She supposedly maried Alpin Grant on 2 July 1776. Her parents supposed to be Alexander Shaw and Jean Munro (married 19 Jul 1748). Any info welcome.

Thanks, Mary

Hi Elizabeth
Yes, I have some info about her husband Alpin, and her father Alexander Shaw, but nothing on her mother, or any siblings. Somewhere I found a marriage between for Alexander to a Jean Munro, 19 Jul 1748 in Glenisla, but that is in Angus, and Alexander seems to have lived his life in Inverness. Info from a book on major Alpin's Ancestors and Descendents (1904) -- no idea how authoritative that is. Have searched Scotlands People and the IGI.
Thanks for all your help
Mary
