Robin I have information o K713 GEORGE MACKAY married ISABELLA GRAY [1764-24/5/1834] [c1776-27/5/1860] George of Craigyaclishie?, Rogart, and (Isobel/Bell) in Evelicks, Dornoch, married in Dornoch on 16 February 1793 (OPR). Isabella is the daughter of Alexander Gray and Mary Ross (DC). George and Bell had the following children born in Dornoch (IGI/OPR): PETER, born 30 October 1796 Rearchar [died 8 June 1844 Rogart - note there is an error on this families gravestone regarding Peter's age]; MARY or Margaret, born 31 January 1802 Pronsy; ELIZABETH (Betty), born 29 May 1804 Pronsy - see note below; ROBERT, born 29 May 1806 Pronsy; JANE, born 5 February 1809 Pronsy [married Donald Mackenzie - see Mackenzie Families E227] (OPR/MC); THOMAS, born 6 February 1812 Pronsy [died 11 July 1867 Inchomnie, Rogart] [married Catherine Mackay - see K1544] (DC); WILLIAM, born 14 May 1815 Balvraid; MARY, born 5 October 1818 Skelbo [died 21 January 1902 Rhilochan, Rogart] [married William Mackay - see K1705] (DC). George Mackay died in 1834 and is buried in Rogart. In 1841 at Coul, Rogart, Isabella Mackay, widow, was a tenant, living with her children, Peter, Jane, Thomas and Mary. There seems to have also been two grandchildren in the home, George and Isabella Mackay, aged 10 years and 5 years. In 1851, still at Coul, the house was referred to as I. Gray's House. Isabella, now aged 63 years, had nine acres of land. Her children, Jane, Thomas and Mary, all unmarried, were with her. There was also a granddaughter, Annabella Macdonald, age 7, born in Dornoch, with them. Isabella died at Inchomnie in 1860, a tenant and a widow. Her son in law, Donald Mackenzie, signed the death certificate as the informant. Notes: The granddaughter, Annabella Macdonald, mentioned above, may be the daughter of Alexander Macdonald and Elizabeth Mackay, who had the only child of this name born at that time. However, the census states she was born in Dornoch, so difficult to prove this is her. Alexander Macdonald and Elizabeth Mackay had the following children (MACDONALD) born in Rogart (IGI): Margaret, born 7 November 1825; Isabel, born 28 June 1827; John, born 3 June 1829; George, born 18 July 1831; Robert, born 14 November 1833; Janet, born 24 June 1836; Norman, born 24 June 1836; Thomas, born 23 January 1839; Annabella, born 30 June 1841.

Hi Christine This is great, Thank you. Can you tell me where Evelicks is? The IGI has it as ROC and Sutherland, so I am confused now, which according to my husband is nothing new. The IGI has Norman McDonald and Janet Gunn married in 1774 in Golspie, but there are no children mentioned on the IGI. Is that unusual?
