Hi Martha Mildred

I don't have a connection to this family, but I do have a book of monumental inscriptions for Wester Ross. Not sure if you've seen this already - according to this book, Margaret Cameron (wife of Angus Lamont) and Mary Lamont are buried in Badenscallie Burial Ground near Achiltibuie.

The first gravestone is for Margaret Cameron (it says her husband Angus Lamont is a teacher at Altandow) who died on the 30th August 1840.

The second stone is for Mary Lamont (her husband is given as Hugh Macfarlane of Strathan, Assynt) who died 24th November 1865 aged 34 and her children Angus Lamont and Mary Angus Lamont who died in infancy.

Hope this is of some help!

Hello Lodger

I'm new to this forum and am probably doing something wrong. However, perhaps you can bear with me.

I notice that you are interested in the Paterson surname. I am Alexander (Sandy) Paterson, with roots in Kirkfieldbank, and prior to that, I believe, in Argyllshire.

I am particularly interested in the McPhadrick Lamonts of Coustoun, some of whom used Patrick/Paterson as an alias following the massacre of Lamonts in Dunoon in 1646. Are you able to help?

Yours,

Sandy
