Isle of Coll/Tyree

I came across this thread and perhaps someone has encountered the family which I am interested in.

John McFadyen married Mary McLean on Nov. 22, 1831.  He lived in Acha at the time while she was at Grimsary.  The family lived in Grimsary and I am descended from their daughter Mary who married Hugh Young at Cambusnethan Parish Church on Dec. 9, 1864.

If anyone has any information about this family I would appreciate hearing from you.  While I have some information I am not confident of its accuracy.

Jim, welcome on board 

Why don't you just add some comments on the parts of the data you want some verification on and we can focus in on that?

Thank you.  What I have that I am reasonably confident of is that John McPhadrean married Isabella McTavish on 21 January 1792 at Glassary.  They had the following children:

Mary 1793-06-12
Peggy 1795-10-18
Janet 1796-09-30
Dougal 1800-10-30
Hugh 1803-04-17
Isabel 1805-03-19
John 1807-03-02
Archibald 1811-06-20
Jane 1814-09-24

I have no further information.  I am also looking at a McFadyen family from Coll to which I am related as well but on the other side of my family.  Of course the spelling variations haven't helped my research much.

Any help would be appreciated.

Jim.
