Dates - well, that's part of the problem. I believe Neil Ban MacLean of Boreray was probably born before 1620 and maybe as early as 1600. Another son John, brother to Archibald of Kirkibost, was a tacksman at Boreray in 1695 when Martin visited the island so Neil Ban was dead by then. This John died in 1723.I would guestimate that Archibald was born about 1640, his son Neil (of Kenloch) born about 1690, grandson Hector born about 1710, greatgrandson Neil born about 1730, and great great grandson Donald born about 1750.

Is Kenloch a tack on North Uist or is it in Skye - these MacLeans starting with Neil (b~1690) were known as "of Kenloch" with Rev. MacLean's father being "Donald MacLean, 4th of Kenloch". I'm looking in Uist for answers but perhaps I'm in the wrong part of Scotland???

I know that Donald MacLean (~1750) married a Margaret MacLeod and they had a son Rev. Roderick MacLean b. 1772 on Skye. Rev. MacLean died at Drimsdale, South Uist in 1854. Donald married a second time and a daughter from that union ended up in Cape Breton Nova scotia - just down the road from where I was raised. I'm not closely related to the family but I thought it would be nice to gather what info I could on their ancestry.

Thanks Anne Marie,

I have found those websites and more but there isn't a lot of referencing involved and I'm looking for more evidence. I'll probably create profiles for these individuals on WikiTree and would like some proof instead or heresay.

Aodh,

You could get in touch with the tree owners who may well have the source details & maybe just haven't put them online as it's a very time consuming thing.

I believe Kinloch to be on the Isle of Rhum which was owned by MacLean of Isle of Coll

Try these for some details:

While there is a Kinloch on the Isle of Rum that is not the same MacLeans. I am descended from the Rum MacLeans and have thoroughly researched that family. I've been in touch with Nicholas MacLean-Bristol and I have his books which cover the Coll MacLeans of which Rum is part. There are several Kinlochs in Scotland - there is another in Fife, one in Skye and perhaps one in Uist and maybe more.
Thanks

Aodh,

I have no knowledge of MacLean ancestry, merely trying to help as I enjoy genealogy  ::)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Maclean

Kinloch on South Uist could be of significance but I believe the MacLeans on Uist to have come from Coll?

There is also Kinloch Rannoch (Perthshire), Kinlochmoidart (Inverness-shire), Kinlochleven (Lochaber), Kinlochbervie (Sutherland, Highlands)

South Uist, Inverness-shire, Scotland:- Bowie, Campbell, Cumming, Currie

Ireland:- Cullen, Flannigan (Derry), Donahoe/Donaghue (variants) (Cork), McCrate (Tipperary), Mellon, Tol(l)and (Donegal & Tyrone)

Newcastle-on-Tyne/Durham (Northumberland):- Harrison, Jude, Kemp, Lunn, Mellon, Robson, Stirling

Kettering, Northampton:- MacKinnon

Canada:- Callaghan, Cumming, MacPhee
