McDougall and Patterson from Isle of Mull

[robm0761]

Hello! I'm new here and wanted to say hello.

I am currently researching my McDougall and Patterson ancestors from the Isle of Mull, Argyll. Some of the McDougalls immigrated to Canada (Finch Township, Ontario) between 1851 and 1861 (they were on the Scotland 1851 census and the Canada 1861 census).

If you are researching either name I'd love to hear from you!

Thanks!

I have McDougal with Duncan b 1805 born in Torosay Mull. His parents were Neil McDougal and Henrietta McPhail. I have not as yet found anything on them -
my Duncan moved to Inverness shire m in Laggan Isabel Kennedy and then other generations moved to Glasgow etc  now MacDougall. My mother was a MacDougall

Latest on my post re Torosay Mull family  is that
Henrietta McPhail was actually EFFY McPhail
and Neil McDougal was Niel McLullich
Same couple just way names recorded.
Most of there children were recorded McLullich - except a couple McDougal. Mcdougal was used on deaths etc.

Hi Joe
Thanks for all - They are the correct family in Laggan. I have a lot on that area but Duncan was born 1805 approx in Torosay  to Neil McDougal and Henrietta McPhail.
I have since found out that spelling  of his parents most likely was Niel McLullich and Effy McPhail. McLullich being McDougal.    In which case my Duncan had siblings Marrion Cathrine Archibald John Anne John Angus Neil Alexander born Torosay between 1799 and 1823. C115504 IGI.
The 1851 entry in Torosay you sent shows a Bell McDougal  but that is not Duncan's wife as she shows in Laggan. 
Do you have Torosay 1861 census - any Mclullich?
I imagine if Duncan left the island then so did some of his siblings and I may have found some in Glasgow as McDougal.
Thanks
Tricia

Hi Rob,

Do you have any further information on your Patterson connection to the Isle of Mull? birth dates, etc.?
