George McKay and Janet Pope married 28 Jan 1831 have a son John listed in the 1841 census as a ten year old. I cannot find this birth but have found the births of their other children born before and after this census. Can anyone shed any light on this John McKay born about 1830/31 or indeed on any members of the family?

Maggie,
I have just noticed that your message still has the email address. Thought you would like to know.
I'm not sure why, if you thought you had changed it!! Have another go.

Kia ora Andy
My apologies for taking so long to get back in here to find the info regarding Merran MACLEOD, wife of Neil DINGWALL of Durness.
I just hope you are still looking in at this thread. You posted the message December 2006

Hello Ellen
I answered this email last year, and haven't heard back from you, so hoping to jog your memory. I am related through John and Flora's daughter Christina. Would love to swap info.
Kind regards
Carol
Hello Carol and Ian (I think we have already been in touch Ian)
John M(a)cKay and Flora Forbes Sutherland are my husband's 3 x great grandparents. He is descended from their daughter Isabella 1821-1917, who married Kenneth Sutherland at Durness in Jan 1846.
I too have a deal of info on the family which I am happy to share. Will have to sort it all out though as have had a break from active researching in recent months while establishing my business (not genealogy related!). Pleased to have the time again to get back to the family.
Regards
Ellen.

Hi Andy,
I have seen your offer to look up records for Durness and wondered if you could look some up for me? My husband's ancestors came from Durness.
We would appreciate any info about William Mackay and his daughter Mary b. about 1762, Clashneash, Durness who married Donald Ross in Durness. Their daughter was Ann Ross chr. 10.8.1787 Durness and married Donald Whyte 5.2.1808 Durness. If you can tell me anything at all about Mary, her father William and even who her mother was, it would be great.
On the marriage record for Durness, Mary Mackay's name on the marriage entry reads "Mary Mackay alias Nin uillam Macnish / macemish". (or similar)
Many thanks,
Kate Whyte.
Hi Andy,
This is a message I posted last July 2007 when I found your offer to look up information on the Durness Register. I wonder if you could find any info for me now? Anything about this family would be appreciated.
Hopefully - KateW

Nice to see you back Andy.
I am still at a dead end with my Gunns and have abandoned them in the meantime.
Will get back to them sometime.
