Angus McLeod born about 1833 in Torosay
« on: Sunday 10 March 24 22:01 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to find out if anyone has further info on Angus McLeod christened 30 April 1831 in Torosay.  Parents  Norman MacLeod and Sarah (perhaps Marrion) MacKinnon.

I have him in the 1841 census from Freecen: Roderick 20, Mary 20, Catherine 15, Robert 17, Lachlan 12, Marrion 10, and Angus 8 all McLeods at Ardahoil, Torosay.

There is an 18 year old Angus McLeod in 1851 living in Kilmore and Kilbride.

I have not found him in 1861.

Parents from:  http://www.mullgenealogy.co.uk/cr_deaths.html
McKinnon, Sarah   (c. 1787-1859) farmer's [Norman McLeod] wife she died 12 March 1859 at Ardachaoil, Torosay aged 72. F. Lachlan McKinnon farmer, dec. M. Mary McKinnon, M/S McKinnon dec. Info. Norman McLeod husband, present.
McLeod, Norman   [married to Sarah McKinnon] See McKinnon, Sarah (c.1787-1859), or McLeod, his wife, who died at Ardachaoil, Torosay.
McLeod, Sarah   (c.1787-1859) Farmer's wife, married, died 12 March 1859 at ArdachaoilTorosay, aged 72. F. Lachlan McKinnon farmer. M. Mary McKinnon

I believe this Angus McLeod had a child with Mary McSporran named Archibald McLeod in 1856 Killean and Kilchenzie.

I am trying to sort out the use of Angus McLeod b1823 Lochbroom, ROC
https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=880538.msg7535743,
as it appears unlikely, from the information at hand, that the Angus McLeod who went to Australia with Mary McSporran and son Archibald ever lived in Lochbroom, Killearnan, or Knockbain in ROC.
