My grandfather, James (no middle name) Macintosh was born in Ardersier / Campbelltown in approx. 1861.
He did not capitalize the "i" in Macintosh.
Our family knows nothing else about his early life. Perhaps he was an orphan, as he never spoke about
his younger years.
He joined the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders and served in India. He married Alice Harrington of Birkshire, England.
They had 3 children before emigrating to Canada in the early 1900's.
If anyone has any helpful information, it would be greatly appreciated.
Also, would there be church records that I could access?
Thanks so much...
Jean E.
