Well done, i know it ends up costing a heap.
but it is all worth it.
i tell you what,  Because your eye is in... Cool
Can you search, for him and tell me which it is? and then I'll buy both John and his wife.
Lets hope, he died after 1855.
But I will do it later.

here is the census info....

1851 - they are not at melvaig. - they could be at aultbea, but i didnt have time to look. (only had 1/2hr)

1861 - lot 7, melvaig, south gairloch, roc
kenneth mckaskell    head     mar     49         crofter      roc gairloch
mary              "           wife     mar     44         " wife        roc     "
william           "            son     unm     20         fisher         "       "
margaret       "            dau       "        16        servant       "       "
hannah         "               "         "        14        scholar        "       "

1871 & 1881 posted earlier

1891 - croft no. 7, melvaig, south gairloch, roc
kenneth macaskill head   mar    81   crofter (working on own account)  roc  gairloch G
Mary           "          wife    mar    78      "  wife                                roc gairloch    G
Johan         "          dau     unm   44    general domestic servant    roc  gairloch   G
Mary   mackenzie  g.dau   unm   12    scholar                                 roc  gairloch   G


question for anybody willing?? are hannah (14 in 1861 & 20 in 1871) and Johan (30 in 1881 & 44 in 1891) the same person?  - johannah maybe? or am i just completely stupid??  Embarrassed
also kenneth's death is registered by his daughter who appears to be "Joan"??


also the macgregors were at: melangaum(sp?), inverasdale in 1861. (didnt have time to check the other censuses for them.

donald macgregor  head    48  crofter & fisherman   roc  gairloch
mary          "            wife     55          " wife                 "         "
john           "            son      24      fisherman              "         "
christian     "            dau     21         " dau                   "         "
??ina          "              "       19         "    "                     "         "
harriot        "              "       17       crofter dau             "         "
duncan       "            son     14         scholar                 "         "
murdo        "              "        12             "                      "         "
daughter (above) name could have been alexanderina maybe? - it was difficult to read and very faded....

just shutting down computer when i thought of something - grand daughter mary mackenzie would have been born before 1881 census! so i got my discs out again:



   Dwelling:   Melvaig
   Census Place:   Gairloch, Ross & Cromarty, Scotland
   Source:   FHL Film 0203409     GRO Ref    Volume 066-2    EnumDist 10    Page 7
   Marr   Age   Sex   Birthplace
Duncan MACKENZIE   M   43    M   Gairloch, Ross and Cromarty, Scotland
   Rel:   Head
   Occ:   Crofter (2Ac)
Maggy MACKENZIE   M   35    F   Gairloch, Ross and Cromarty, Scotland
   Rel:   Wife
Kate MACKENZIE       3    F   Gairloch, Ross and Cromarty, Scotland
   Rel:   Daur
Mary MACKENZIE       2    F   Gairloch, Ross and Cromarty, Scotland
   Rel:   Daur


then compared this with SP marriages (not viewed though)
SP have one match for gairloch in 1876 for duncan mackenzie and margaret maccaskill!

- i know it doesnt help with the parents, but it is another branch for my tree and thought i'd let you all know, because you have been great at helping me!!  Grin

wish i'd thought of looking at the neighbours on the 1891 census while i was there... Cry never mind, its a good excuse to go back again one day next week hopefully.

I was wondering, in the 1871c
Kenneth and family say they were born in.........
ROC aultbea .........
Is this part of Gairloch?

Just making sure this is the same family....

I have done myself up a tree of your family so I can keep track...

At a quick look it looks like Hannah and Johan are possibly the same person.

small update...

btw aultbea is in gairloch (as far as i know  Embarrassed )

in a previous posting, i had said one of kenneth's daughters may have been alexanderina, but the census was very faded....

i havent confirmed this yet but it looks like she was and married another mackenzie (looking at the names of the children anyway.........)

will need to save up for SP again - lol
