  yaay!! Success!
Thankyou so much, good news at last. Forgive me if Im taking advantage here, but it is possible if I lok through my Scottish ancestry, and if I could note down which certificates Im missing, could you look up for me please, if you need payment Id be all too happy, youre much more skilled at this than I, sorry if that sounds cheeky
You are a true star thanks again!!!

I think it might be better to put your requests on the boards, Matthew. There are local sources outwith the areas that I'm familiar with that others may be able to help with.

If I can help, I will,  but it should be an open question to everyone.

Okie dokie, thanks for the advice, I'll try doing that. You've been great thankyou!!
You mentioned you found Alexi McLeod in the 1841 census in Coigach, where abouts is that?

Ciogach was part of the Lochbroom Parish but was split off ?1855, I think - but can be corrected 

This is a map of the area today. It is in Wester Ross. if you look up Ullapool and go north and west, you're there.

I will check up thses things later but I'm busy right now.

Hello Matthew

Ann Ross, nee Polson died 1865, Edderton, R & C, aged 80. Ref - 63 Page 7.

Gadget WELL DONE on the Lexy death in Glasgow...I still get caught out by the multitude of variants - forgot my Lexy with all the Alexis!

Still no joy with the 1841. I had seen the Alexy entry but no joy with a match for parents. I've also looked at Alex/lexy McLean (just in case!) and nothing either.
I've crossed checked the index entries with those on SP and not missing any entries.

  I think I may have found Alexa's mother's death, to say I'm surprised is putting it mildly!

1882   MCLEAN   ISABELLA    MCLEOD    age 82   EDDERTON/ROSS AND CROMARTY   063/00 0009   

Isabella shows as widow to John McLeod, crofter. Parents Donald McLean, crofter and Ann McLeod. Nephew Alexr. Mclean reported death.

I have seen at least 3 other John & Isabella couples in the censuses, so this entry would need further verification. We are in the land of McLeods!

I noticed the Lexy on one of the censuses Monica, but can I find it now 

I'll have a go tomorrow but am busy. Well done on the Isabella

There is a Lexy age 7 in Applecross, is this the one you saw. Parents' names didn't fit.

I'm going to have a go  later on today at trying to verify the Isabella we have a death for in 1882, tracing her back from her Edderton death. Maybe we can get some clues from the household she lived in the various censuses.


Regards.
