Dont know if any of you can help me but this was the only other thread that I could find pertaining specifically to Dunkeld Perth.

I am looking for the parents and ancestors of one Alexander McIntosh who was born at Redgorton ( or Dull ) Perth on 14 Sep 1788

Alexander McIntosh married Elizabeth ( Ann ) Stewart 20 May 1802, These individuals appear in the 1841,1851,1861 Scottish Census and the Dunkeld Church records, together they had issue John b. 1825, Peter b 1831, Henry b 1832, Gordon b. 1 Jun 1834, Charles b. 1837, Elizabeth b 1840 and Neil b. 1843.Records show them as living in Moulin Parish Perth and Dunkeld Perth.The children appear to have all been born in Redgorton Perth. There may have been other offspring as I did not find Gordon on the census records but did find him in the IGI databases showing the correct parents and location.

Alexander's father appears to have been John McIntosh. This John may be the son of Alexander McIntosh who married Grizel or Grissel McNab on 2 Feb 1784 . From this marriage there were 5 children including an Alexander who was born at Moulin Parish.

However, there are two John McIntoshs listed for Moulin parish and both have a son named Alexander. I am trying to make a connection to the right John.

The Charles above noted is my g.g.g.garandfather who imigrated from Dunkeld in the 1860-70's and settled into Allens Township Scott County Iowa. His sons then moved to Il. First in Rock Island Il and later Chicago.

Charles b. 1837 was married to Mary Leslie also b. 1837 and had a son named Gordon who in turn had a son Donald Scott who had a son Donald Gordon, who had a son Gordon Donald, my brother.

If you can help with any of these people it would be appreciated. Perhaps I can pin Alexander down by way of one of his brothers.

Hi Tiff,

I've got the MIs for Dunkeld Cathedral, Little Dunkeld and Birnam, Dunkeld. Are you looking for anyone specific in these areas?
 I also have the pre 1855 gravestone index for east perthshire (Strathmore & Carse of Gowrie)

Hi Jean,

Would be extremely interested if you could look in MIs for Dunkeld Cathedral, Little Dunkeld & Birnam for MacLauchlans (they have been spelt various ways but not with a "g" or lin).
The furtherest I have been able to go back is my g.g.grandfather
John McLauchlan b: 1801 Dunkeld who came to NZ in 1855.
Who I would dearly love to find are his parents & siblings.

I know it is a long shot but hope to be back there again 2010 (last time) & would really love to find them.  There may have been a brother Robert. John's son's names were John, William & James & daughters Ann & Majory (after wife).

Your lookup would be wonderful Jean,
Many thanks,
Tiff
