Hi Al,
Thank you for the additional information on John.

Your ancestor John (1821) was another child of John McKenzie (1787-1873) & Catherine McCallum (1799) who were married 22 Dec 1816 at Kenmore. John was born about 1787 at Kenmore and died 15 Jan 1873 at Kenmore and Catherine was born about 1799 at Fortingal, death date unknown.

Do you know who Catherine McCallum's parents were? I have an idea but am not sure.

I have John's (1787-1873) parents as John McKenzie born 14 Jul 1754 at Kenmore and Anne McEwen born at Killin. John & Anne were married 23 Nov 1782 at Killin. You have John (husband of Anne) being born in 1767 making him 15 years old when they were married in 1782. I am not sure of Anne's parents or birth date since I have five possibilities.

I have John's (1754) parents as Donald McKenzie & Janet McGregor whereas you have Duncan McKenzie & Margaret Crerar. It appears more research is needed here.

Hi Abi,
I am doing some research on my wife's ancestors and noticed that you are related to the same McCallum's. John McKenzie and Catherine McCallum were married 22 Dec 1816 in Kenmore. I have six of their children from the census records; Catherine 1824, Margaret 1826, Jean 1828, Jane 1832, Duncan 1834 and Christian 1840. My wife's ancestor is Margaret 1826. I did not have Anne listed since she did not show up on any of the census's with her family. I thought there were other children since the parents were married in 1816 and my first child was born in 1824. How did you make the connection with Anne to her parents? Marriage certificate maybe? Do you know if there are any more children in this family?
