Hi rianemalo,
Welcome to the forum.   
Your granny, Flora Murray, was my mothers cousin.  Flora's father Arthur Scot Murray and my granny, Flora McLure McIntyre Murray were brother and sister.
Roseann McEwen who posts on this forum would be your cousin - her parents were Elizabeth Maloney and Thomas McEwen.
If you are after info on the Maloneys she's your girl.  If you are after info on the Murrays then cousin Deb (Deb in B.C.) or I can
help you out there.
Helen

Hi, yes it has been a long time hasn't it?  How are you?  How's the research going?
It's been very quiet on the McLure front hasn't it?

I don't know if you remember me Debbie.  You helped me a while back with the McLures.  Now I am headed for Scotland and would love to put my feet on the sod where my great grandfather walked.  He was Neil McLure born in Broadford January 1855.  I will send more info if someone can help me.

Is your book available.  The McLure one?
Thanks

Hi there,
My lot are all from the Sleat and Sasaig areas of Skye - family names of McGillivray, Matheson, Nicolson and Robertson.

I do have an Angus McGillivray who married a Mary McLure in about 1819,  and she then died sometime before 1825, when Angus remarried. They were living in Druiforn Sleat.

Does this ring any bells - would love any info you might have connecting with these families!!
Thanks then!

Hi Kylie,
I am a Sleat/Lower Breakish descendant of McGillivray, Nicolson, and Munro.  Am an Aussie and I think you have gone further back than me but suspect there is definitely a link.  Hope we can chat re this, my email is (*)

Have not worked out how to use this forum properly yet.  Grateful for any advice.

Mary
