Gregor McGregor
« on: Sunday 13 April 08 19:02 BST (UK) »
I'm trying to find some information on Gregor McGregor who married Sarah Carmichael in Lismore, Argyle  I don't know the date of their marraige, all I have is that Gregor was born about 1764. I have a bit more on Sarah, her parent were Dougald Carmichael b 1733 and Janet Stewart b 1737 both in Lismore Argyle.
I have traced my family tree back to them but can't get any further, can anyone help?

Hi Billy I haven't tried contacting this group as I didn't know they existed, I plan to visit Lismore soon and  look for information in the parrish records if they exist. thank you very much for the info and I'll certainly have a look at the website address you gave me.
Do you have links with Lismore? what can you tell me about the Island?

Thanks again

Hi Anna,
You will find lots of info about Lismore from the website including getting there and were to  stay.
It is just a small ferry trip from Oban you pass Lismore on the way to The isle of Mull.
My Great- grandfather John Black was a Blacksmith from Lismore.
Its a real magical place check out the photos on the website,
The Past Clan chief of the McGregor Clan name is Gregor McGregor of McGregor!,kind regards ,Billy.

Hi Billy, I'm really looking forward to visiting Lismore this summer.
You said that the Past Clan chief of the McGregor clan was Gregor McGregor, that's amazing, do you think he may be my Gregor McGregor? That would be so cool, it makes me more determined to find out as much as I can, thanksfor the info
