and

Islay plaque" M. Diane Rogers #188 Just wondering if anyone else has a little Islay plaque like this one. At its widest, about 3 1/2 inches; 4 1/2 inches long. Painted on thin laminated? wood. No initials or signature. On the back is a hook and a tag - in my grandmother's hand - "Islay Island". Found with old photos...after my grandmother was gone. I know neither she nor my mum ever went to Islay in Scotland - and Mum not to Islay in Ontario, or even Alberta. However, one of my great aunts did work in the hospital in Islay, Alberta for a while. It just occurred to me - perhaps it had been hers? Some kind of souvenir? Although she wasn't from the Islay Scotland side of the family. (Wish I could ask!) Diane

Larrachaluil, the Oa (spelling?) isabel vaughan #187 Interested in "Larrachaluil" (spelling uncertain). Located in the Oa, midway between Lurabus and Ballichatrigan. Found it mapped in Bartholemew's 1895 Atlas. Wonder whether anyone may know of this location, and whether anything remains of tenant dwellings or other. If anyone knows of or has visited this location, would love to hear from you! Isabel

Re: Flora Keith Merle Duncan #174 Thank you, Charles. I have been away from home with limited computer access so I apologize for the late reply. This is very helpful.

Roll call Lamont and Currie Anne Goeden #173 Hello Listers My Islay names are Coll ( Colin) Lamont born about 1786 (at Portnellen, Kilmeny) in Islay. His parents were Donald Lamont and Janet McKechnie/McEachern. Coll Lamont was a dancing master and was living at Portnellan farm, Kilmeny on 1841 census. He was living at Loagin Farm, Kilmeny on the 1851 census. Coll Lamont's siblings that I know of were Archibald (married to Margaret Buie about 1811) , John (1769-1847) Godfrey ( 1773-1860), Gilbert ( 1788-1853, married to Janet Campbell 1830)) and Mary ( born c. 1780 married to a Murdoch Currie around 1800) Coll Lamont emigrated to Canada in 1851 to the Cheltenham district of Peel County, Ontario. In 1854 he moved to Saugeen township, Bruce County. He died in 1861 and is buried in Port Elgin Ontario. Coll Lamont's wife was Mary Currie. Mary Currie was born about 1794 possibly on Baluve Farm in Kilmeny. Mary died in 1877 ( three weeks after her brother) and is buried in Port Elgin. Children of Coll Lamont and Mary Currie ( all born in Kilmeny) were Mary 1826, Gilbert 1829, Donald 1833 ( my gg grandfather), Janet 1834 and Flora 1840. No baptisms have been found. Mary Currie had a brother Donald Currie ( 1806-1877). He emigrated to the Cheltenham area of Peel County in the early 1830s. ( guess) He married Sarah ( Marion ) Campbell daughter of John Campbell and Catharine Sinclair on 25 Feb 1836 in Chinguacousy Township, Peel County, Ontario. Children of Donald Currie and Sarah Campbell were Flora 1836, John 1838, Dugald 1839, Catharine 1841,Alexander 1843, George 1844, Janet 1846, Donald 1848, Colin 1850, Lachlan 1852, Neil 1854 and Mary Anne 1856 . Donald Currie and family moved to Saugeen Township in 1854. He died in 1877 and is buried in Port Elgin. I don't know who are the parents of Mary and Donald Currie. I also don't know who their other siblings were. One possible sibling or cousin of Mary and Donald Currie is Alexander Currie born c. 1798 who married Mary Bowie. He emigrated to Canada in 1851 ( same year as Mary Currie) and settled in Egremont Township. Some of my cousins have dna matches to the descendants of this Alexander Currie. Since I have no church records for my ancestors, I am very lucky that they show up on the 1841 and 1851 census. I have an obit for my ggg grandmother Mary Currie ( wife of Coll Lamont) and her brother Donald. Mary had been baptized in the Saugeen River in 1869 by a Baptist minister. Anne Goeden

Re: [Lanark] Re: PAF software Anne Burgess <anne.genlists@...> #171 No, PAF5 will not run on Win10. I solved this problem by creating a Virtual Windows XP computer in the Win10 computer.

Islay to Victoria Co., Ontario - #CALDER, #CARMICHAEL, #gilchrist M. Diane Rogers #169 James Gilchrist and Ann Calder, both born Islay, are my 3rd great grandparents. I am descended from their daughter Margaret and Donald Carmichael. Margaret was born on Islay. I always heard that Donald Carmichael was too. But definite records have eluded me so far. I won't like him any less if he was born elsewhere. I'd just like to know! Someday. Photo believed to be Margaret Gilchrist and Donald Carmichael, based on her appearance in similar images with my quite distinctive looking great grandmother, Janet, Margaret and Donald's daughter. Also very interested in any family of Margaret's first child, Diana Gilchrist, one of my very favourite relatives. You can guess why. Her father was John Gilchrist, also from Islay. Here is a link to a photograph of Diana Gilchrist and her husband Alexander McNabb(born on Islay in 1836) on my blog: https://canadagenealogy.blogspot.com/2008/09/1st-edition-of-canadian-genealogy.html I have some new DNA leads, so I have started to pick up this Islay research again. And my computer and binders know more than I have here. Hoping this is readable!
