Thanks Ian. I think that family in the census is a different one from the one I'm looking for. Donald MacDonald and Janet Fletcher had the following children (they may have had more, these are who I have so far): Coll b. @1826 Renfrew Janet b. @1828 Renfrew d. 1903 m. Allen McLean Margaret b. @1835 Renfrew d. 1873 m. John MacCormick John b. @1844 d. 1871 Janet is definitely shown as m.s. Fletcher on John's death certificate and on Margaret's death certificate. Thanks for your help.

I would suggest that this could be the above 1861 Tobermory District : 2 Page No : 5 House No : 26 Locality : Dulitting House Macdonald Donald 55 Head Boat Carpenter Parish of Coll Macdonald Janet 42 Wife Parish of Coll Macdonald Alexander 22 Son Boat Carpenter Parish of Coll Macdonald Flora 16 Son Parish of Coll Macdonald Jessie 14 Dau Scholar Parish of Coll Macdonald Malcolm 10 Son Scholar Parish of Coll Macdonald Ketty 8 Dau Scholar Tobermory Macdonald John 4 Son Tobermory Given that Janet would appear to be Janet McKinnon b abt 1819 Isle of Coll.
