Argyllshire / Re: Walker-Tarbert, McArthur & Campbell-Lochgoilhead
« on: Wednesday 11 February 15 22:12 GMT (UK)  »
Hi all,
Yes when I started researching my great grandmother Janet McArthur I thought her parents were Neil McArthur & Mary Campbell. Dad had said we were the Campbell clan and I was sure I had the right lady. But with further research & info/help from another Walker cousin realized I had the wrong Janet McArthur, my Janet was born in Skipness not Lochgilhead.

Thanks to Anne & Janet I have been able to put together a lot more of the family, which includes all the McVannel people that I knew were related but could not find out how. I have the book "the history of the McVannel clan" the family of Duncan McVannel & Jean McArthur. I believe Duncan 1774-1837-is a brother to my gr gr grandmother Margaret (Peggy) McVannel 1776-1864.
