Surnames: McRae, McPherson, McKenzie, Lillico, Armstrong, Robson, Robinson, Young
Seeking to link up with McRae cousins in Ontario. Murdo McRae (1810-1861) married Ann McPherson: they migrated from Inverness Sct to Ayr, Ontario where they farmed and brought up their six children:-
1. Margaret McRae (1836-1904) who married Alexander McKenzie.
2. Donald McRae (1838-1857): unmarried.
3. Isabella McRae (1939-1874 who married Robert Lillico.
4. Ann McRae (1843-1903) who married John E Armstrong.
5. Catherine McRae (1845-1897) who married Thomas Robson.
6. ANDREW McRAE (1848-1897) who married ISABELLA ROBINSON. This family family and most of their descendants lived in Dumfries, Brant and I am very keen to exchange information on our mutual family history.

The above Murdo McRae (who moved to Ontario) was the 11th child of Donald McRae and Isabel Young from the Black Isle, Ross-shire, Sct. Donald and Isabel's 6th child was Rev John McRae and I am descended from him.

Hi John. Wondered if you have made any Macrae cousin contacts as of yet. I am not related but have an interest through our Stockton family only. I have a Stockton cousin who would be related who has done extensive research on various families. I am not sure if you may have made contact before or if she is still interested. You can email me at lculling@sympatico.ca & I could perhaps help if she is interested also. Elaine
