Greetings |

My sister recently did a DNA genealogy test and although we always thought we were Irish, the results came back as "Scottish"". Our last name is McGinnis. I've always felt some odd connection to Scotland, so the results make me happy! |

Visited the homeland |
|
I visited the clan castle and Kiel Church a few years ago. Beautiful area! Found the McInnis name in a logbook at a croft house historic site on Skye. Maybe some of the names in that book travelled to Canada in the late 1800s where my family had its origins. |

Family tree research |
Hi all
With the help of Ancestry, I have traced back my family tree (Paternal side/Grandmother) to Angus MacInnes born in 1500. I hope it is correct and it's so interesting as up to a couple of generations ago, the MacInnes/MacLeods had remained in Skye.
Three generations back Christy MacInnes married a John MacLeod, eventually they moved down to the Glasgow area. |

Hey everyone!
I am working on my family tree. I am looking for information on Angus Aonghas (Og) MacInnis born December 3, 1787 Barra, Scotland married to Louisa MacDonald June 13, 1822 Kilbar, Barra, Scotland.
My family is planning on visiting in Summer 2023 to Barra and would like more information on ancestry and where we could visit to learn more. I would also like to add in Angus's parents. TIA |

Connecting The Old World To The New World |
|
I am the 8th generation from Charles of Bona Bonia(?). After viewing the 1914 reunion document lineage chart and confirming with a genealogical search, I am related to Charles; that solves the new world connection. I now need to uncover the history of Charles' family in Scotland. My hope is to journey to Scotland and touch the grave of Charles' father/family and then touch Charles' grave in Pennsylvania. It seems trivial but I need to close the loop on my family; connect the ancient to the modern. I want to pass this knowledge on to my son and grandson. Thank you for putting this website together. You have been a wealth of knowledge. Any thoughts on how to begin to research Charles' family history in Scotland? I also want to discover the family crest and tartan. I was given a crest as a gift from a store in Disneyland but I have some doubts it's historically accurate. Thanks for your time and efforts for the clan. See you on the Association side soon. |

The Son of a McMaster woman |
|
Recently did a DNA test that got me properly looking into my family history on my mother side. and uncovered the fact that prior to emigrating to Northern Ireland, my forebears were in fact Scotsmen and part of a sept of the MacInnes clan. Really cool history and I am looking to head up to the west coast of Scotland to go and check it out some of the historical sites soon. Would be cool if the clan reintroduced a chief. |

From Mississippi |
|
I was named after my Great Great Grandfather Phillip Alexander McInnis on my grandmother's side . Not sure who my father is but after taking DNA test from ancestry I do have 58% Scottish in me, which I know not all of that can be from my mother even if she was 100% Scottish. I feel most of Scottish is from the McInnis side. I just so happened to find this website after finding the homecoming tartan on the Scottish registry. |

History of Angus |
Hi, I am very interested in finding out our lines back to first Angus. I am also wondering if we were part of the Jacobite rebellion. I have registered for the DNA Project but my understanding is that because I am female this will not help in my search.
The furthest back that family members have been able to go is:
* my great great grandfather Angus McInnes 1846 Isle of Skye, Scotland married to Mary Jane Marjorie McInnes 1856 Portsmouth, England UK. *Great grandfather Donald McInnes born 1886 Newcastle Australia (2 x siblings born in New Zealand) married to Lucy Australia Miller Australia
*Grandfather Donald Alexander McInnes born 1922 Australia married Jean Butler born 1944 Australia
*Father John Howard McInnes |

Thanks for your site and the information. My name is Angus, which I was given from the hyphenated name of my Maternal Grandmother's side of the family. She wore a McInnes tartan kilt which was also passed down in recognition of the family line. Before she died I she told me that the Kinlochaline castle was something to do with our family, although the story is unclear. |

