Islay Reunion 2004
|
Feeling nostalgic today. Just came across this photo from the 2004 Reunion on Islay.
Lots more Reunion photos on Steve Gilchrist's Isle of Islay site: http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~steve/islay/photos/sue/2004a/islay2004a.html I think these are all or mostly Sue Visser's photos. Thank you, Sue.

Hi Diane. Thank you for fun memories. Yes the pics are mine 😊. I've looked at the participant pics through the years. I miss seeing some of those folks on our present list.
Take care and keep well wishes to all. Sue

The reunion I attended in Peterborough in 2005 was so memorable. Met a 4th
cousin.

Enjoyed both Islay and Peterborough gatherings! I also met cousins while in Ontario. (I hope this reply doesn't copy everything. I had trouble with that before.) Carolyn

My mistake. OOOps
At the Peterborough gathering,
Ancestry just told me she was a 5th cousin. Shared common 4th great
grandparents.
Bit of a stretch

Hello to all of you Islay researchers. Yes, the "Return of the Children" was a wonderful gathering back in 2004 - so great to meet the folks we had been corresponding with!
Sorry to have been absent for the last couple of years, but it's nice to see familiar names who are still here, and I look forward to "meeting" newer members and getting caught up. I'm still tracing all Islay Sinclairs, so if any of you have some hiding in the closet, please dust them off and let's compare notes. Best wishes to all of you for successful research in the coming year. Toni

Hey Toni
Welcome back.
Took pictures at the Islay gathering in 2005. Great to meet other Islay
researchers there.
Among whom was my Christine Harenberg who is my 5th cousin through the
common Islay ancestor listed below, our 5th gg Alexander McDOUGALL and Christine
SINCLAIR.
We last met at an OGS annual several years back
Had I told you that my 4th gg was Christina SINCLAIR, b. circa 1760,
m. to John McDOUGALL, also b. circa 1760.
Their daughter was Christina McDOUGALL, b. 1794 in Grastle, (Grastill) the
Oa, Islay, Argyle, Scotland,
m. on 26 Feb 1812 in BOTP -- Kilarrow Islay, Argyle, Scotland, to
John McDOUGALL b. 1783 also in Grastle, (Grastill) the Oa, Islay, Argyle,
Scotland
They had 8 children, one of whom was my gg Mary McDOUGALL who married
Malcolm CURRIE. Guess whom I’m ultimately named for?
