Looking for John MACKENZIE-Kiltarlity,Inverness

[eilsjo]

Yes ev, it is.  That is why I know his father's name was John. There also seems to be a confusion with the spelling of his surname. He appears to spell it McKenzie here.  Not sure why. Thanks for your reply, much appreciated

Dropping the a from Mac was quite common, so I would not let that confuse you. Some info here.

The family you found in 1891 are living in the same Street at number 4 in 1901 census.


John Mackenzie 50 Piermaster (1891 has Postmaster so could be mis transcibed, do not have access to original).
Elizabeth Mackenzie 49
Barnabas Mackenzie 17
John Mackenzie 12
Grace Mackenzie 9
Maggie Mackenzie 8

All down as born Inverness.

Thanks Sharon for info re Mac n Mc, very interesting.
Also the Mackenzie info would fit perfectly with the age of John born in 1889. Also Elizabeth is also Betsy! I'm very excited now, thank you very much
