Comments

My gggrandfather Donald Chisholm, mariner, was born in the parish of Gairloch and married 1832 in Lancaster and settled there, dying in 1850. His age was listed differently in different records; either 40 or 65. I think 65 is the accurate age. I can find no more information on him, so checking other Chisholms in Gairloch, hoping for a connection. Can anyone help? Thank you.
