John Currie & Catherine Sellars, Isle of Arran

[Hanan]

I am trying to trace John & Catherine from Kilmory, Isle of Arran.  My connection  is with their daughter Catherine, b 1837 I have no trouble with her.

I am having no luck finding any information on John and Catherine and their children.

Thanks,
Hanan

Sorry - I only checked for them in Ayrshire as message posted on Ayrshire board. 

Moderator comment: I can take a hint - topic moved

Sorry all just realized my mistake of posting this in the wrong board.

I think the family in Tormore is the correct one.   

Thanks,

Hi Hanan

You might find Catherine's name is given as SILLARS - this is how many of the family spell it today.

Kind regards, Arranroots
