John McKinnon
Gary My ancestor Lachlan McKinnon (1769-1824) a tenant on Kynagarry Farm married Isabella MacMillan (1759?-1861) in the daughter of Archibald MacMillan Of Tockmal, Oa in the Parish of Kildalton. If you would like to see it I’d be happy to send you all that I know of both of them and a few photos of the remains of Tockmal taken in 2010. I also have a photo of Lachlan’s gravestone in the grounds of the old Kilmeny church. So I don’t push the size limit for images on this site I’m happy to send the information directly to your private email address. My address is john.mckinnon@... Cheers John McKinnon

Hi, everyone.
There are now 177 of us here. Would you like to start a roll call? Just the Islay people's names and places you are interested in.
I am thinking we can also build up a database for the people we are researching.
We can post images too - however - there is an overall size limit for images on free lists here. So be cautious and resize them, please. I would love to see photos of those we know came from Islay, if we have them.

Hi,
I am researching Duncan Fletcher (appears as James Duncan Fletcher on his marriage record) born c 1831 Islay. He may be associated with the Fletchers in Octomore.
He married Mary Gillies (GIllis) in Ontario in 1856. She was born 1834 on Islay and believe she is the daughter of Charles Gillies and Margaret MacArthur.

Re: McFadyens in Lornesville, Ontario
Alasdair Mcdougall
Charles, I was born in Toronto in 07/01/1932, father Donald, born in Port Ellen 1892. I remember two trips North to Lornesville to visit Dad's two relations Sarah and her batchelor brother who's name escapes me. One visit was memorable as Dad ran over a skunk!!! I remember playing with the water pump and a big pumpkin. After we returned to Glasgow at the end of 1936, Sarah sent me comic sections of Canadian papers which I enjoyed.
I wish to find out where they are connected to my family tree
Regards,
Alasdair

Re: Robert Donald Keith 1924-2010
J LOCHRIDGE
Thank you so much Sue. I corresponded with Robert for a short timebefore he went into the nursing home. He was steeped in Keith family history. So many of them made the journey to Canada......I suspect that my 2X great grandmother just could not face making the journey and most of her family remained with her here in Scotland. I am so pleased to get the attachments from you. Cheers Johan

Thank you, Sue. I met Robert when he visited Minnesota, trying to make a connection with me and my brother. Neither one of us knew anything about our heritage at that time.

So, better details.
I’m Dixie Cutler and live in Surrey, BC. I have been researching since 1998 and discovered — among other things — that I do have Islay ancestry although there is NO truth to the tale that my grandfather’s mother-in-law once owned Islay! Here is what is true: Colin McCaig, my GG grandfather, born, illegitimate, Bowmore 18 Aug 1831, married 15 Jul 1859 in Pollockshaws, Renfrew, died there 21 Jan 1867 Lachlan McCaig, his father, born Bowmore, 2 Aug 1809, died Colonsay 28 Sep 1889. Colin's mother was Catherine McArthur “native of Kildalton” died before 1859. Lachlan’s parents were Alexander McCaig (McCaog, McCowaig) born 1761, died 8 Aug, 1843, kill arrow and Florence/Flora McNeil born 1776, died 1836 Killarrow. Parents of Alexander could be John McCaog & Janet McDougall. Parents for Flora could be Duncan McNeil and Ann McLennan. I’m enjoying the GedMatch info but — so far — I ( A650732) am related nobody! I have public tree on ancestry: Bower Family Tree Dixie Bower Cutler
