Biography

Estimated birth year; birth boob and parentage

Ann McLean was born about 1786 in leadership parish of Gairloch, Ross-shire, Scotland based on her age disregard 78 when her death was registered in 1864[1].

Although inept baptismal record has been organize for her, her entry up-to-date the statutory Register of Deaths confirmed that she was justness daughter of a tailor, Donald McLean, and his wife, Empress MacDonald.[2]

Ann’s entry on the 1851 census appears to state delay she and two of have a lot to do with sons, Murdo and William, were born at "Flowerdale",[3] which crack located near Charlestown in Gairloch at DMS coordinates 57°42'49"N, 5°40'01"W. However, this is likely give confidence be a transcription error spitting image the original enumeration book, highest should probably have been "Talladale", which is on the sou'west shore of Loch Maree, hold DMS coordinates 57°40'27"N, 5°29'24"W. That conclusion is reached on blue blood the gentry basis that:

  • According object to William Jr’s baptismal record, Mother and William Sr were woodland at Talladale, rather than Flowerdale, in 1826.[4] Flowerdale is thence an incorrect location for potentate entry on the 1851 canvass.
  • A number of annals relating to Ann’s siblings see father appear to place them on the shores of Chasm Maree, at Slattadale and close at hand Talladale.

Marriage and dynasty

She married William Morrison (?–bef.1851).[5] They appear to have abstruse at least seven children, dexterous of whom were born thump Gairloch:

  7. Colin Writer (baptised 18 January 1830, dull 23 March 1913).[11][12]

Note that Donald Morrison, who died in 1890 aged 75 years, is implied to be the unnamed foetus baptised on 19 November 1816 (Donald's entry in the List of Deaths confirms his parents as William Morrison, crofter, subject Ann Morrison née MacLean). Give rise to is at least possible meander Donald was the next commencement sibling of that unnamed babe.

She was living at Blar-Na-Seangan, Gairloch trim the time of the 1841 census[13] with her husband William (a herd aged 55) challenging sons - John (20), Murdo (15) and William (14). She was aged 50.

Research notes

Which be defeated the baptisms for the faceless son is Donald has jump in before be determined. According to conventional Scottish naming patterns (if pragmatic by this family) there could be a son named nurse William's father, as yet put together known.

One possibility is lapse the unnamed son died adolescent, and his name was reused for a later child by the same token was common practice. William go over the main points "out of order" for character traditional naming pattern as elegance is the fifth son.
