Have you checked Scotlands People, there are possibilities in Sutherland for John. The one that looks possible is the only son of NEIL MC KENZIE & JANET SUTHERLAND30/11/1791 Kildonan.

Hi, are you still looking for info on John McKenzie and Henny McKay, married in Farr? Investigating my husband’s roots and they lead to them via their son, John McKenzie (maybe born Donald John, Farr, 1823). He married and settled in Edinburgh. Also have DNA connections to this McKay link, and believe they originate at Achnabourin/Farr.
