McDonalds of Arcan, Muir of Ord

[moodyblues]

Am trying to find records of the McDonald family of Arcan, Muir of Ord, Urray parrish, Ross Shire( now Ross and Cromarty. Have found them on 1841 census, but no records after this. There was a Donald, Helen(Ellen)( nee Gordon), Mary, Alexander. Next door were the Gordons. They had other children, a John and possibly a Donald and Malcolm. John and a brother immigrated to New Zeland and Australia in 1862.

Hello,

Donald McDonald married a Elin(Hellen, Ellen) Grant. (Not Gordon) They had 4 children.
Mary 1812 died in poorhouse simple minded never married.
Isobel 1816 no record of her after birth record on IGI
Alexander 1818 married Ann Matheson immigrated to Victoria Australia
John 1822 immigrated to New Zealand. Married Catherine McKay
.Regards
Ann
