Looking for the birth of Alexander McLachlan born on Kilchoman Islay in 1788 I think . Ive have heard his parents were Peter and Mary but can see no sign of his birth I gather he had brothers or half brothers , Hugh , Lachlan ,Duncan born after him ,and perhaps more . He left Islay with his son Patrick and settled in Northern Ireland where he remarried a Rose Irwin and they had a large family. I think he may have left the island under a cloud , but it is hard to find out much information. I am descended from Alexanders family in Bushmills Co antrim.
