John McCormick and Mary McFarlane, married at Iona 1846
« on: Sunday 15 July 12 18:20 BST (UK) »
Monica,
  I am new to this and having some difficulty getting to the McFarlane links, so I just grabbed this one to contact you.  Coincidentally, McCormicks are a sept of the McLean Clan.
  You answered questions about Hugh McFarlane of Mull and Iona that caught my eye.  My great great grandparents, John McCormick and Mary McFarlane were married at Iona on December 19, 1846.  They had one son, John, before emigrating to Canada.
 I noticed that the Hugh McFarlane family given names are, for the most part, the same names given to John and Mary's children.  My great grandfather, Angus, was the second son born to the marriage.  They also had sons named, Alexander, Hugh and Neil, I am wondering if my gg Grandmother, Mary is part of the family you reference in your post.

Hi Jim

Welcome to RootsChat  :)

I think this is the post from 2006 that you are referring to for the McFarlane family www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,198728.0.html

I split your post off from the other McLean one so that yours stands out by itself!

Is this the family tree ? http://gordonmaccormick.com/pages/john1816.htm
