Hi Annie

I have found the marriage cretifciate for Ronald Mackay and Mary Macpherson which states Ronald was 19 when he married in 1875 which would make his year of birth 1856.

Shonnag,

It would depend on what month his birthday was e.g. if he married Mar 1875 aged 19 & his 20th birthday was Jul that would make his birth year 1855 so it's hard to tell.

Hi Shonnag,

I have checked every scenario with spellings & can't find him b 1855 - 1856 anywhere in Scotland i.e. there may have been an error on the indexing, who knows?

Hi Annie

I was just checking the croft book for Donald and Jessie
I think I missed this the first time.
Entry:
cottars at Buaile Dubh
 Donald Mackay 1825-1883
=Jessie Montgomery 1826-1879
Ranald =Mary Macpherson
Alex
House passed to stepson Archie Macpherson 1849
Does this mean Jessie had an other son

Hi Shonnag,

That does look very likely...

'Gilleasbuig Saor mac Seonaid Mhicgumraid''
 
My interpretation would be (he was illegitimate as his mother's name & surname are used rather than his father's 'MacPherson') ...

Archibald, Joiner/Carpenter son of Janet/Jessie & although I haven't ever come across Montgomery in gaelic the 'Mhic' (I think) may be 'daughter of' & 'Gumraid' just seems to be 'Gomery' but maybe someone with more gaelic knowledge can help as I'm only used to 'Mc/Mac' surnames where it means 'son of' or 'nighean/n'in' (daughter of)?

Archibald's marriage will give details of his parentage (mother at least) but hopefully he gives his father's name too  :-\
