Lochaber Archive has various police records for this area which will have come down from Inverness which suggests that there might be other police records held in Inverness.  They don't seem to have their catalogue online but their website is here.

Hi JennNZ:

I emailed the information of PC John MacDonald's service record (Inverness-shire Constabulary) to an enquirer  in New Zealand (I am presuming it was you) on 17th September, in response to an emailed enquiry sent that same day to the Northern Constabulary's website.

If you did not receive it, please contact me on Moderator comment: email address removed to prevent spam and other abuses.  Please use the Personal Message system to exchange such info      and I will happily send it again.

Best regards

Hi Saw your post and am wondering if you can help me. I am looking for further information on a ancestor John McQuarrie, who gave his profession on his sons' marriage certificate in 1959 as “Police Constable”.
Not sure when or where born in Scotland but  think is it is around the Invernessshire area about 1813. His son John McQuarrie (McQuarry) was born 8th Dec 1835: Baptized 22nd July 1837 Father: John Mcquarrie & Isabella Gordon: "Sheriff Officer", Dingwall
Would really aprreciate any help or who to contact info would be most appreciated, Thanks Louise Sutherland in New Zealand

Hi!

I have a gt grandfather(x3) who became a policeman in Inverness in about the 1830-1840's - his name was David Anderson.

Can anyone advise as to whether there may be police records from that time, which may include him?

Thank you
