I am looking for the MCINTOSH/MACKINTOSH family from Park Street and MAIN families from both Park and Society Streets in Nairn. These streets are quite near the harbour as both families were fisherfolk. My direct descendants lived at;
MCINTOSH - 9 & 17 Park Street John (m. about 1841) Ann MAIN, children Jane, Thomas, Margaret, Ann & Isabella* Thomas (m. 1873) Margaret MAIN, children Thomas, Isabella, Ann, David, John & Margaret * Unlike later birth records, the register of Isabella MCINTOSH'S 1856 birth does not show her parent's wedding date.
MAIN - 44 Society Street John (m. pre-1841) Isabella MAIN, children Janet, David, Christina, Isabella, Margaret & Ann
I have the census details for the families 1851-1901, but cannot find them in 1841. Nor could I find the two earlier marriages at SP. Any help appreciated?

Lorna,
Thanks heaps. "Coggs" was the Tee-name for one branch of my Mains and I think you've nailed the other two families also.
Many thanks,
Andrew
