Sorry, " Lodger" I just noticed your search criteria for McCallum of Oban.

Bethea Fell daughter of William Fell and Janet Haddow was married to John McCallum  in 1834 at Lesmahagow and moved to Oban. Are you connected to this John and Bethea McCallum if so we have information for you.

Both my mum & Uncle Hebbie (Herbert) are sure the 'Fell' Family came from Cumbria, England. Although some born in Scotland moved to England, with others spreading to Canada & Australia.
