 8 Fionnphort Seaview Cott.

Hi Sandra and List. If you want to have a look at the area around Ardalanish try www.geograph.co.uk. It contains lots of 'stuff' including photos taken and submitted. They may not cover what you want but give you a chance to visually explore an area. Within the site go to 'maps'. Then you can click on the area around Mull and zoom. If you would rather you can specify you want to search grid NM3417. That will take you to nearby and bring up a range of photos of the area. Anne Maye.

Ida - Connie passed the following on to me. "I've the John McCormick postings and thought I would add my two cents worth. The information that John married Margaret McGilvray came from Jo Curry on some family trees she sent me. I don't know if you have heard back from Gordon, but he'll probably tell you about the same as I will tell you. We worked together lots while he was working genealogy. He and Dean are 3rd cousins. John McCormick married on 2 June 1853 Margaret McGilvray, born circa 1836, daughter of Donald McGilvray and Isabel McArthur. On 1 July 1855 Margaret died at Catchean. She is buried at Reilig Odhrain at Iona. They had no children. John married second 31 March 1859 Margaret McDonald born circa 1839, daughter of Donald McDonald and Janet Fletcher. Margaret McDonald McCormick died 19 January 1873. John and Margaret had seven children including John born 1858 who was illegitimate. John's third wife was Christina Vass, daughter of Wm Vass and Jane Livingstone. John and Christina married 6 November 1873 at Catchean. John and Christina had nine children.

Hi Shane Awhile back you were wondering about your Mary Buchanan and Alexander McLean's children. Although I can't confirm that the children did indeed come over before 1851. I've been wondering about Donald Whyte reference as this was a DC -a correspondence letter. I just came across another, which also is a DC correspondence that could be in error as well.

Hi Sandra, Hi Sandra, I order to get an idea of the area I suggest you try www.old-maps.co.uk When loaded click on the 'Discover your history.......' square bottom left hand corner. When the next screen is displayed enter 136900 and 719200 in the coordinates. This will display a map of the Adalanish area with field boundaries marked. As to what was there, the whole area has for many years been down to sheep and cattle farming. Ian

I can't answer the question, but would love also to know a little bit about ardalanish if anyone has the answers.

Hi Donald, These are the approximate distances between the locations you listed using current roads. It could be that in older days, shorter cross country tracks could have been used. Torrans - Kilpatrick 4.6 miles Kilpatrick - Ardtun 2 miles Kilpatrick - Assapol 3.3 miles Ardtun - Assapol 3 miles I would suggest that all the locations are in a similar condition to Torrans in that the base of dwellings are all that remain. Currently Ardtun is experiencing a building explosion to the extent that there are no more telephone numbers available on the local exchange.
