Looking for some help in tracing my mothers paternal ancestors. I only get as far as my ggrandfather before I hit a problem. What I have as fact is Archibald McKinnon m. Margaret Campbell 15/02/1895 in Glasgow, I have the original m. certificate. On it it gives Archibald's father as John Mckinnon (labourer) & mother as Euphemia ms Beaton (deceased). Archibald & Margaret had two children, John(my g/f) b. 29/06/1895 & Charlotte b.09/04/1897. I have all 4 on the 1901 census.
Now the problem.
I cannot find any trace of a John McKinnon/Euphemia Beaton marriage, I did find a Dugald/Euphemia and James McKinnon/Euphemia Beaton marriages but can't prove if these are my family.
The oral tradition in the family is that this line goes back to the Isle of Coll. Any help would be much appreciated even if its just pointing me in the right direction.
