Just noticed the Baptist discussion. Has this book been mentioned yet. [1]http://www.landmarkbaptist.org/documents/History_of_the_Baptists_in_Scott land_Geor ge_Yuille.pdf "BUNESSAN. The village of Bunessan is situated in the Ross of Mull, the south western district of that island verging towards Iona, and the Church there was known in former days as “the Church in the Ross.� A few miles distant lies the district of Brolass, whence came the family of Archibald M’Lean, the founder of the denomination in Scotland. The beginnings of the Church date from the labours of the early Baptist Missionaries Sinclair, Tulloch, Fisher, and Mackintosh. Baptisms took place as early as 1818, and Duncan Ferguson is said to have been the first convert. Alexander Grant of Tobermory, who evangelised the island for many years, reported in 1829 that there were 10 Baptists and 8 Independents in the district who met together on the Lord’s Day and once in the week. After the baptism of six persons at Ardalanish in June, 1832, thirty Baptists met for communion, “all in the Ross and a few from Tiree.� The Ross brethren were at the time members of the Church centring in Tobermory. About the same time a house which they had built and occupied for nine years was taken from them, and they were driven to worship on the sea-shore, with no shelter save a rock or a hillock. The distance to Tobermory being great-over forty miles-it was agreed that the friends in the Ross should themselves become a Church, and on 31st May, 1835, this was done, Duncan M’Intyre and Duncan Ferguson being chosen as Pastors. Within a year thereafter the membership was 32, and in 1838 the first baptism in Iona took place. From 1834 Duncan Ferguson had been aided by the Home Mission to enable him to carry on Gospel work widely, and he continued its agent until his death in 1882. In 1842 Charles M’Quarie, an earnest Christian merchant, was added to the pastorate, and in 1844 a revival took place and spread to Torosay, the south-east of the island. The Chapel at Ardalanish, a mile from Bunessan, was built about 1845, and held 300, and the brethren in Torosay met at Crogan. Forced emigration of the crofters from 1847 to 1850 thinned the Church, which had numbered 73 in 1844, and the unfortunate emigrants suffered greatly from cholera on their arrival in Canada. An awakening took place in 1875-76, when fifty were added as the fruits of an evangelistic visit of Rev. William Tulloch, Superintendent of the Home Mission, and Mr. Allan Macdougall, and three years later Mr. Maedougall was appointed to the station. In August, 1891, the handsome new Chapel in the village was built and occupied. The succession in the pastorate was as follows: — Duncan M’Intyre (1835-63); Duncan Ferguson (1835-82); Charles M’Quarie (1842-61); Allan Macdougall (1878-86); Alexander Brown (1892-1902); Archibald M’Donald (1906-13); F.W. Taylor (1913-20); Alexander Macarthur (1920-23). Except Messrs. M’Intyre and M’Quarie, all have been Home Mission Agents. Charles M’Quarie, Senr., died in 1861, and his son, the late Charles M’Quarie, and Mrs M’Quarie were devoted promoters of the cause. They died within a few days of each other in 1916."
