abraham son of roderick and ann mclean
abraham boyd son of james could be for mother, betsey(kinghorn, she married a boyd, sister of james and ann) as my husbands father is john james boyd kinghorn, probably after the boyd,
abraham father of ann, james, and betsey do not know when he died in scotland, that is why he did not come out,

Hi

Also, a couple of Candlish entries, could be connected
Margaret Charlotte Candlish  d. 16 Apr 1889 53y - Daughter of the late Rev R S Candlish D.D. Free St Georges, Edinburgh. Died at Glentarkie Concord

John Candlish d. 20 Nov 1913 66y - Youngest son of above, died at Silvawood, Cowra
Pres Sec 6D part 3 Row 9 Grave 6067, 6069

I think you will find that the Rev R S Candlish D.D. is Robert Smith Candlish one of the leaders of the Free Church in Scotland. If you google his name you will find a wealth of information about him including Bios.

A check of the marriage certificate between John Candlish & Annie McLean should confirm whether his parents are Robert Smith Candlish and Jessie Brock.
