• Notes

  William McGregor, married Isabella McFarlane at St Cuthberts, Edinburgh, on 15 March 1839. Marriage entry confirms his parentage (father John, Grocer at Shian in parish of Kenmore) and Isabella as the daughter of George, Gamekeeper to the Earl of Breadalbane, Killin. Regarding William's father, John, I don't believe the ancestry shown for him is correct - his parentage has proved very difficult to positively identify.

They had a number of marriages to McFarlanes. The McFarlanes I know of don't seem to be in your database. William McGregor, Person ID 16670, married Isabella McFarlane at St Cuthberts, Edinburgh, on 15 March 1839. The detailed marriage entry confirms his parentage (father John, Grocer at Shian in parish of Kenmore) and Isabella as the daughter of George, Gamekeeper to the Earl of Breadalbane, Killin. I believe she is the Isabell McFarlane, daughter of George McFarlane and Janet Cameron who was baptized on 2 April 1816 at Killin. Her sister is Christian or Christina McFarlane baptized Killin on 23 June 1814, first married a McDonald, then married Peter Fair at Duns, Berwickshire, on 2 June 1845. Also, regarding William's father, John - Person ID 16663, I don't believe the ancestry shown for him is correct - his parentage has proved very difficult to positively identify.
