Inverness / Heisker, North Uist: MacDonald
« on: Wednesday 18 May 11 21:14 BST (UK)  »
Wondering if I could ask for some guidance on sourcing further information about ARCHIBALD MacDONALD (died on Heisker in 1895 aged 72 years).  I have his death certificate (signed by his son Alexander).  Am unsure as to which of the  Lawson Croft Histories might be helpful?  Many thanks.

Inverness / McDonald: Tigheary: North Uist
« on: Wednesday 23 April 08 15:47 BST (UK)  »
I'm trying to locate any information about John McDonald, born about 1824, listed in  the 1861 Census, along with his family, as residing at Tigheary Inn,  North Uist, his occupation  is given as 'shoemaker and farmer of 6 acres'.
I believe the same John McDonald, along with his family, then appears in the 1871 Census, residing at Rd Public or Highway (?), North Uist, his occupation is given  here as 'crofter'.
Any help in pointing me to any source material would be much appreciated.
Many thanks.
Fiona
