One of my main family lines is from the Acharacle area (MacDonald and MacIsaac). This is the family history site for the area www.moidart.org.uk

I think that John Sinclair and Sarah McMasters did have 11 great grandchildren as I have found 9 so far. I am amazed at how much info and help is coming forward, many thanks to all.
