John Livingston son of Adam Livingstone of Bachuil,Lismore

Post by Canadian Livingstone »

One John Livingston a native of Lismore and a nephew of Baron Coll Livingstone of Bachuil, Lismore residing with his wife Catharrine ( McCorquodale) in 1841 in Gorbals, Lanarkshire named his son Adam and I have seen the name Adam I think in the Bachuil, Lismore Livingston family parish records. Not used that often amongst Western Argyllshire livingstons so when it is used it stands out in the records.(THere were a few Adams connected to Donald Livingston's Savary, Morvern family group)

Actually Baron Coll Livingston's brother was an Adam Livingston born abt. 1778 at Bachuil, Lismore. Adam married Mary McCorquodale and eldest son John Livingston his son married Catharine McCorquodale of Lismore. By 1841 John and Catharine are residing in Gorbals, Lanarkshire. In 1861 John and Catharine and family are in Govan, Glasgow, Lanarkshire. John and Catharine are recorded as being born at Lismore in Argyllshire in the 1851 Census. John Livingston died December 11th 1871 in the District of Govan Church, Lanarkshire widower of Catharine McCorkingdale at the age of 61 and was recorded as the son of Adam Livingston and Mary McCorkingdale. His age in the census records varys and these and his death date do not match the baptismal date recorded in the Lismore parish records oddly enough but the parents listed in the baptismal info and death record match. John's Uncle was Baron Coll Livingstone born 1773 at Bachuil, Lismore. John's father Adam Livingston would be a great-great Uncle of our current Chief Baron Niall Livingstone and his older brother Coll, Baron Livingstone's great-great grandfather.
