Argyllshire / Re: Deserted Settlements of Glassary Parish

Hi Amber, thanks for your response. I am a descendant of John and Mary's son Donald Currie (b. Dec 23, 1799), who emigrated to Ontario, CA, and Donald's son Neil Man Currie who then moved to the Detroit area, where I grew up.

I don't have much information about John and Mary, and I don't have any information about their parents. I visited Lochgilphead and Kilmichael Glassary -- around where they were married -- in April of 2012, but didn't find anything other than the parish located there.

If you have any information, please share it and I will be certain to do the same.

Thanks again!
Scott

Hi, I am traveling to Scotland in April and am trying to track down any record of the Curries in Glassary Parish. The earliest record I have is of John Currie marrying Mary McAlpine in Glassary on 24 Dec 1791. When they were married, John lived on Balliemore Farm and Mary lived on Lagg Farm.

Any information you would be able to pass along about John or Mary or these farms would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,

Scott

Hi, I'm traveling to Scotland in April and am trying to track down any record of my Currie ancestors in or near Glassary Parish. The earliest record I have is of John Currie being married to Mary McAlpine in Glassary on 24 December 1791. I have been told that when they were married, Mary lived on Lagg Farm near Kilmartin Valley and John lived Balliemore Farm.

I would greatly appreciate any information you may be able to pass along about these farms or John and Mary. Thanks,

Scott
