Hi
My gtx 5 grandparents were Archibald McKellar and Jean McFarlane. They married on 8/2/1782 Strathlachlan , Argyll. A couple of generations later and the family were well established in Paisley.
I'd love to find their baptisms so I can get at least a generation back. It's a common name in Argyll which is what's proving difficult and they're not on any census nor can I find death records for them as pre 1855 I think when they died.
They did not stay in Argyll tho as the last child I have found for them was born in Renton (Daniel)(Dunbartonshire) tho he eventually crossed the Clyde as my gt x4 Duncan did.
I know Argyll mainly as a tourist but not this area. I have checked SP(several times over a lot of years) but finding nothing that helps me there as could be any one of many
Many Thanks
Ann
