    3. Hello Franklin Nancy is a form of Ann as you probably know already. Is this the Nancy you are looking for? From my Murray Families: 1-045 ALEXANDER MURRAY married CHRISTIAN SUTHERLAND [1779-1857] Alexander, a native of Sciberscross, Rogart, and Christian (Christy) had the following children: ELIZABETH (Elspet), born 1 December 1795 Craggy, Strathbrora (OPR) [died 1898] [married Peter Murray - see 5-127/2] (IGI); DONALD, born 5 July 1796 Rhilin, Rogart (OPR); CHRISTIAN, born 22 March 1798 Rhiline, Rogart (OPR); JANE (Jean), born 19 March 1801 Rhiline [died 1889] [married Robert Macdonald - see 4-056/5A] (OPR); ANNE (Nancy), born 23 April 1800 Craggie [died 1892] [married Alexander Sutherland - see 1-180/1A] (OPR); ANGUS, born 14 June 1802 Craggie [married Janet Mackay - see 1-167] (OPR); DONALD, born 20 July 1806 Craggie [died 1883] [married Ann Murray - see 2-115/1] (OPR); ISABEL, born circa 1808 [married John Graham - see 3-177/1]; HELLEN (Ellen), born 30 October 1808 Auldnan,Kildonan [died 1880 spinster] (OPR); WILLIAM, born 24 September 1811 Kildonan (IGI); WILLIAM, born 24 February 1813 Rhiske, Kildonan (OPR) CATHERINE, born 1813 [died 1885 spinster] (GM); CHRISTIAN, born 29 April 1816 Rhiske (OPR) and ROBERT, born 7 May 1817 Rhiske [married Ellen Murray - see 6-031/1] (OPR). After 1800 the family moved from Rogart to Altandoun, Borribol, Kildonan. In 1814 they were burned out in the clearance and survived that winter at Slethill near Forsinard in the heights of Strath Halladale. In the spring of 1815 they were evicted from Slethill and were relocated to Craigton further down the Halladale. In 1819 their daughters Nancy and Elizabeth emigrated to Earltown, Colchester County, Nova Scotia, with their husbands. Alexander and Christy followed them in 1821 leaving a daughter Jane and a son Angus behind. Jane eventually went out to Earltown in 1832 while Angus married and remained in Sutherland. William Murray, brother of Alexander, also went out to Nova Scotia. Alexander and Christy settled atop a hill overlooking the community of The Falls. The area is now uninhabited but was once the flourishing settlement of Cnoc na Spidial or Spittal Hill, possibly named after Sletill Hill in Halladale. Alexander and Christy are buried in Earltown Village Cemetery (GM/NS). If so and you wish to see any further references please ask for them by number.