Return to My Homeland |
|
My husband and I are visiting Scotland this summer. We will be one hour away from my homeland on our tour on June 23rd, 2022. We are staying the night at Ballachulish Hotel, Argyll. I don't think that I can escape from our commercial tour for the day to visit Ardtornish. But, I will certainly try. Is there anyone who knows the easiest way to get to Ardtornish from Ballachulish? My dad visited years ago, and he was welcomed home in the pub. They sang songs and celebrated his reunion with his kin. I would love to experience this even if I have to go AWOL for a day. Like him, I'm a bit of a renegade. Janet Mac Innes Webb |

Western Canadian looking for possible relatives |
|
Hello! My name is Shandra McInnes (maiden name), and I have a 17 yr old son named Hunter McInnes. Hunter is the last (young) McInnes in my Grandfather's line. I don't know any other McInnes' that we might be related to. My Grandfather's name was Gordon McInnes, and apparently his mother changed our name from MacInnes (circa late 1800's). Gordon settled in Chemainus BC, where he married and raised his three children. |

Canadian McInnes looking for info |

Hello from Canada! I was trying to find out where the McInnes clan originated and came across this site. I look forward to browsing it! I don't know a lot about my ancestors however I would like to find out more information on my family history and about my dad's uncle, Charlie McInnes. He was a blind professor in Scotland. My dad was born here in Calgary,Alberta, Canada and his name was Douglas Glenson McInnes. My siblings and I all still spell it MCINNES with the exception of my older brother who changed his name to MACINNES. |

Skye Bowman link to Canada |
|
We have long assumed that the Arms matriculated by Murdoch MacInnes with the Arm and the Bow link back to the Skye Bowmen. But I have been unable to find any family linkage to support this. Murchoch came over on a Hector, but there are many Hector journeys, not just one. Anyone with more information that they can share. I was able on Ancestry.com to find the tree for Neil of the Bow, but Murdoch is not a name found in the tree. |

Oak Island Connections of Trees and McGinnis |
|
I am researching unique trees found in Nova Scotia on Oak Island as early as 1760 and photo'd till they disappeared in 1920. No other similar trees found in Western Hemisphere. Thought Oak, maybe evergreen. Recently found photo'd on Isle of Raasay near Isle of Skye. Seeking more tree info. Descendants of Maol Caluim McInnes born 1735 in Leitir Fura, who's son Donald McInnis born 1743-1798 also in Leitir Fura came to N.S. to establish Free Mason Lodge(s) in 1773. His son, Cpt. Donald Daniel McInnes/McInnis was born on the Isle of Skye (1762-1824. The rest of the lineage I have from current living descendants. Since the only linkage I have about those unknown canopied-trees between Isle of Raasay and Oak Island in Nova Scotia is the migration of McInnis/McInnes from Isle of Skye... seeking more information of both, and would earlier Scots (McInnis et. al.) bring such trees with them. Tree Description: Tall, with thin sinuous trunks of light colored bark or no bark, with a very thin top umbrella-shaped canopy supported by many upward branching limbs. No or few deformed lower branches, tree may separate into two stems/trunks. Photo'd near ocean/sea on peninsula (Isle of Raasay) or Oak Island (Nova Scotia) only. Not photo'd in fall foliage. Some Isle of Raasay photos shows some lower foliage bunches appear to be growing directly from the trunk, perhaps where limb-shedding has occurred. Would hire anyone to provide more info on either the McInnis men of Skye/Raasay/Leitir Fura circa 1735 to 1775. Hopefully related to above family or who moved to Nova Scotia/Oak Island/Chester/Lunenburg. And any information of Gaelic or Scottish lore regarding these trees. These trees were never cut down, even when all other trees in NS at the time were felled. Why? Any material received would be used in an upcoming book. If the material or providers are not authorizing it to be used, please let me know. Can be reached at dneisen@satx.rr.com Will provide photos. |

My father, Duncan William Macinnes was an RAF technician, based at MU60 for sometime,around 41/45 years ago...worked with the red arrows and on prince Charles's request (via p.a. I presume)..
My grandfather James Macinnes, an RAF pilot who never mentioned his raf past,his wife Henrietta Macinnes told of James being a hero,never any details..
I now have 2 sons Jet Li Macinnes and Luke John Macinnes, and they are the reason behind my search for details about our family name..

