McCOLL from Lismore to Jo'burg
« on: Saturday 29 July 06 02:05 BST (UK) »
Great aunt Jane Renwick FORREST from Hamilton, Lanarkshire married in South Afria in 1916 to  Duncan McCOLL ( 1871 - 1940) a mason born in LISMORE. She was his 2nd wife .
His parents are listed as John McCOLL & Annie McCOLL.
The family home seems to have been BRYLAN CROFT, ACHINDUIN, LISMORE. Does it still exist?

Duncan's  1st wife Rachel ROBERTSON had contracted TB and died aged only 38 in Glasgow 1909 leaving him a widower with 2 small boys :-
Duncan Robertson McCOLL b 8 Feb 1902 who remained in Johannesburg and
John James McCOLL b 23 Apr 1906 who resided at Rose Cottage,Ferndonald,Sleat,Isle of Skye when his father died in Johannesburg in January 1940 aged 69 but had moved to Albion House,Cardoness Street,Dumfries by 1963.Alas the trail has grown cold.
Any clues to this family past & present much appreciated.
