Campbell Family from Eigg
« on: Monday 16 April 12 17:22 BST (UK) »
I am looking for more info about the Campbell family of Eigg, Inverness-shire. They were Roman Catholic, and I believe a large number of Catholic residents of Eigg emigrated to Canada  in 1790 on the British Queen, including our ancestor Lachlan Campbell and his family. I have also been told that Lachlan's parents may have been Angus and Marion Campbell. Looking for more info on this family. A website suggests there wereno parochial records kept on Eigg. Are there any other sources?

Hi Maryvb,

have you tried looking on this great website for lots of Eigg info. Here's the documents page.

There's quite a few Campbells, including some on the  The Eigg Roll of 1764/5 (that name always makes me snigger).

Regards Jo
