Hello Ian Thanks for that.It's just what I thought, but when I looked further I think this family emigrated to Ontario, Canada where John died in 1857. My Niel was in Glasgow in 1858 age 31 where he married Julian Mcdonald age 30 and gave his parents as John & Christina McInnes. (both alive) I eventually found Niel in the OPR's which show John & Christina (Christy) had 3 children 1. Peggy (margaret) b. 1822 in Frackadale 2. John b.1824 in Cragaig 3. Niel b.1826 in Cragaig, I think this Niel may be my g.g.grandfather. Just wish I could find him between 1826 & 1858 to be sure! This is a great list by the way, thanks for your help. Pauline

Correction for Ian Hey Ian Just in caase you wanted to add these christenings to the website which are currently as blanks. I'd better get the record straight...

Hi Karen I know we've chatted previously regarding your McG's on Mull. I'm wondering if you'd supply more details of this Donald you mention here. If we knew his age his wife's name as well as the children then possibly we'd be able to help further. I have numerous McG's obituaries from the Bruce & Grey dst of Ontario. In these obits I've found a few mentions of persons in Toronto who know's maybe this Donald is there.

Hi Again Pauline Talk about not reading the complete posting daa :-[ You mention they possibly were in Ferinday Ulva Ferinardary McDonald John 53 Crofter & Kelper Y 2 M Ferinardary McDonald Chirsty 54 Y 2 F Ferinardary McDonald Margaret 18 Y 2 F In Ormaig Ulva there is a Neil McDonald aged 18 that appears in a Gillies h/h with the following: Alexander 35, Angus 28, Catherine 24, Donald 22, and Allan aged 20 a child Alexander 6 mos. This family maybe be the children of Angus & Margaret Mclean. In Oskamull another Neil McDonald aged 22 living with a Marion/Sarah McDonald aged 60.

I've found the following b/chrst to go with this couple sorry Ian :-[ Iona: McDonald John 40 Farmer Y McDonald Chirsty 30 Y McInnis m Feb 19 1829 McDonald Neil 10 Y Feb 8 1830 McDonald Angus 8 Y Jan 28 1833 McDonald Dougald 6 Y Jan 15 1835 McDonald Ann 1 Y Dec 9 1842 The other family consists of John McDonald who m Christina McInnis in KLN Apr 6 1819 M115442, 1083 They have the following children: Margaret Jan 6 1822 KLN C115444, 0166 as Peggy John Aug 17 1824 KLN C115444, 0409 Neil Mar 17 1826 KLN C115444, 0680 There could be others that I haven't found yet.

Hi Elaine: Just wondering if perhaps this is a name to be like McConnell........perhaps named after his mom' s maiden name? Not that I know that - but I have a friend searching McConnells. Regards Sherri

Hi Libby: Not sure if you would connect or not since your dates seem to suggest the family stayed in Mull but have you found or made contact with Kim MacMillan ? She has a MacMillan family tree site on myfamily.com and uses Rootsweb, etc. Perhaps a MacMillan connection - there are many MacPhails, MacMillans, McKinnons, etc landing in PEI and Ontario, some both........ Regards Sherri

Hello Elaine - I have corresponded with Anne and Roy in the past and have searched both of their great and generous websites (also Mull's & Ancestry's), but found no identifyable clues regarding this Donald. His father, Duncan McGilvra, was born on Mull (d. there c.1886) to Mary and Duncan McGilvra (his gr parents). Don's mother was living on Mull in 1889; name unknown. His (younger?) brothers were Malcolm and Duncan. He has an uncle Donald McG. (b.1804 Mull, d. Bruce Co Ont 1905), an aunt Sarah McGillivray McKechnie (b 1821 Mull, im. to Bruce Co 1850's, d.1904 NDak.), also an uncle Hugh living on Mull in 1889. This young Don was living on Lynedock St, Greenock, SCT with wf and kids ages 10 and 7 in 1889 according to his letter to Ontario relies; he wrote them again in 1891 from # 89 Cherry St., Toronto Ont. Their letters missed one another and this young Donald McG family was lost to us. I just joined the York rootsweb list, hoping to find this family there.

Hi Karen My McGILLIVRAY family came from Mull to Canada around 1846 or 47-- first to York County and then to Bruce County. My g-grandfather John b 1825 had an older brother Donald McGillivray b 1814. Their parents were John and Catherine. Any connection here??

Hello everyone, I'm looking for any Mcdonalds in Kilninian and Kilmore and Ulva . My g.grandfather John Macdonald was born in Govan in 1867. His father was Niel b.Cragaig Mull 1826. Information on his marraige certificate to Julian McDonald in 1858 give his parents as John McDonald and Chirsty McInnes or McDonald. I have found a John and Chirsty living in Ferinardary with Margaret (Niel's sister?) and I wonder if they are my McDonalds. I can't find Niel in any census records before 1861 when he was in Glasgow. Any help would be appreciated.

I am still trying to make McMillan contacts and formulate a family beyond that of my direct relatives - Atchibald McMillan and Flora McIntyre from Oskamull. Is anyone researching the McPhail family in Rhuddle / Reudle (spelled differently in the 1861 and 1871 census). A daughter named Margaret married Archibald McMillan - residing in Burg in the 1891 and 1901 census. In the 1871 and 81 Censuses - Margaret McMillan is living with her father Archibald McPhail. The name Archibald McMillan and a son John McMillan suggests to me that this McMillan family may be related to my family - as the naming pattern has familiar names - but then, so do many!~ I live in hope that one day - my web of disconnected information and the dots will join up. Regards Libby McMillan

Thanks Karen. Have you corresponded with 1. Anne Stevens and/or 2.

CONUL ? ,I would guess at CONALL or CONNALL,Gaelic CONNULL, which I found in my 'Clan and Family Names' book. It was probably entered as it sounded.

Hi Elaine, This might mean nothing, but my MCKINNONs who were at Burg, Kilninian, moved (or some did) to Kenegharair (excuse the spelling!) where plenty of related MCKINNON, MCLEAN etc. relatives lived. A man by the name of (now please excuse the spelling again!) Condully MORRISON, some relative of my MCKINNON grandmother (in fact his signature is on her birth reg.), lived in the area & was everything from registrar, rent collector, overseer to server of eviction notices, and an all around nasty man (according to my father.) Wondering if Conul & Condully could come from the same given name? Both are so odd to begin with. Just a thought. Mary in Canada > Also Conul is a rather unusual name for a McKinnon. Any ideas out there?
