Donald McBean of Dores Inverness
« on: Friday 16 October 09 02:56 BST (UK) »
Hello I would love to make contact with anyone researching the following line -

Donald McBean of Dores Inverness born 1802 (parents William McBean and Catherine McDonald). He married Graham McKenzie (yes this is a woman's name) who is a bit of a mystery. Some sources say she was born in Edinburghshire while others say Lanarkshire. She was at least 30 years younger than Donald - born 1831 (Parents Donald McKenzie and Elizabeth Graham). They had Jane born in 1851 in Inverness and Catherine born in 1853 in Ballachulish Glencoe Argyle. The four emigrated to Australia on the Sabrina in 1855. This family settled in Queensland and had a total of 12 children of which there was 2 sets of twins.
