My mum is Morag. I am Fiona. My Grandpa was Alfred. I have since found that Grigor was actually Gregor and it was a typo too! So curious about the name Isaac as it seems such a Hebrew name for Inverness area although I've searched am baile and noted quite a few Isaacs during that period so perhaps it was just a fashionable name at the time!

Hi there, lovely to hear from you! Your Dad isn't by chance called John is he as I may know of the link in our family through my mum. I've done a bit more research on this Lop/Lap puzzle over time however I'm not sure how accurate my findings are. I have came across a Maria Loppes from Lisbon Portugal through Portugal records. I know it's a bit of a leap however I've came across a lot of typos in the census over time with misspelling of names etc.

Hi there, I have been searching for last couple of years to find Mary Lap/McLeod and further back.  She would of been my great great great grandmother. I have tried to look through passenger lists etc to no avail as I see she came here from Portugal. I wondered if Mary had met her husband during Napoleonic war or similar and settled here following. I notice your post is from over a year ago but if you have managed to get any further I would be grateful if you could get in touch through this site.
Thanks.