I answered the question on the DNA project thing about the farthest back ancestor I knew and I got a response that they thought I was after general info about the ancestor I shared and denied my DNA and told me to post my ancestor here... I didn't think it was for genealogy just DNA. I don't need genealogy help. I just wanted to donate to the project. Thanks for listening. Contact me please if you know what I did wrong or whatever. If anyone has any McInnis questions for McInnis in Mississippi or Missouri feel free to ask me! They are my specialty. |

Excited to learn |
Hello clan! I'm excited to learn about my Scottish side. My grandfather John was Scottish & had his family crests on display all my life.
When he passed on the crests were given to his eldest daughters. His father was adopted (unknown clan) so they were brought up under his mother's clan, the McInnes/MacInnes'. Their family (my great grandma) left Scotland when they were small (before my Grandpa was a thought) and they came to Canada.
My Grandfather was born and raised in Canada, met and married my Grandmother who was Indigenous (she passed as well). My Grandpa's children also married Indigenous so today in BC Canada there are MacInnes' that are also Indigenous/First Nations and will continue on our combined heritage.
I will be a sponge here and hope one day I can meet our clan in person once COVID takes a hike. |

I just discovered my great great grandmother was Harriett Ann McMaster of the Scottish Highlands. So of course I had to start the research.

All I can say is I KNEW I HAD SCOTTISH BLOOD IN ME!!! And I am happy!!!

Greetings to MacInnes (MacInnis) relatives far and wide!!! |
Greetings to all MacInnes's!
My part of the clan's spelling changed sometime around when my ancestors fled Scotland after the Battle of Culloden and made their way to Antigonish, Nova Scotia, Canada.
My father and many of his siblings came to the Detroit, Michigan, area in the early to mid-1920's.
I hope all reading this are well and of good cheer...we MacInnes's are a hearty bunch!
Best regards to all! |

a new form of angus |
|
hey guys recently came across a good tree trunk for the family and clan. the nameis Aeon'sgoth meaning one cloud. i believe it has a lot of power and should belong to our family, available to a growing tree of the future. what are your thoughts and if you'd like to get involved let me know. I will one day approach Lord Lyon of Scottland to get it approved and create a new crest. i have created a crest already. email if you'd like to see it and possibly pursue change to Aeon'sgoth along with me. |

New Angus differentiation |
Hey family,
I am seriously making a move to a new family name, Angos. I was previously McInnis but have gone through some things that inspired me to be Angos. Gos reminds me of sgoth, the Gaelic word for cloud. Clouds are powerful things, bringing rain and cover from the sun and so on. Excited for a new part of the family. Plus it will be beneficial to find our lineage from this day on. I will be sure to update the family tree and will soon be looking for records that lead me to our ancestral path. Have a good night and blessings to all of Angus. |

I came across this website while I was looking for some of my clan origins, found out I was a sept in the MacInnes. I started looking because My family hasn't been the best to me and I'd like to re establish my roots and get some new connections. My name comes from my Dads side and he grew up in Nova Scotia. I was hoping to visit Scotland over the summer to meet my clan and embrace some of the traditions. I was just wondering if there are any McMasters or MacMasters who would be happy to show a lost sheep its way haha. |

Halo uile, latha math dhut! |
My Names Jared E Angus. My Family is made up from the Campbells and the Angus clans. Very little was known but as a child I spent a lot of time with my great grandparents. My great grand fathers brother Told me that his fathers father had told him," there were 2 brothers Ike and Pike Macinnes That sailed from Scotland. they landed off the coast of Virginia and started a family in the blue ridge mountains. Piney rivers to be exact. Thats as much as I know. At some point my family lost the Macinnes and simplified it to Angus. Happy to meet any and all of your acquaintances And may god bless oyu. I know our "familes relation is probably very wide spread. As my great Grand mother who was a Campbell had 14 brothers and 13 sisters. Much the same family size for my great grand father. Any one who may have any Record of a Ike and Pike Macinnes or Angus let me know at

