Dear McVite, (are we really cousins?)...talk about serendipity.

My pm is (*)

Thank you, I would be seriously chuffed to receive anything of interest that you feel generous enough to share.

I have recently found the maclean.org site but can't find my way around it with any dexterity yet and haven't been able to locate any of my own MacLeans, even with the aid of the optional spelling. This McLean/MacLean spelling has always been a cause for concern, but I see on the birth certs and census records that I have been able to research, that the spelling appears to be almost random. Any ideas in this regard?

I thought I was making real progress, until I found the Maclean Clan web site, (I now feel swamped) and now the task seems awesome and rather daunting. I suspect there are tricks to this new trade and that I shall learn the nifty ones, as I go along.

Greetings from a grey, very cold County Cork.
Kindest regards.

In response to McVitie re Alexander MacLean B 1845

Greetings from County Cork!

Alexander MacLean was my Great Grand Father. His son John b 1877 Houghharry North Uist married Eliza Bostok 1912 in Bulawayo, Rhodesia, (Zimbabwe) and their son Alistair Charles b 1914 was my father.

I am looking for living relatives and information on descendants. Any info on the ancestors/dates etc for John b c1798 d 1855 and Janet MacInnes b? d? and m 1836.

Thank you in anticipation.
