Found an 1885 marriage in Glasgow for a Malcolm McKinnon and Janet (on variants).  I'm going to check that one out, as it matches 15 years married per the US census.

Just checked that marriage and it's not him, though it does match the census.   :-\

The Australian email is on Mull Genealogy for someone who has submitted material which relates to this family.  Some of it is inaccurate.  :P

To recap we have Donald, Flora, Gillean, John, Thomas, Malcolm and Alexander who is still single and home on Mull in 1911, which just leaves us with Neil. 

Neil is on the 1881 census with Flora
He was a witness to John's marriage in 1897

Apart from that he's the invisible man!  :D

Fifer, hate to mention given you have already put down your 1 unit for this search, but given the names, might be good to search with a wildcard such as N*l *as Neil can show as Niel and then M*Kinn*n....
