Hi Pauline & Ian Welcome to the list Pauline.. As your new to our list I'll explain my goodies are from the IGI fische the M followed by #'s is the batch file #, followed by the serial sheet # available for veiwing at the Latter Day Saints facilities. the C followed by the # is christening information same deal. Your one of the lucky ones and have two possibilites for ancestors. The following ones that Ian sent are the Iona couple. 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. Sorry I don't see them in the census :-( Just don't forget Christina might also be as Christy/Cristy/Cursty etc. Just a thought maybe your ancestors left Mull before 1841. later Ida

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...
