We have a shepherd's crook and plaid that came from Mull with a great grandfather around the year 1880. I am hoping that someone might know if there was a fraternal society at that time on Mull in the parish of Torosay that might have been associated with these items. Thank you. Nancy

Greetings to all, In the time I have been researching my BORRIE ancestors, I have accumulated quite a lot of information but still one very important piece of the picture is missing. Where is my ggg/grandfather buried? David Borrie was a native of Dunkeld and became a respected and long serving head gardener/superintendant at Torloisk estate on the Isle of Mull. He married in 1823 to Isobel (Elizabeth) McLeod at Kilninian and they had three children. Isobel died in 1831 and is buried in the Kilninian parish churchyard with a large headstone erected by David Borrie. David remained at Torloisk and later remarried to Catherine MacDonald, (marriage record not found). Several girls were born into this marriage in the 1840's and they themselves were employed in various roles at Torloisk House until well into the early 1900's. David Borrie died at the age of 80 yrs at Torloisk in 1876, and his death was registered at Dervaig. A neighbour, John Beaton, was the informant on the death certificate and he gave Catherine's surname as "McLean", but it is "MacDonald" on all of the childrens certificates. I would dearly like to know the location of the burial place of David Borrie and that of his second wife Catherine MacDonald. I visited Kilninian in 2006 and could not find the graves I am looking for there, or at Dervaig. It crossed my mind that perhaps there is a private graveyard somewhere on the Torloisk estate grounds, has anyone heard of this? Not knowing where your ancestor is buried is like reading a book with the last page missing. Can anyone help me solve this mystery please? Thankyou, Barry Howard, Victoria, Australia.

Every now and again, when I purchase a certificate that applies to a List where I am subscribed I have in the past posted the details; the purpose is that if any Lister identifies the information they dont have to pay for a search; they have all the information they need. I have no other information about any of these. DEATHS, Salen McFADYEN Janet (Single) Date: 22 Jun 1860 at Kellan Mill Aged: 20 days Parents: John McFADYEN (Farmer) & Catherine m.s. McKILNON (?)

Hello Cynthia, This is a very interesting question. I do not know the answer, but how old was Janet in the 1841 census also is she still living with Grandparents in 1851? if so how old is she recorded as being then. That will show if she was baptized soon after birth. Are there any siblings living with the grandparents as well. It is possible that both parents died at the same time for example if measles or small pox went through the village - does anyone one else researching Ormsaig know of any deaths about that time. You will be lucky to get death records for the parents. I know on the Ross of Mull, some were recorded before 1855 but certainly not all, and then only vaguely. Good luck with your search, Kind regards Jan Peasnell On Mon, Sep 30, 2013 at 4:49 PM, Cynthia Wardle <levyward@bigpond.net.au>wrote: > Hi. > > I have a dilemma.

I agree it is interesting. I would like to ask some random questions that I think I would want to consider were it one of mine.. Could a child have been still born and another born with the same name? Did stillborn children get baptised. I seem to remember seeing names of still births on burial records Does anyone know the formalities of baptism. Is it the parents who put a child up to be baptised? Would there be any Parish baptismal records? Who were the God parents? When did the parents die in relation to the living child. Cant presume parentage. Are there death certificates for the parents?

Hi. I have a dilemma. I've come across a baptism record that reads like this: '1836 Janet, L.D (Posthumous) of Robert McArthur and of Sally McArthur of Ormaig was baptised.' My initial reaction was that the baby died and was baptised posthumously. However, wee Janet is alive and well and living with her grandparents in 1841 at Ormaig, but I can find no trace of her parents in any subsequent records. Does this mean that the 'posthumous' refers to both parents or perhaps to one? Has anyone else come across a similar record? Cynthia Wardle

Hi Cynthia, That is very interesting! I'm just going to make guesses, but L.D. could be lawful daughter and yes both parents could be dead, as is likely by her living with grandparents. I have a birth in my tree where the baby arrived 3 months after the father's death and we all know many mothers died in childbirth. Very sad story if that's the case. Mary Fletcher Harris

I can identify with this problem, Jean. I have two ancestral males who were cousins of one another born 4 yrs apart in the 1820s. The rounding of ages for the 1841 census made things much worse.

Not unique at all. Death certificates were key to determining which Mary McCormick (first cousins, close in age) married which husband. I think the lesson here is that while we can make educated guesses based on naming patterns and ages and even the census records...it's hard to be certain without a certificate that names the parents be it marrage or death...and even then, errors may have been made on the certificate.

As a general observation, having 3 wives in the mid to late 1800s was not as sensational as our imagination might allow us to think. My paternal grandfather married 3 times and he was actually widowed for over 30 yrs after his 3rd wife, my great grandmother died. First wife died after having produced nine or more children, second wife died within a year of marriage and third wife died from puerperal fever and was on the same death certificate as a son born after my father. Small wonder some of our closest ancestors appeared to be screwed up.

Cynthia Someone more expert than me will answer you I am sure, but my great grandfather is recorded as having being baptised in Ulva and I mistakenly thought of the island and did not realise that at that time, Oskamull on Mull was in fact part of the parish of Ulva. I was searching and searching, with no success until someone in Mull explained the situation to me. I am not sure of the dates, but if you go to Scotlandspeople, they list parishes. You might like to look at this site. http://www.scottishchurches.org.uk/sites/site/id/1282/name/Ulva+Parish+Church+Kilninian+and+Kilmore+Strathclyde http://www.scottishchurches.org.uk/sites/places/region/Strathclyde/parish/Kilninian%%2BKilmore Regards Libby ekmcm@me.com > > ------------------------------ > > Message: 4 > Date: Tue, 24 Sep 2013 15:27:22 +1000 > From: "Cynthia Wardle" <levyward@bigpond.net.au> > Subject: [SCT-ISLEOFMULL] Ulva parishes > To: <SCT-ISLEOFMULL@rootsweb.com> > Message-ID: <00b301ceb8e6$bf251370$3d6f3a50$@bigpond.net.au> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" > > Hi. > > I've been searching on Scotland's People for a birth on Ulva between 1745 > and 1755, but there is no Kilninian parish.
