MacKay family Stemster Bower
« on: Sunday 29 April 18 17:56 BST (UK) »
I wonder if anyone has any information about this family and what happened to the children

Donald Mackay born 1854 in Hilliclay, Caithness, Scotland

Father: Donald Mackay b: ABT 1834 in Halkirk, Caithness, Scotland
Mother: Isabella Paul b: ABT 1834 in Hilliclay, Caithness, Scotland

Married: 27 APR 1883 in Halkirk, to Christina Sutherland b: 15 JAN 1855 in Latheron, Caithness,

Children
    Catherine A Mackay b: 15 JAN 1884 in Thurso,Caithness,
    Isabella Mackay b: 1886 in Thurso,Caithness,
    Angus Mackay b: 1888 in Thurso,Caithness,     
    James Mackay b: ABT 1890 in Thurso,Caithness,
    Donald Mackay b: 1892 in Thurso,Caithness,
    Robert Mackay b: 1894 in Thurso,Caithness,
    John George Mackay b: 1896 in Thurso,Caithness,
    William Mill Mackay b: 1899 in Thurso,Caithness,

I think some of the family were in Stemster at some point around 1900

Any help with this greatly appreciated

Many thanks

Have you looked on Scotland’s People for marriages/deaths for them?

The 2 older children may have married by the time of the 1911 census so you can use Scotland’s People to look them up on the 1911 to see if they had any children of their own by then

Hi Carole
I forgot about the 1911 census to be honest I had a look for deaths and marriages and only came up with the son Robert who died in Thurso in the 50s ,, Cant see Catherine Donald etc
