Ross & Cromarty / Re: Murdo MacLeod & Effie Macgregor - Isle of Lewis

Yes, this is my family.  John MacLeod, Murdo's elder brother, was my grandfather.  He married when he was in his 40s as he assumed responsibility for his mother and his siblings - their father, also Murdo, died some three months before Murdo's birth.  I would know something of the MacLeod family history.

Interestingly I contacted a Mr Macgregor from Tolsta Chaolais I think in December (or very early January)  looking for information on any descendents of Murdo and Effie's but drew a blank. This was, of course, shortly after you began making enquiries.

If your contact would like to get in touch I would also be very interested in knowing something of Murdo and Effie's family.

Hi

Just came across this - hope you're still checking the site. 

I may be able to help with this quest.  A Murdo MacLeod, born c 1881, from Cromore, Isle of Lewis, son of Murdo MacLeod (deceased) and Annabella (nee Smith) married an Effie Macgreggor from Tolsta Chaolais, Isle of Lewis. They lived in Knightswood, Glasgow and had six children.

Murdo MacLeod was my grandfather's brother and I have information on the other strands of the family.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