Hello All |

Hello Family, I am writing in search of stories surrounding Robert McInnes b. 1822. He left Scotland and landed in Thedford Not. Canada circa 1847. He married Lydia McPherson and moved to Lapeer Michigan. They had several children, one of which was my great great grandfather John Robert McInnes. John Robert married Melissa Chaterine Vary in 1876 who both died in Silverwood Michigan in 1929 and 1944 respectively. I am enjoying learning about my family. Please email me if you have any additional information. Be safe, |

The Castle! |
|
I made my trek to Lochaline almost a year ago. It's almost 20 miles of single track road driving to get there and it was terrifying but worth every second. I'm used to the wide roads of Canada. Scotland felt like a second home. The small village that had only one store for everyone was super friendly. I highly recommend it anyone who loves history and wants to see a part of it that you are connected to. I was hesitant to ring the bell but there wasn't anyone home anyway, but I did get several pictures and a fantastic memory. Not to mention alllll the other castles we stopped at that are everywhere. Doune castle was great. Lot's of film history in that one. Suffice to say that if you are interested, GO! |

Hello, I stumbled upon this page while looking up the Kinlochaline Castle. I have seen some of my ancestry in the past, and it stated we stem from Angus MacInnes, and somewhere the spelling changed. If I can find these documents would you be interested in copies? Also, I saw where a Donald Malcolm Mcinnis Jr had a post on here. We have a Malcolm Mcinnis in our tree, but unsure if he's got Donald in the name. This is all very fascinating and I'm glad to have found you site! Sincerely, Katherine Mcinnis Ray. |

Looking into Family ancestry |
Hello to all and thank you for allowing me to reach out . I am starting to research my ancestry, (my cousin did some of the legwork already) I recently found out my great great grandmother had the surname MacMaster. (Spelled with Mac) Her parents are Robert and Edith MacMaster from Abram ( once a Pictish village I believe) I am hoping to find kin who know of Robert MacMaster from that area. I am looking into doing a DNA, but not sure if it would be better determined by having my Sons done first . Any information on how I can best get looped in and truly trace my tree is greatly appreciated.

We always thought we were Irish |

We went to our first Celtic festival, and we have always thought we were just Irish. When we started talking about the families emigration, we dug deeper and found my great great great great great great grandpa was hung for a bar fight that turned south, and the family fled Scotland and dropped the name Angus.

Short history compared to others |
|
Angus and Mary {Campbell) emerated to the USA and settled in Tauton, Mssachusetts in the 1800's. That is far as I go with my ancestry. Why they came to the USA is a mystery. Not sure what employment Angus had. Daughter Mary is the great grandmother. She married Robert Afleck and had four daughters plus a son Peter. Peter died in his thirties. The four auntts Lizzie, Kate, Belle and Jennie would be grandparents to me. Jennie was my grandmother. Mary Aflect moved to Philadelphia and the trail stops there. Anyone relating to this information would be welcome. |

Hello from Downunder |
So pleased to have discovered your site and to read your Winter newsletter - page 11 certainly struck a cord with me "Let's Talk About Septs - and the MacMasters". My McMaster's are from Wigtownshire Scotland (traced them back to 1774) but perhaps with further research I might find they are descended from the MacMasters of Ardgour.
Cheers, Susan. |

The Nish's |
Hello and g'day to all from the great land down under!
From reading on this page I find that my family name would have originated from McNeish, in some searches I have found that McNeish's were a part of the McGreggor clan and now from this site it says MacInnes? Can anyone provide some clarity for me? I'm looking to find out more so I can obtain our family crest.
Would the McNeish's have had their own family crest/tartan colours or wore that of the main clan they were a sept of?
Any help or info would be appreciated.
Thanks |

