Hi Joan, Irene Craig (nee Macmillan)here!
RS Macmillan was my paternal g grandfather, John Harley Macmillan grandfather and my father was George Harley Macmillan. I presume RS and Agnes had other children otherwise we wouldn’t be chatting. I had a DNA test and was told I had a 4th cousin in Canada.
I am just a beginner so don’t really have anything to add. No idea when Robt or Agnes died and nothing on James. Irish records are practically non-existent.
Intriguing to note the change in the name from McMillan to Macmillan (although they still mean son of). I wonder if this is an aspirational move away from the Irish preference. Cheers, Irene
