Hi All,

Just getting those genealogical juices going again after an absence of a few years.

A distant relative that I met after I visited Scotland several years ago provided priceless information about our Fraser's from Boleskine, Inverness-shire.

Mainly Angus Fraser of Balnaguilon married to Catherine McKay of Balnafettack in the Parish of Dores on the 13th February 1765.

They had five sons and three daughters as Jannet(1769), Alexander (1771), Catherine(1774), William(1776), Margaret(1780), John(1783), Donald(1788) and Angus(1791).

My lineage is from the second son in William Fraser b. 10-Sep-1776. He resided until his death at Muirnich farm near Stratherrick. Strangely, he also married (8th Aug 1828) a Margaret McKay after the death of his first wife Catherine McDonald (another mystery, cannot confirm date of birth/death/reason for death).

I've hit a brickwall with Angus and Catherine being unable to find birth/death dates or any other parental information.

Does anyone have any connections that are familiar with any of these ole Fraser's. I would be most grateful for any info, even some history on any of the places listed.

Many thanks in advance.
