Comments
Is the date of death of Robert Junor correct? He would have been about 26 years younger than his wife Catherine. Is it possible that he died in 1855 aged 87, rather than 1885? This would make his birth year c.1768 and Catherine's c.1773. They seem to have married on 9 August 1793 at Avoch - her name given in Scotland's People as Katherine.
Thanks so much for these photos Roddie - without this one I would not have found my gggggrandparents John and Helen.

Well spotted, Bill. It's a typo. It should have been 1835 as Robert's death. The transcription is from a survey carried by the Highland Family History Society in 2004. Roddie
