1825 marriage registration
« on: Sunday 13 March 22 21:27 GMT (UK) »
Really struggling with the place name (somewhere near Kildonan, Sutherland, Scotland) and the name of the McKay woman in this - Jean? Also the "Elleg", could this be "illeg."? What is it trying to say? Argh!

Any help much appreciated!

It is Jean and the last word will be a place-name.

As the couple come from different parishes, you should look at the entry in each. Maybe the other one will be clearer.

George Grant and Jane MacKay - Halkirk 25-3-1825
George Grant and Jean McKay - Kildonan 25-3-1825
