Hi, Jean Whimp sent me your E-mail address for my family relations with the MacLean Family on the Isle of Mull. I am related to ALLAN McLEAN baptised 12/2/1811 at Kilmallie - Argyllshire, 1st son of DONALD MCLEAN (1772-1855) who arrived in Adelaide in 1837, and where the first wheat crop growers in South Australia. The Family came from ARDGOUR (not the Isle of Mull ) to ADELAIDE. You may have seen the red book of " HISTORY OF DONALD &CHRISTINA McLEAN & THEIR DESCENDANTS FIRST WHEAT CROP GROWERS IN SOUTH AUSTRALIA 1838. I have included the first eight pages for you to read. Regards Jim Poole. jbp@chariot.net.au 08/01/07.

Hi Jim, Nice to meet another McLean descendant! If I understand your message correctly, there should be an 8 page attachment? If so, I did not get it. Your Allen McLean (baptised 12/2/1811), is it the same one that married 2/29/1844 Catherine Dawson (1823-1892)? If so, then he must be a son of Donald, born 1772 Fort William, Argyllshire, Scotland, died 10/10/1855 Strathalbyn, South Australia, married to Christina McPhee? I have not seen the red book you referenced, but if possible for you to re-send the 8 pages, I would love to read them. Thanks for contacting me!

Dear Linda, Jim tells me he is part of the Strathalbyn Maclean mob and the "red Book " is the family history (genealogy etc) of that group of Macleans who settled in Strathalbyn in South Australia. I doubt that the red book has made it to the USA, but suggest if you give Jim your home email he can send the 8 pages as an attachment For Jim's benefit Linda Bennion is a top notch Maclean researcher. Jim is planning to go to the 2007 Maclean Gathering on Mull and wants some help on which parts of Mull his people might have originated.

Jim, Unfortunately we can't send attachments to this list but can send then to an individual. As you mentioned to me you understood that the family came from Mull before they went to the mainland. Do you have any date when they were on Mull? If you want to send me the 8 pages as an attachment I'll have a look for any Mull names in that section and pass them on to the list.
