When did John go to Australia?

Hi Linda

Just thinking    Knockan is right on the border of Ross-shire and Sutherland (not all that far from where I live at the moment) . So if you are searching for John and Jane's baptisms, it would be worth looking in both counties.

Could be, Joe 

I can't find any John, snr and Jane/Jean M(a)ckenzie at all at the moment. I'd like to hear from Linda about the emmigration before I go digging around for deaths, etc.

Jane/Jean must have been in Inverness in 1866 because of the birth.

Alexandrina Catherine McKenzie married Alexander Dimmack their daughter Pacifique Elleanor Dimmack she came to Austrilia in 1903 they the only two that I know so far.
