The marriage of Peter and Margaret was recorded as Peter McEllar in Dec.1797, Kilmun Dunoon and they were of Coul Glenfinnert.
Duncan and Agnes McKeol marriage is at Lochgoilhead 19th july 1857.
Margaret death registration gives her parents as Duncan Campbell and Nancy McNaughton.
Margaret's brother James death registration gives his parents Duncan Campbell and Nancy Naughton.
My notes on this marriage were as follows: The McKoel name appears to have dissappeared from the Lochgoilhead records about the late 1770's.
McKoel is a Sept name of the MacNaughton clan so it is likely that subsequent family members reverted to the clan name or variants of it.
Then for Margaret to be buried at Lochgoilhead confirms to me that this is where she had been born .
Duncan Campbells family was also large with 10 children.
Margaret was the 10th 29th Oct 1775. Her brother James was the 9th born 1773
There is no doubt that this was Margaret McKellars family.
These dates are from the Lochgoilhead records.
