[email]George Cameron would have been my Great Great Grandfather. My Grandfather, William Cameron, was the son of George's daughter Margaret. He was born at the Black Isle Poorhouse in 1913. No father was named of his Birth Certificate. Margaret married Donald Cameron around 1920 and by 1924 they had 2 children. I'm pretty sure these children's names were Donald George, and Eliza. My Grandpa was sent to Quarrier Homes Orphanage in 1924 and left from there in 1930 to go to Canada. He had no further contact with his family so any living relatives most likely wouldn't know he existed.
A month ago I found an old posting on another message board about this family and was able to contact a woman who was a descendant of George's daughter Ann. She had a little more information on George's family in Ullapool and sent me a photo of George and his wife Eliza McLennan. Do you have any more info on this family after 1924 ? I have a transcript of Margaret's Death certificate in 1970 and hope to learn more about the years between 1924 and 1970.
I have an on line Family Tree I'm working on and will send you a link to it if you like. I have scanned copies of the records from the Orphanage on the Family Tree site that explain a little more of why he was sent there.
Hope to hear from You
Vickie
