i'm trying to find Donald Mclennans death, I think he was born to Donald McLennan and Mary McKenzie in 1765 at Killearnan Ross & Cromarty.He married Ann Paterson in1813 at Knockbain in Ross & Cromarty. She was born in1795, do you think he could have been married before as there is such a difference in their ages. Ann died in1875 age 90, so he must have died well before that. Can anyone help? anything would be appreciated.

Hi there

Have you had a search for them on the 1841 census yet?

Best wishes

Donald is still alive and at the same address in 1851, born Urray. Ann's age is given as 64. so if his death is not on SP he died somewhere between 1851 and 1855.
