Comment:
I have traced my family back to this area in the late 1790's to late 1800's. Could you tell me if there is a local cemetry near Croftnacreich or Charleston?

The family lived for many decades at Croftnacreich. John Campbell (b aprx 1789)who married Annie McDonald. Both born in this area.
Their son Donald Campbell and wife Sarah were Inn Keepers at Charleston Inn during the 1881 census.
John Campbells father Alexander and Alexanders wife Helen MacEntosh may have also been from this area but cannot seem to find much info on them.

I was curious as to whether there may be any descendants of these couples still in the area? Maybe a long shot!
Would love to hear from anyone who may be able to help. Thanks

Christine

Linda McCreight
Does anyone know what has happened to Linda McCreight (nee Farrell) formerly of Bellfield Road in North Kessock? I am a distant relative. My wife and I are worried she may have died, but are hopeful someone perhaps knows where she has moved to?

Many thanks,

Michael

I remember Nellie and "Cabbie" well. I'll put a photo on the "Kessock Views" page of them.

Who remembers me/my family?
The Haddow family lived in Charleston from 1964-69. My father Murray played an active part in the early Kessock Gala Weeks. I'm Graham ,and am working in Inverness for 6 months, living in a house near Drumsmittal. I would be interested in making contact with anyone who knew me/my family.
