Hi,
I was wondering if there is anyone out there who specializes in the history of Drumnadrochit/Urquhart/Loch Ness area?
From the 1881 census for Drumnadrochit I have the McIntosh family:-
John McIntosh was a Flesher (local butcher?)
One of his sons is Alexander McIntosh and is the Postmaster.
John was my GG-grandfather and Alexander was my G-granduncle.
John McIntosh's father Alexander was from Lower Bunloit which is south-west of Urquhart Castle.
I'd be interested in information on the Post office in the 1880s and anything else related to Drumnadrochit around that time.
thanks for looking
Bob
