I am interested in the Robert Gunn/Isobel Elder information. I have received information that the Donald Gunn of Kildonan mentioned in Sage's "Memorabilia Domestica" was "probably" the son of this couple. However, as I look into this it seems unlikely due to time and distance factors. this post seems to confirm that. I would like to contact the poster, Rubygee, to find out a little more.