Lost our "a" |
Are we non-a McInneses part of this plus-a MacInnes clan? I totally identify with the wild highlander standing barefoot in the snow, especially in contrast to the other gentlemen in their lovely court tartans and lace. The motto, "McInnes again!" reminds me of my first day in 3rd grade at Our Lady of Lourdes. Two nuns were walking by the line of us 3rd graders and when they passed me, I heard Sister Agnes Virginia say, "Another McInnes." I'm the youngest of 5. it's a blessing and a curse. I've been to Kinlochaline and as soon as I get enough butter together, I plan on buying it!

Descendant |
I am a direct descendant of John Macinnis of Argyllshire, 1735. I am just getting into all of this history, but am very fascinated with my Scottish roots. My grandmother is Macinnis (Mcinnis) and my grandfather was MacDonald. I've only been able to trace back to John Mcinnis so far. Please email me anything about the clan. I am meaning to travel during March 2019 to Scottland for the first time. Thanks

John A. McInnis |
I am so happy to have found this site!
I am researching the McInnis/McInnes (I have found at least two spellings) line of my family and have stalled at my great great grandfather, John McInnis who was born December 11, 1843 and died Aug. 3, 1866. He died in Caledon, Peel County, Ontario. I have him as being born in the same area but am skeptical about this. He was married to Catherine Baxter and had two children , Elizabeth and John Baxter McInnis. I would LOVE it if anyone can give me some guidance as I seem to run into a dead end everywhere I turn!!!  |

82 yr father did his y DNA full y MacInnis came up big time |
|
My father pasted on Dec 8 / 17 . He had full Y-DNA done. His and my maiden name was Bowes But his grandfather was illigetimate and whole family so wanted to know. MacInnis is apparently the Y DNA match. Alexander " Sandy " Bowes was his name mother's name Jessie Bowes from Motherwell / Glasgow area. I have read there is a DNA study being done of Mac Innis line. Other then Urguhart from Cromarty on my mother's side I have Mathesons Walkers MacLeods MacKnights etc from father's side. If the group would like the DNA results more then welcome From a new found MacInnis. |

Excited! |
So excited to find this page. My grandparents were from Skye and names were Catherine Macinnes and Donald McInnes (who was in the Police force there). My father, Thomas Macinnes - b 1927 d 1999, took his mothers name and they later moved to Cambletown on Kintyre. Dad had 4 siblings, Catherine, John, Donald and Jimmy (james). The whole family then settled in Dunoon, Argyle. I am in the process of finding dates so I can elaborate.
Looking forward to finding out more. |

descendant of Rory "Saor" MacInnis |
Just wanted to say hello and to let you know that I have inherited MacInnis land in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. It's been in my family since early 1800's. I havent walked all of it yet but it is so very special. I am truly blessed. I have been researching my family for almost 20 yrs so it is quite the feeling to finally have a great starting place to learn and grow. My line would be Rory(Saor), Michael(Saor), Donald, Stephen, James(Red), and James. My ancestors came over from Barra Scotland in 1817.
It is an honor to be a MacInnis. |

Ciamar a tha sibh,
I have been very interested in my clan history but believe there's Mudie also. I was named after my great uncle RIP, Alexander McInnes who was named after either HIS father or uncle.
If you have any info regarding my Great Uncle would be wonderful. I have hit a dead end looking into his history from ww2 back. I've been told he was a firefighter during the Battle of Britian/Blitz time period.
Tapadh leibh and it's wonderful to see Clan Macinnes rise again! |

