Hi there,
Wondering if there are any Death records for around 1844 in the parish registers. I understand the Free Church had just started. Did they have any?
I am looking for the death of Donald MacKay (Maceanmacdholiuileamoig) born to John and ? in 1761. Married to Isobel MacKay in 1793 in StrathMelness and then in 1801To Sybella Thomson. I have him in the 1841 Census aged 80 Army P, but he is gone by 1851.
I was given about 1844 by a distant relation Donald here in NZ about 2005. I have lost touch with him which is a pity. Was there any local papers that may have mentioned him? Any other thoughts?
Cheers and Thanks
