Macleod
« on: Wednesday 19 December 07 14:28 GMT (UK) »
Hi i dont know if anyone can help me but i thought i would give it a go :)

i have lost a couple of brothers and 1 supposedly went to NZ
i am looking for any information on either Hugh Macleod b1877, John Macleod b1882, Murdo Macleod b 1879 or Kenneth Macleod b1885 all born in Altas, Creich, Sutherland Fathers name was Donald Macleod married to Betsey Macleod it is possible they went to the Dunedin area to be with one of the sisters Catherine (Katie) Macleod b1891 in Altas who i think married ???? Dobie and had a child Kenneth Dobie 
If any of that makes sense :o :o

Hopefully

Hi Kate
Wow that is great  and it all seems to fit at the moment as for middle names i dont know all i have is their DOB and Parents names and birthplace and sometimes they spelt Macleod/Mcleod i think it varied from family to family
But with the middle names you have they all fit with the rest of the family
without being cheeky would there be any chance of finding dates of birth or anything else to nail the connection.
Thanks again

Kate
to narrow it down a bit all dates should be after 1890  and i am sure Catherine had at least 1 child
Thanks

Well havent found any children of Catherine but that does not mean theyare not there I have the deaths of James and Catherine Dobbie
James John Dobbie
Canvastown Blenheim
farmer Will filed July 03 1951

Catherine Elizabeth Dobbie died 1945 aged 52yrs Havelock in same area as James.
In looking back on your MacLeod tree maybe some of the surnames are second names etc.
In the 1893 Electrol roll
Donald MacLeod Mornington Dunedin Blacksmith
there was a Kenneth and a John Macleod in Westland Kenneth was a miner and John was a settler If you find out any more I am only too happy to see what I can do Cheers KateNZ

Hi Kate
Thanks for that i think you have the right Catherine and James John Dobbie
I can definitely rule out the Donald as i have found his death Entry in Altas, Sutherland but would like to see if there is any more on Kenneth Macleod as he is still unaccounted for and i really do appreciate your help

Thanks
