MacLeods of Stornoway COMPLETED

[J.J.]

Pas is Manitoba...MooseJaw is a Province away...Please modify to remove the image from collections Canada, I gave a link to that passenger list previosly...

Can anyone figure out what it says in column 11 and 12?  May be a clue!!!

This one says farm labourer going to Moose Jaw Sask to be a farm lab. Still I suppose any we find may have left the train in Winnipeg and ventured elsewhere...but it would be a nice package to find one going to work for the HBC co.

That was my only Roderick of right age and right date....I do have lots of George's near correct birth dates if more information comes to light...( reminder:   my rootschat folder Mcleods 2011) Lots of Murdochs as well, but as I said we may have him entering the west coast.

Do a search on the Western Isles Council web site (Comhairle nan Eilean Siar) and you should be able to find out a bit about Graham Avenue and why its called that. Hebridean Connections web site is pretty accurate for names. Alos have you tried the Scottish Emmigration database for passeneger lists. I think you'll find plenty Mackays and Grahams from Garrabost on it. They are mostly related.  I have both these names in my tree as Im from that village. Unfortunately I cant access the information for a week or two but if you post what you have I can try and check it out when I get my files.

Hi I am also trying to trace Mcleods of Sornoway  - Allen and Johanna who moved to Canada and can be traced on the Manitoba... census in 1916  - with sons John, George Donald and Angus - was any of this highlighted in your research - just a long shot in case there is a connection
Thanks

[annypanny]

Sorry, but no.....None of these names came up in my family.  It's worth checking out the hebrean websites mentioned on this link, they may lead to find something, also the Scottish census records too.  Good luck.....

annypanny,

Graham Avenue in Garrabost is so named as almost all houses on the road were occupied by members of the Graham family at one time.
These Graham's are relatives of mine so happy to help if I can.

He must have been in Scotland as Garrabost is on the Isle of Lewis....Perhaps his wife was still there, will look for a marriage on SP....When I googled Garrabost up came an address of Graham Ave. the same name as his wife's family...!!!

Herodotus,

I will dig out all of my MacLeod documents and get back to you in the next few days.....Did any of the names ring any bells with you?
