Hi Greg,
My Curries were from South Uist, Inverness-shire, Scotland.
I'm unsure of any descendants at this point for this era.
My 3 x g g/father Donald Currie b c 1800 died pre 1855 (no death cert) was married to Marion Steele who died 1862 on the Island of Eriskay, just off South Uist (now accessible by a causeway).
They were moved to Eriskay with the clearances of South Uist Crofts in the 1800's.
1 of his daughters Margaret c1829 - 1885 was my 2 x g g/mother married to Ewen Cumming c 1824 - 1869 (both died Eriskay) another daughter Janet married a Donald MacPhee & emigrated to Ontario, Canada.
2 sons Donald & John who I haven't researched yet.
I have Donald married to Catherine MacKinnon 1854 South Uist although I haven't researched that line any further yet.