Culloden Appin Marker |
Greetings MacInnes
I am also disappointed in the NTS placement of the name MacLaren on the Appin Marker. It gives the impression that Balquhidder MacLarens fought in the Appin Regiment, which they did not. There were 27 Appin McLaurins who fought in the Appin Regiment, including my ancestor Duncan McLaurin who later emigrated to N.C. in 1790. These McLaurins had been in Appin since at least 1468 and where maternal progenitors of Dugald McLaurin Stewart, 1st Appin. My view is that the current MacLaren Chief and Societies are simply glory hunters. Specifically stealing the Appin McLaurins history as their own. None of the McLaurin descendants were consulted and shows disrespect to the actual 13 McLaurins killed and 14 McLaurin survivors of Culloden.
These Appin McLaurins recognized the Stewart of Appin as Clan Chief (not the MacLaren Chief) and followed Ardsheal into battle. They had nothing to do with the Balquhidder MacLarens since the 15th century, when they left Strathearn to take Appin in the name of Dugald McLaurin Stewart, then settle there amongst the MacColl, Livingstone and MacInnes.
I have contacted NTS and Culloden itself to no avail, this insult to our common heritage needs to be revived and pursued vigorously.
A correction, The Perthshire MacLarens had a continuous line of Strathearn Clan Chiefs for at least 600 years up through the early 1900's. Donald McLaren of Ardveche, Strathearn was the last. This is not publicized because the current Clan Chief of the name MacLaren claim is bogus, he claims descent from Auchleskine which was not the Chiefs line, but a sub-branch. Modern scholarship has also shown his genealogy is a complete fabrication and that "The MacLarens" the so-called definitive history of the Clan is mostly fiction. Ex. Abbot Labran of Achtow the so-called progenitor of Clan MacLaren never existed.

Mary Macinnes |
|
My Grandmother Mary Macinnes left Oban sometime in the 1920's. Her reason for leaving was kept a secret, possibly pregnancy or something similar, however it was never mentioned. My father was born in Stafford, England in 1929-30, the father is not mentioned on his birth certificate. Does anyone know of a Mary Macinnes leaving their family around this time for reasons unexplained? Mary died when I was around 14 years old, 1969. I do have an old photo of her if it helps. Thank you. |

Malcolm(Calum Mor) MacInnes |
Hello, I am a great grandson of Isabella MacInnes, Daughter of Alexander MacInnes, son of Malcolm (Calum Mor) of Heast.
Alexander and Isabella came to Australia in 1853. She married Donald, son of Archie(Tigharry North Uist, son of Ranald, son of Archie ban of Grianan) MacDonald in Australia.
Just wondering if anyone had any further info on the the Calum Mor generation and beyond.
I am reasonably certain I have things correct as far as Malcolm.
Cheers. |

Interested in learning more about the family. |
Was doing research on McNease name and found this site: https://www.houseofnames.com/mcnease-family-crest
The site states that the original family name is a Dalriadan Scottish name which is a cognate of MacAngus and MacInnes. So would love to know more about the family.
I have also found this site that recounts the life of Angus. http://macinnes.org/dalriada.php |

McInnes |
Looking for information on my wife's family (McInnes). Marriage between John McInnes and Mary MacPherson, both from the Isle of Skye. This was John's second marriage (1. to Mary McKinnon). The marriage between John McInnes and Mary MacPherson was believed to have taken place on the Isle of Skye, or mainland around 1818. Any assistance/help in this would be greatly appreciated, seeing we are on the other side of the world, makes it somewhat difficult to check first hand.
Regards,

looking for my roots |
|
Greetings! I am researching my ancestors. I believe I am from the Roger Magenis/William McGinnis' from the Belfast area, but not entirely sure. I stumbled on this site and love it. I am hoping to visit N Ireland and Scotland in the near future to reconnect with my McGinnis roots. My father was the last of his particular line of McGinnis' (which is a looming line... his father was the youngest of 20) and I want to do what I can to pass on the heritage. Thank you! |

