LEITCH/BUCHANAN/HARPER of Campbeltown area

Postby JUNIPER » Sun Apr 06, 2014 9:10 pm

I am hoping that someone might be able to help regarding the above families, based around the Campbeltown area in the later 1700's/ early 1800's.

My 3x great grandmother, Agnes Leitch was born in Campbeltown around 1831. She married an Alexander Harper and moved to Greenock. Agnes's parents were Archibald Leitch (born 1806, Campbeltown) and Janet Buchanan. Archibald and Janet married in Dec 1818 in Campbeltown. Archibald's parents were Duncan Leitch ( from the parish of Ballochantuigh as written in the OPR- could this be the modern day "Bellochantuy?) and Janet Macilcheir.

I am looking for more information on any of the above families, about occupations, family life etc.

I will also be visiting the Campbeltown area this summer so would be interested to visit any places that may still exist whilst I am there.

Kind Regards,

Jennifer Renshaw
