Hi, researching Coll and Tiree ancestors and noticed this post. My McFarlane side is Malcolm McPhaden and Flora McFarlane. Floras parents Donald McFarlane (b 1767)and Anabella MacLean (1760ish?). Donalds parents were Duncan McFarlane (b 1739) and Katharine McLean (1745 - 1784). Duncans parents are John McFarlane (b1710) and Marion McArthur (1716). Some dates are approximate and I just started on this line so any Coll or Tyree help would be appreciated. Malcolm (1794 - 1869) was a shoemaker in Salem on Tyree where he was born and he died in Caolis, and Flora 1785 - 1862) was born on Tyree and died in Coll. Their children were Angus McFadyen (m. Ann McTavish), Mary, Lachlan, Annabella, Flora, all born between 1815 and 1831. Angus's daughter Isabella McFadyen (b. 1842)was my gg grandmother and married William Scott. Looking for Anabella (1760's) MacLeans parents and any other leads. The family finally ended up in Paisley via Kilbirnie in Renfrewshire, Scotland. Fingers crossed. Fascinated