Historian interested in early Scotland |
|
Earliest records indicate that my Grandmother, born Grace McGinnis, is descended from Clan Mc Innes. The connection is through a nun at St. Stevens Abbey in Dublin. She is listed as of the name of MacInnes, "having three brothers of the name of... McGinnis". As near as we can determine the brothers and their sister fled some some sort of legal trouble in Scotland in the early 1800s and stopped in Dublin. The brothers dropped their sister at the convent in Stevens and changed their names to McGinnis (a common Irish name) and emmigrated to The US. One of the brothers settled in Pennsylvania and his grand daughter or possibly great granddaughter was Grace McGinnis. I am a historian interested in the Pictish culture in 4th/5th century Scotland. I have done research on the Antonine Wall in Straithclyde and am interested in the fifth century Whithorn mission of St. Ninian and the early settlement on Iona. Also interested in early Christian activity in and around present day Dunkeld. |

Jonathan MacInnes Uncle to Johan/Joan MacInnes Sculamus/Breakish Isle of Skye. |
. I am the eldest Grand-child of Joan MacSween (nee Johan/Joan MacInnes). On the day I was Christened on Skye, I've come across info. stating my Gran's father was an Alexander MacInnes too though not recorded in S.R.B . Recently I met with Professor Norman MacDonald, author of recently published new book; 'The Great Book of Skye'. In it, my Gran is mentioned as having saved several Traditional Gaelic songs from the Breakish area that are sung world wide, particularly in Nova Scotia. I have been working on my Gran's genealogy for about 3 years now in spare time, & will appreciate any 'snippet' of information about this MacInnes Family known. The croft & house(s) of No. 1 Sculamus I've presently traced back to 1755, & it & the croft presently remain owned by descendants of Johan.

Jonathan MacInnes Uncle to Johan/Joan MacInnes Sculamus/Breakish Isle of Skye. |
I'm seeking information on Jonathan MacInnes who -emigrated to New Zealand - early 1900's. He was the eldest son of Alexander & Jane (nee MacKinnon) who were married on 29/1/1863 Broadford Strath. He was born on 28/1/1865 at No.1 Sculamus the family home. The other brothers were Alexander, Angus, John & James. He had 4 sisters; Mary, Flora, Margaret (Maggie) & Marion. All born there too. I know D.O.D. for most & what they were doing via Census records bar Jonathan & Angus in particular. Alexander was Head of house in 1901 & '11. Marion, who worked in the Ayrshire area of Scotland as a Domestic/Cook/Housekeeper via same Census years, gave birth to Johan/Joan MacInnes on 24/3/1907 (illegitimate) at the above house too. Sadly Marion died there of TB on 6/10/1913, her mother Jane still alive at this time. John died in the Broadford Schoolhouse on 27/6/1951 as Joan was a teacher at this School, & John MacSween her husband, the Headmaster. James had emigrated to N.Y. in 1923, closely followed by another niece Maggie, illegitimate daughter of Flora. He was personal Valet to Sir Benjamin Sumner Welles & latterly worked for a Sir Charles Hay; ( can't find any present info. on him bar, could this latter be an alias of Sir Charlie Chaplin as I remember him stopping outside the Skye home ?1968/69 with his wife Oona, & giving me a lollypop?). James died on 1/9/1969 in N.Y. None of the brothers are known to have married. I am the eldest Grand-child of Joan MacSween (nee Johan/Joan MacInnes).

Mothers maiden name is McInnes. Great grandfather James King MacInnes of Glasgow dropped the "a" when he came over to US at Ellis Island around 1921
Excited to see the site. Very close to my McInnes family.
I guess I'm a close to being scotch as I can be without being from there directly with my two family names
Stewart of course on fathers side but don't know much on it. I will have to dig on that side
Glad to see the site.

