Ok, my father was Angus son of Maggie.
my granny Maggie was the youngest of 10 kids.
Did your Catherine marry James Smith. ?

no my catherine mckay married george gordon,  we cant find out who my great grandad's father was. he obviously had his mothers name mckay.  im kinda stuck on his father.  My grandmas grandmother catherine mckay was from strichen.

The Catherine McKay who married George Gordon  in 1901was the daughter of
David McKay and Jane Logie.  and the Catherine McKay who married James Smith
 in 1867 was the daughter of William McKay and Mary Wilson, does that help.
