Archibald McDonald's Narrative published 1816

<r>Hi, I understand Jean Cole is a descendant of Archie McDonald. I notice that there is not much new that can be said about Lord Selkirk. Most of the books retell the same story. Their main differences are in their point of view and their attitude toward him and what he was doing. The main library ...

Archibald McDonald's Narrative published 1816

<t>Hi, Donald, I think you mentioned the book, Exile in the Wilderness, about Archibald McDonald. It just happens that Elizabeth Campbell has a review of it in the newsletter for The Lord Selkirk Assn. that just arrived. So I checked the WorldCat, and there is a copy in the library in Portland (OR)....

Hi, I missed everybody for a couple of days. Yes, I always thought the 1815 party left from Stromness, until I read The Silver Chief. It says Thurso. Edith

<t>Hi, Donald, I'm sorry I didn't get the yesterday (Saturday) messages answered sooner. I printed out the one about the lists so I could study my papers offline, then forgot to do that before I got online again today (Sunday). I was using the term passenger list too loosely. The list printed in the...

<t>Hi, Donald. First - yes, Catherine and Ann McGillivray (or however it's spelled) were sisters. The Selkirk Assn. book has a long list they call a passenger list for the 1812 party, but it actually is the list of people who expresssed interest in going, but very few of them actually did - you have...

<t>Thank you for the mini family tree. I am at the library because I have a slow old dial-up connection at home and the computer here is enough faster to make it worthwhile to only have a couple of hours on it a day - it keeps me from wasting all my time on the computer, too! So my specific info is ...
