Hi,
I'm interested in the family and ancestry of Angus Cameron, inn/ferry keeper at Aird Ferry, Dornie, in Lochalsh parish. He married Ann McDonald and died in 1859. Unfortunately his parents names were left blank on his death certificate, but prior to living at Aird Ferry he lived in the Lochaber area, and was an army pensioner, possibly identical to an Angus Cameron whose discharge documents list his birthplace as Kilmillie (Kilmally?) parish.
Following his death his daughter Ann Cameron took over the running of the inn and ferry. Various Cameron nieces/nephews from Australia and Canada returned to help her as she grew older. She died in 1890. Two nephews (both named Donald Cameron) took over the business after that until at least 1901. I'm in touch with descendants in Inverness but I know there must be many more stemming from Angus's sons who went to Australia & Nova Scotia.
Information gladly exchanged
