Thank you Maureen, would that imply they separated or that he died?
Would it just say widowed if he were dead?

Family History Beginners Board / Census question
« on: Thursday 20 April 17 13:15 BST (UK) »
I have information gathered on an 1851 Scotland census of my ggg grandmother Mary McDonald, but I am trying to interpret exactly what is stated as her occupation. It is recorded as follows:
Occupation: 'farmerly Das wife'
Farmerly as in farming I gather.
The real question I have though is the 'das' part
Could any one shed some light on this please? Thanks.

Inverness / Re: Alexander Cameron: Kilmonivaig

Hello Annie, did you have any luck finding your Alex?
I have the exact same thing with my ancestor Samuel Cameron. He was born around the same time as your Alexander, married around the same time and lived and farmed in kilmonivaig. He is present on his daughters marriage cert in the 1830s and suddenly disappears off the face of the earth. I wonder if they were related?

Mary was a McDonald, as her son Thomas Ross Cameron's death certificate states that as well as other references such as his obituary stating that his mother a Mary McDonald of keppoch.
The USA reference comes from a book titled An Extraordianry Australian by Father Paul Gardener. It has reference to Thomas Ross Cameron's parents Samuel and Mary and their connection with mother Mary of the cross MacKillop. Mary mackillops mother was flora McDonald.
I believe the Mary and Samuel you have found is a different family but fit the time frame.
Thomas Ross had siblings as follows
Mary Hannah Angus and Alexander

Inverness / Brick wall, Cameron/ McDonalds in Lochaber
« on: Thursday 02 March 17 23:39 GMT (UK) »
Hello, i am desperately seeking info on a Samuel Cameron and his wife Mary McDonald (keppoch. great aunt of Mary MacKillop)
They are the parents of Thomas Ross Cameron born 1821 (my gg grandfather) Thomas married Annie mcdonell in fort Augustus and emigrated to New Zealand via Australia in the 1850's with their son Archibald (my g grandfather) and a few brothers aboard the ship the 'sea'.
Samuel and his wife Mary I believe farmed in the Dochnassie Lochaber area in the 1830s at Adarchy and apparently were married in the USA.
Any information regarding Samuel and Mary would be greatly appreciated as I have hit a rather big brick wall. Thanks!!
