In Scotland women retain their maiden name throughout their life so a woman will marry using her maiden name every time she marries and will be registered by all names married and maiden on death makes them easier to find

This is great.  I googled 'Donald of Camuslaimh Fletcher', and came up with this - which is pretty fascinating.

Are you related to all these people?

ALSO THIS.

The banns are read in the parish where the person is living at the time so if they are living in different parishes then the banns are recorded in both parishes so according to this one of them was living in Kilmodan and the other was living in Inverchaolian at the time

Hi Bronwen,
No, sorry, I am not related to the Fletchers in Scotland, I am originally from Yorkshire. My wife who is from Scotland and I are both related to the earlier Royal families of both England and Scotland.
I have found some more information for you regarding the Brock family, earlier spellings for this name was Brocky or Brockie before becoming Brock. I will put up what I have found in my next post.

Regards
Mike
