« on: Monday 10 June 24 10:45 BST (UK)  »
I have James Waldie in my family. According to SP, he was born 1662 to John Waldie and Margaret Hardie.
James married Margaret Palmer and they had a son Nicol Waldie, born 1679
Nicol married Eupham Gillespie, they had a daughter Ann Waldie, born 1711.
Ann Waldie married James Dods.
They had a son Nicol Dods, born 1736
Nicol Dods married Isabella Wilson, and their son James Dodds was born 1767.
James Dodds married Margaret Johnstone. Their son James Dodds was born 1805.
James married Helen Hyslop, and they had several children in Coldstream and a son, William, possibly born in Newcastle. Helen died in Tynemouth in 1874.

I think it meansJohn Macdonald  originally went by the surname Macqueen.
Macqueens were tenants of, and followers of Clan Donald/Macdonald

From John McDonald and Mary Chisholm, my ancestor is their twin daughter, Kathrine, who married Ewan Matheson, 10th January, 1817, Kirkhill, Inverness. I was contacted by Neil McDonald, and we have compared notes, but there was a message this evening that he was no longer taking messages.
John and Mary are my 3rd Great grandparents.

Hello.

It is incorrect that I’m no longer accepting messages.

David Macdonald thereafter disappears from records, and I can find no trace of him.

Was he born in Inverness?

Inverness / James Grant, Writer in Inverness 1808

Does anyone on here have any knowledge of a James Grant, shown as a writer, Inverness, 1808?

The reason I ask is my 3x grand uncle, David Macdonald at the age of 12 years entered a period of 5 years indentured servitude with him in that year.
