Hi Angela,

Can I take you up on your very kind offer?

I am looking for the christening of Mary Ann McLure, Rosskeen, June 25, 1840.

I am hoping that there may be more information in the register than appears in the OPR CD's.  My William McLure and Flora McIntyre travelled up to Rosskeen for the birth of their first daughter from the Loch Awe area in Argyll.  Why go all that way?  I suspect that either Flora or William had Family there - but I have never been able to prove it.

TIA!
Debbie

Hello Angela

If you have time and don't mind...

Please could you look for the children of Alexander CAMERON  and Janet (MS MCDONALD).  In  order of birth:

Kenneth
Roderick
Alexander 1853
Kate
Charlotte
John 1860
Margaret 2 Nov 1862
Jessie

I know that Margaret, my ancestor, was born in Rosskeen, but unsure where the others were born.  The only reference I can find to a marriage for their parents is one in Fodderty (where's that?) 25 May 1849.  would like to know about Janet Mc D's parents, if you should stumble on a marriage.

Many thanks in anticipation  Smiley

hi there,

this looks like some of your ancestors in the 1881 census (not sure if you have this already or not)

also, just to let you know that Fodderty is approx 13 miles west of rosskeen. if you got to www.multimap.co.uk and type in fodderty you should find it easily enough. also if you set the scale to 1:200000 you should get both Fodderty and Rosskeen on the same page.

Lorna

Thank you so much!!

I feel a bit silly for not looking on the LDS site first.  It would be standard practice for England or Wales, but switching countries has boggled me entirely!  Roll Eyes

I believe Roderick was married to Bella? with a son David by 1882 and Alexander became a teacher, ending up in Wiltshire, so he may also have left home.  Since posting I have discovered Scotland's People, is that where you got the census from?

This is a very interesting family, in that the grandfather was a ploughman, but his children went on to be professors and ministers: one helped design the gardens at Niagara!  The power of education!

thanks again, Arranroots  Wink

Did you ever make it in to the LDS to look at your film?  Or did it get sent back already.
