Hi Craig and Kyle, Well done Craig. A masterpiece of fine research. A very interesting document you have unearthed. Quite right Kyle as I think you and Craig suspected all along there is a close connection between the Bute and Linsaig McLeas. Donald

Hi Kyle, We have good data that McLeas were at Lindsaig, Bute and Inverarary from the late 1600s.

Hi Kyle, You are too young to have a bad memory. My cousin, James McClay, was DNA tested.

Kyle, Hate to say this, but the 1662 reference is on your web site: articles, tales. You are too young to have senior moments. Those are reserved for us older folks. Craig

I found this part interesting John McLea had died by 1745, when his underage eldest son, Alexander became heir.
