Alexander McIntyre, born Morvern 1815, and family

[MonicaL]

I think this is their entry for 1891:

Colin McIntyre 45 fisherman b. Morvern
George Davidson 32 boarder pedler b. Alva
Flora Davidson 32 boarder b. Morvern....I think this is Colin's sister

Address: 7 Combie St Back, Oban

This is Colin's last census before his death.

Added: Can't see a Davidson/McIntyre marriage.

There is a Duncan of the right age visiting another McIntyre family in 1861

The names in the family that he is visiting make me wonder if they are related to the family we are trying to make sense of.

On Colin's death certificate 1898, I assume his father is deceased - can you confirm please.

Yes. I was looking for Colin with a birthdate of 1849 plus or minus two years, which is why I failed to find him.

Yes, Alexander, occupation fisherman, is deceased on Colin’s death certificate.

An interesting one. There are three Duncan hypotheses: died very young; brought up in another family; known as Colin.

That’s the family. Flora seems to have gone by the name of Davidson though I don’t believe she and George married. Their children’s births were registered by both of them and noted as illegitimate.

[Neale1961]

I think you found the correct Margaret in 1871 working as a domestic srvant.
This 1881 census record had me interested, as I thought it might be Margaret. Note the names of her children Sarah and Alexander. Of course I can't find a suitable marriage for them.
Of course, maybe they were not married.

It is always difficult when there is no baptism records for any of Alexander & Sarah's  children
