Am researching the Jack family.from Avoch Ross and Cromarty.I have Donald Jack h 24 march 1799 in Avoch Ross and Cromarty d 1851 in Avoch.His wife was Flora Jack b 25 Dec 1799 in Which d 27 March 1877 in Avoch. They married in Avoch on the 31 st of Oct 1821. They had a son Lewis b 1844 d 28 Dec 1908. Have found a Donald and Flora but they hAve a son Lewis b in 1844 so I don't know if this is the same family I know that the Jack family is difficult to researched there were a lot of intermarring but any help would be.gratefully received.Looking for any more children of Donald and Flora

These are the children to Donald & Flora:
1824 David
1826 Catherine
1827 Donald
1836 James, Helen & Margaret (Bapt. same day)
1844 Flora, Simona Geddes M & Lewis (Bapt. same day)
Can't say at present whether these are all from the same couple.
I can only see 1 marriage in Ross & Cromarty for a Donald Jack & Flora & that was in 1821.
Added later:
It looks like they are all from the same family according to the census.
These give the "pelicanised" Baptisms births of 1832 Margaret, 1834 James, 1838 Flora, 1840 Lewis & 1841 Simona.
