Lochbroom and Fortrose Cameron's
« on: Saturday 28 June 08 07:29 BST (UK) »

I am looking for any information on  the following Cameron families from Ullapool.
Donald Cameron b. 1771  married  Margaret McLeod b. 1786.

Children:   Alexander Cameron b. 1810 Lochbroom
                  Catherine Cameron b. 1811 Lochbroom
                  Kenneth Cameron b. 1812 Leckmelm, Lochbroom   d.1855
                  Braes of Ullapool.

Kenneth Cameron b 1812 m. Elizabeth Ross b. 1824   d. 1911

Children:   George Cameron b. about 1846 Ullapool, Lochbroom  d.1935
                  Fintray, Aberdeen.
                  Mary Cameron b. 1848
                  Catherine Cameron b. 1850  d. 1883
                  Isabella Cameron b. 1852  d.1895
                  Kennina Cameron b. 1855  d. 1855
 
George Cameron married 1874 to Eliza Mclennan b.1853 Ullapool, Lochbroom.
Eliza’s parents were Kenneth Mclennan and Annie Stewart?

Children:
               Eliza(Lizzy) b. 1875, Contin ROC
               Kenneth John b. 1877, Lochluichart ROC
               Annie b. 1879 Rosemarkie ROC
               Donald b. 1881 Rosemarkie ROC
               Catherine b. 1884 Rosemarkie ROC
               Margaret(Maggie) b. 1888 Kilmorack InvernessShire  d. 1970
               Fortrose, ROC.

Margaret married around 1917 to Donald Cameron. Donald was born 1890  and died in 1972. His mother was Ann Cameron. Margaret and Donald  lived in Fortrose, Rosemarkie in 1924 (may have been earlier) until their death. Margaret died 1970 in Black Isle South. They had 2 sons born somewhere between 1917-1924. Margaret had another son, William Cameron (my Grandfather), born 1913 in Rosemarkie at the Black Isle Poor House and died in 2005. Father unknown.
My Grandpa came to Canada in 1930 and lost all contact with his family.
  I’m hoping to find out more about Margaret’s other children. One may be Donald George Cameron born around 1922 and died in 1975.  I have contacted a genealogist to get a transcribe birth and death certificates and should know in a couple weeks. The other may be Eliza. The only thing I know about her is that she may have married a Watson.
  I’m also hoping to find out more on Donald Cameron and Margaret McLeod. I have census records that place them in Braes of Ullapool and Leckmelm but haven’t been able to find any birth, marriage or death records. Donald disappeared  from the census after 1851.
  I have an online family tree at Ancestry.com with more info from census, birth, death and marriage records I’d be happy to share.  Please contact me if anyone knows more about this family.

Thank You
Vickie

Hi Vicki

Welcome to Rootschat  Smiley

Unfortunately the Lochbroom parish records don't start until the 1790s so other sources have to be resorted to - Kirk Session minute books, etc.  Sad

It might be worth you contacting the Ullapool Museum though:

I have contacted the museum but they don’t have anything more than I already know. I will check the kirk sessions next though.

Thank you
