Inverness / Alexander and Clementina McDOUGALL
« on: Saturday 10 February 18 14:33 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,
 Alexander and Clementina  McDougall had a son Daniel McDougall also known as Donald,  b. 1822 Inverness.   Daniel married   Charlotte McLean in Bathurst, Eastern Cape South Africa   and died  10 March 1843  Grant's Valley, Kenton-on-Sea, Eastern Cape, South Africa.

To help a friend  keen to know more about her Scottish rooots I would appreciate any information about  Alexander and Clementina McDougall as we have no other information about them.

There may also be a Ballachullish connection  as a family member corresponded with someone in that area ca 1020s.

Thank you

Hi
Is there anyone who could check the burial registers  for Weare cemetery at Taunton Record Office please.?
Isabel Jane NICKELS died at Stone Allerton  5th August 1927 aged 59  and I am told by a person living there that she is most likely buried at Weare.  She would have belonged to the Church of England.
Many thanks
