Hi Annie
I have the dates for Mary's siblings I think I got them from the croft book.
 
I looked on the cemetery website a while back and again on Monday.

This is the ref. for Mary who was born 1855 (1st year of Statutory Registration) & will give you an enormous amount of further info. i.e. worth the purchase if you don't already have it as it will contain far more info. than on an earlier Baptism which would only give minimum info...

MCPHERSON MARY
1855
118/ 120
South Uist

P.S....I've been having probs for days with comp/net cutting off all the time.

Marriage for Mary's g/parents;

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XT5N-2Z2

I haven't seen the original i.e. I don't know who her parents were.

The strange thing is her birth has been given as both Skye & Ireland  ::)

I haven't checked census' yet to find out what they say.

1861 - Jessie Montgomery gives her pob as Dublin

Children Ronald & Alexander were obviously born prior to the marriage as Ronald is 4 & Alexander is 1

Shonnag,

This is confusing...

Ranald/Ronald was born as Rory Donald which is actually Roderick & not Ronald!!!  ???  ::)

MONTGOMERY RORY DONALD
1860
112/1 16
Kilmuir (Inverness)

There is no corresponding entry with surname M(a)cKay i.e. possibly there may be an entry of 'RCE' attached whereby the father (Donald) admits paternity but that will only be known from the original download?

Ohh.. ;D

Mackay Or Montgomery (no forename attached although probably Alexander)  ???  ::)
Birth Date 18 Jul 1859, SOUTH UIST
Father Donald Mackay
Mother Janet Montgomery

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XYYH-44X

I think that relates to Alexander who would (in effect) still only be 1 yr old in 1861 census (c Apr) as he wouldn't be 2 yrs old until the July.

Strangely, there's no entry under either surname on SP  ???
I searched under the 4 obvious initials which may have been mistranscribed i.e. M, H, W & N with absolutely nothing & I didn't input a forename initial  :-\

So... where did the IGI (familysearch.org) find that info.  ???

It's well into the 'Statutory' period whereby it was law to register all BMDs so it's a complete mystery indeed although I also searched the OPRs.

Just wondering if you have the birth registrations of the children or at least Ranald/Ronald/Rory/Roderick who is actually your ancestor in order to proceed back a generation?

This is where it is important to find the actual roots when illegitimate children are found as the descending surname may be taken from a step-father' i.e. not the true ancestry.
