Moira McPhail replied with the following suggestion. Thank you Moira, it is the only and closest I have come to a clue. It also suggests that my Peggy McKINNON may be part of the McKINNONs from Kinlochspelve. This was 1812 and she was of marriageable age then. This was too early for Census so will have to rely on getting back to the OPRs to look for myself. >Hello Anne >I wondered if Drimnalyore?? may be Drimnatyne, which is in >the Kinlochspelvie Parish. >Regards >Moira Anne Maye
Apologies for this being posted to MULL, ARG & Tiree lists because of the mobility of so many of these people. I have two women who probably died in childbirth or very young and they are just at that period when records are not available or are difficult to read. Dugald McLACHLAN & Mary McEACHERN Issue: 1. Dugald 1805 (my gggrandfather) Dugald McLACHLAN m Peggy McKINNON 22 Sep 1812 Torosay (presumably m2 for the same Dugald as above) Dugald is of Kinlochspelve and Peggy of Drimnalyore?? Issue: 1. Anne 1813 Torosay (Dugald & Peggy of Kinlochspelve on the Register) 2. Jean/Jane 1816 Torosay (Dugald & Peggy of Kinlochspelve on the Register) came to AUS 3. Donald 1817 Torosay (Dugald & Peggy of Kinlochspelve on the Register) 4. Marrion 1818 Torosay (Dugald & Peggy of Kinlochspelve on the Register) Dugald McLACHLAN m Peggy McEACHERN 1819 Morvern (presumably m3 for the same Dugald as above) Issue: 1. Anne 1820 Morvern (Dugald illegible occupation) 2. John 1828 Morvern (Dugald crofter Achnaha) 3. Duncan 1830 Morvern (Dugald crofter illegible) 4. Allan 1832 Morvern (Dugald crofter Knock) 5. Anne 1835 Morvern (Dugald labourer Knock) Dugald b 1805 m Peggy CAMPBELL 1823 Morvern Issue: 1. Katrine 1825 2. Janet 1826 3. Lachlan abt 1829?? 4. John 1833 (my ggrandfather came to AUS) 5. Isobel 1835 6. Margaret/Peggy 1838 7. Ewen/Hugh 1840?? I have not been able to establish if the 2 McEACHERN women were sisters or were from the Morvern or Mull families. It seems I may only find out if someone out there has a 'gap' where they may fit or has a clue in the names of the children. The same applies to Peggy McKINNON. Was she from a Mull family? The Drimnalyore does not seem to give a clue to any place in Mull or Morvern. Another possibility is that the 3 marriages were not the same Dugald, but I think they were related anyway. Were they from the ARL branch or the branch via INV and Aryhoulan or Callart? Would love to hear from anyone who knows anything of any of the other siblings. Anne Maye
Malcolm, The only ones I know about are: Ann, baptised 5/Dec/1785 Donald, baptised 10/June/1787 Duncan, baptised 4/Nov/1793 Due to the long gap between Donald and Duncan it is possible that there were other children who died in infancy.

The mystery of Hugh Campbell and his wife(wives) needs further consideration - My grat great gradnmother, Ann Campbell born Teang(Teanga) District of Torosay, Parish of Kilninian and Kilmore, 12 May 1885. she died here in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, where she was one of the several Mull settlers in 1820 who gave this place its name. She married in 1818, Parlan MacPharlain(MacFarlane in English) , son of Peter and Mary(Gregor) of Achnacroish, same parish and district as noted above. Their first child, Peter, for the paternal grandfather was born in 1819. on Mull before they left. their second son, Hugh (for his maternal grandfather) was born in Mull River in 1826 and lived here all his life their first daughter Grace, named for her maternal grandmother Campbell was born 1823, the first child born in Mull River their second daughter Mary, named for her paternal grandmother was born in Mull River in 1830 when her mother was 45 - a statistic that was remembered about the unusal age of the mother The parochial register for Parish of Kilninian and Kilmore states that Hugh Campbell of Tenga and Grace MacColl were married 21 May 1785. The name Grace as found in this family continued for several generations. Ann ( Campbell) MacFarlane's death certificate states that she was born Isle of Mull, daughter of High and Grace Campbell there are therefore three bits of evidence about this wife of Hugh Campbell - In addition to the MacFarlanes, there came to Mull River Allan Campbell (known as Allan the Minsiter, for his piety and his ability to preach and read in Gaelic) he was born in Teang in 1795, Among his children were Hugh (for his father) and Neil(perhaps for the MacColl ancestry). Allan,my grt grt Uncle was married to Mary MacCallum also of Mull At least two others of the Hugh Cambpell family came here to Mull River. - one was Mary (soemtimes also called cAtherine, it seems) who married John Livigngstone and they came to Mull River via Prince Edward Island. Her eldest daugther was Grace, named for her mother, Grace MacColl Campbell The fourth child of Hugh Campbell who came here is less well known - she may have been married to a MacDonald of Mull - her name is probably Sarah - she was known as Sally - but the name is only transmitted by a dim tradition - So... did Hugh Campbell marry twice - each time to a MacColl? Or were there two Hughs each married to a MacColl? Grace - in Gaelic Giorsil - is sometimes turned in Grizell in English - - the keeper of the records or a transcriber seems to have transalted some names from Gaelic into Englih but there is enough good evidence to support the presence in Teng or Teanga of a Hugh Campbell - the family was recalled by old Mull residents down to 1970 when I had the opportuntiy to speak with an old man by the name of MacQuarrie who had stories of them - and their reputation as being people who preserved some pre-Christian customs - and who had a knack for putting spells on people and were thought to be second-sighted. My grt grt grandmother, Ann Cambpell MacPharlain(MacFarlane) was a very mean-spriited person whose reptuation for such a personality continued to be ntoed by her descendants down to the present day.

MAC QUARRY - is the best I can do .At least that is how I pronounce my name. Some in the family still use the Mac spelling. That is a long story with many possible explanations as you know. But there are some here in the states that arrived in the 1700's that pronounce and spell it Mac Queary (and there are further variations). Frankly when some one does not know how to pronounce my surname their attempt sounds like the latter. They seem to have begun their life in the States in Kentucky and Tennessee- the south.

Hi, My gt gt grandmother was Isabella Lamont, wife of Archibald Lamont. She was the daughter of Dugald McDougald and Rebecca Craig according to her 1862 marriage certificate. I have the Census records for her family from 1841 to 1861. The family name on the 1841 Census was McDugald but on the 1851 and 1861 Census records it was McLucas. I could not find a record for this family in 1871. I found a record in 1881 for Rebecca McDougall where she was listed as a widow. It took me a long time to find these Census records due to the different surname spellings but perseverance paid off. I am wondering if there is a reason for the different spellings or if this is a mistake made by the person recording the census data at the time. I have the 1894 death record for Rebecca McDougall. I have not found a death record for her husband Dugald. As I have not been able to find the family in the 1871 Census I assume he died between 1862 and 1881. According to my great aunt, Isabella's husband, Archibald Lamont, was a seaman and she says she was told that he died at sea somewhere between Scotland and America. He appears on the 1871 Census in Ardtun. Isabella Lamont is listed as a widow in the 1881 Census. My brickwall is how to find these death records. As I could not find Archibald's record then that might be because he did die at sea. Would there be a death record for him anywhere else? Did Dugald die in Scotland or somewhere else. If there is anyone else researching these families I would be grateful if they could help me figure this out.
