Hello Andy and Ian
Thanks so much for all that information.  Much more than I ever expected, as I never gave you much to go on.  I only had Caroline and a brother Donald, in my family tree.  Really appreciate all the trouble you have gone to.  Am very happy with the list too, although I have only been on it a few days.  I found more stuff to add to my Morrisons too.  Thanks once again.
Kind regards
Carol

Hi Rocky

Baptism of Caroline

03/09/1775 Donald Grange, alias Campbell, lately in Sartigrim and Clasneach, now in Islandhall and Ceannabin, Caroline

There is a marriage in 1766 as follows;-

20/11/1766 Donald Grange in Keoldale to Ann MacKay in Clasneach

There are a few other GRANGE families in the area, if you would like a complete breakdown of these let me know.


Andy



Hi again Andy
Can I please take you up on your kind offer of a complete breakdown of the GRANGE families in that area.  It may help me in future.  No hurry, just wherever you have a moment.
Thanks so much
Carol

Hello Andy
I am wondering if you can help me again please.  I have Christina (Christy) McKAY born 2 October 1821 in Durness and she married John WHYTE 24 Feb 1843. I have her parents as George McKAY and Dorathy McKAY, but cannot find any other information on the parents or any other children.  Could you please do a search for me, and see if anything comes to light?
Thanks again
Carol

Andy, I have just been sent the Death details of Christina McKay WHYTE and it gives her parents as John MACKAY (Crofter) and Flora MACKAY ms SUTHERLAND.  So could you please see if anything comes up for them. Thank you.
I hope you didn't get around to searching for George and Dorathy?
Kind regards
Carol

Hi Carol,

One of my 6X G. grandparents were John Mackay and Flora Forbes Sutherland. According to my records, they had a daughter, Christian, christened Sept 16, 1819. If this is "your" Christy, I have some information about her parents and her siblings. I note the date of birth is different.

Hew Morrison's transcript of the Durness Parish Register ends in 1814 so that source will not be of much help with Christy but the IGI may shed some light.

Hello Ian
Thanks for contacting me again.  I have just found out that the parents I had for Christina Mackay were incorrect!!  So that is why the dob is incorrect.  My next job was to try and find when she was born to John and Flora.  I would be really thrilled with any information that you can give me on her and her parents and siblings.  She married my Great Grandfather John WHYTE. 
Ian you have helped me before on the HH website.  Don't know if you remember me!!!
Kind regards
Carol (nee Whyte)
