This Thomas MacGillivray lived at "Alnaha" a farmhouse  near Cawdor,he was married to Margaret Noble and they had nine children  living.
I wish to know all their names, as well as the ones I do know i.e.my Grandmother Margaret, Aunts Anne and Mary,Isabella (Bella?)
More importantly I would like to know of any brothers and sisters Thomas Macgillivray may have had and who his parents were and any other information.
Thank you so much for your interest
Fortune

You need to give us a lot more information so we know exactly which family you are researching and don't go down the wrong track

Where and when was Thomas born - although he may have lived in Cawdor - was he actually born there or elsewhere

When and where was Margaret born?

Is this who you are researching - this is the type of info should be included in any lookup request??

THOMAS MCGILLIVRAY   Spouse:  MARGARET NOBLE 
Marriage:  17 FEB 1859   Daviot And Dunlichity Inverness,

You will note they married in Inverness

The IGI shows a son Alexander b 25 NOV 1868 Moy And Dalarossie, Inverness - you can view the entry at www.familysesarch.org

The same website also has Ann b 04 DEC 1873 Cawdor and Margaret 06 FEB 1871 Cawdor

My grandmother,  Jessie McGillivray, was the elder sister of your grandmother,  Margaret McGillivray who married John Wilson.   I know a lot about the McGillivrays if you are still interested.

Fortune hasn't been online since February so has probably not seen your post. You need 3 posts to use PM (Personal Message) system but I'll send a PM directing to this thread for you. Best wishes, aghadowey (Moderator)

P.S. I've just sent PM but if they've changed their address and not updated their Rootschat profile details they may not get my message.

Fortune still hasn't been online (since Feb.2011) so probably hasn't seen the latest posts on this thread.
