Hi Catmac,

I searched this thread and don't see any mention of Anne Blue other than yours.  Can you provide some more information on your Great Grandmother?  Does she have roots in Kilmun?

I will need to look up the Family Tree. She was married to Hugh McLean in Campbeltown. My grandmother was the eldest daughter, Euphemia.
I have no idea where Anne came from, but she died and is buried in Glasgow.
Where is Kilmun?

Kilmun is in Argyll.  Here is a Google Maps link to Kilmun.  http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=Kilmun,+Scotland&ie=UTF8&z=9&ll=55.991613,-4.928484&spn=0.67285,2.746582&om=1

Any of her parents mentioned ?

Now that is interesting. We know that my Great-Grandfather ran away from home (in Mull) to 'mid Argyll' as a boy, and moved to Campbeltown later.

Hi all, I´ve just found the DC of a worthy cleric slightly related to me, on Jura. If anyone is interested, there is also the death of an Anne Blue McKechnie age 2 3/4 years in 1876, Jura, daur. of Catherine Blue and Archibald McKechnie, shepherd. Both deceased.

PM me if interested.

Guid hunting,

Hi Thrall,

Do you think that is the same Catherine as the one (b.1860) mentioned on the first page of this topic?

Hi Gerry, I think its pushing it a bit to be born 1860 and have a 23/4 year old daughter die 1876. Good try though!

I would go for Catherine Blue b.21/09/1849 Jura, m. Archibald McEachern 04/06/1863, and there you see how good my eyesight is as I had him as McKechnie in my previous post.........   The registrar did have a dot though above the third or second last letter both times he wrote McK***** , just to cloud the issue; maybe he was hard of hearing..........
