Hi Kyle, No I copied the information a few years ago. I dont have all the info from Mull unfortunately on the Livingstones from that census. THere a number of McPhee families listed in the 1779 census living in close proximity in Movern to Livingstones, so it reinforces the notion that Roberta and Jewel's ancestor did indeed come from Movern. regards, Donald

Hi Jerry, Well that Neil Livingstone according to the Red River Census record was born about 1764 which would make him only about 15 or so at the time of this census. So probably too young to show up as a married tenant and householder. I greatly regret that the 1779 census did not include the names and ages of the entire fammily. THen we could probably find your Neil in that census. I am going to someday go to the National Archives in Ottawa, ', Ontario Canada and spend about a week going through Lord Selkirks papers n his Red River settlement and go through all leters and document pertaining to the period our ancestors were there. I have seen some of it, but not all I dont think that might be there.

Hi All, Ralph Livingstone was asking about other possible records. There is apparently a 1799 list of Argyll recruits
