Sutherland / Brick wall-Donald Sutherland-Sutherland
« on: Tuesday 07 July 09 12:07 BST (UK)  »
I have an ancestor Margaret Sutherland who married a John McDonald in Edinburgh in 1805.The marriage registration says her father, Donald Sutherland was a farmer ,Sutherland.John was in the Forfarshire Militia residing in Inveresk Barracks at the time of the marriage.The only birth for Margaret that fits from the Familysearch site is one born in Golspie 29-2-1780,father Donald-no mother's name.I doubt that John McDonald  could be from Sutherland so am guessing he met Margaret in Edinburgh.Unfortunately by the time John and Margaret's daughter Margaret McDonald,  got married in Edinburgh in 1827,John Mcdonald was dead-no mention of the mother of course on that marriage reg.Does anyone have any information on a Donald Sutherland ,farmer in Sutherland around 1780-1805?
       Many thanks,          Oyinda