Hello from the West of Canada |
Hello everyone,
I just stumbled across this page after typing in my middle name MacInnes. I know a little about my family history and spent a year living in Scotland. However, I would like to learn more about where my ancestors came from and how they came to Canada. So I thought I would join the community.
I was named after my grandmother who was Isabelle MacInnes and she Married my grandfather George Payne. My parents decided to give me her name as my mother is French (hence Isabelle) and they loved the idea of using MacInnes as my middle name.
I know my family has been in Canada for a long time and can even trace our heritage to those living in the USA before the ware of independence.
Anyway that is enough for now.

Greetings Family |
Today at 5:09 AM
The family story goes something like this: Angus McInnes (sp?), my grandfather married Gertrude Schroller, McInnes (sp?), then Baumgartner, in Portland, Oregon. I am told Angus for a time worked in a logging camp at the Bull Run Water Shed in Oregon. I am told he was killed due to a fall down a ships hold in Tacoma, Washington circa Nov. 1926, when my father Donald Bruce MacInnis, Dec. 26, 1924 - Mar. 12, 1987 was nearly 2 years of age. Grandmother, legend has it, changed spelling of her only child's surname in an effort make Donald sound more Scottish. Which is not entirely clear for granny was undoubtedly German. Dad married my mother Alma Jean Conlon (indecently granny on mom's side had more German ancestry than anything else, but very much played up the Irish stuff) in Jun. 1952, bearing four children. Jeffrey Donald, Conlyn Marie, Shawn Maureen, and Kevin Bruce - MacInnis. There are four children from us kids, One alive but unknown, Donovan, and Kelly MacInnis along with Carrie Sanchez-Vanover. It is not known where Angus hailed from or if he had siblings or unknown children bastard or otherwise.
Dad was an enthusiastic and highly skilled archer, had a disdain for alcohol, and profound respect for authority. Well, lol, he was damn good with a bow. I can still hear him rant about what body parts he would enjoy to paint blue, and which leader of a country adjacent Scotland he'd relish ta' show'em to. Dear old dad.
Thank You,

Hello Barbra,
I'm actually in Edinburgh, Scotland, at this very moment! Your grandmother Christina (I'm wondering if Christian) was the sister of my grandfather, John "Red" MacInnis. I met her for the first time when I was sixteen; she came to my father's funeral in Douglas, MA. I've done a lot of family research, but because of many "tall tales," it's hard to know for certain where we come from, but I do have some facts for you. Our great-grandmother Margaret MacInnis was born Margaret MacDonald on Christmas Island, Cape Breton. Our great-grandfather, Neil Duncan, is the slippery one, and I'd prefer to share his story with you in a private email. I have left my email for you here and would be happy to be in touch with you. I have a sister named Jessica, a paternal uncle named Michael, and a daughter named Lila Rose MacInnis-Baumert.
Warm regards to you,
Margaret MacInnis

McGinnis/McKinnis |
Hello all fellow clanmates!
I have recently begun doing the family genealogy. I have traced my father's name back to Thomas McGinnis (McGuinness) who imigrated from Ballinasloe Ireland to California.
Then I noticed a McKinnis line through my mother's side and got that traced back to Charles McKinnis who came from Bona Bornia, Scotland where that line ends. Charles McKinnis fought with the British in the French & Indian war.
It's pretty fun find where my ancestors came from. |

McInnes in Ontario, Canada |
McInnes Family Review
I was a member of the Clan McInnes years ago. Recent records allowed me to make a little more genealogy progress. My great-grandfather Thomas McInnes 1850-1937 shows up in Victoria County, Ontario, Canada from 1885-1888 with the birth of some of his children. He married Isabella McGillivray in 1875 and I now discovered there was a large group of McInnes and McGillivray Scottish settlers in Victoria County, Ontario. There are 26 McInnes and 35 McGillivray names in Victoria County cemeteries http://ocfa.islandnet.com/
The parents of my Thomas McInnes appear to be John MacInnes & Mary Clapperton.
The quest continues. |

Greetings and Hello |
|
I am really glad to say hello to you all. I know whiting isn't very Scottish, but a short explanation should suffice. My Grand father fled the UK in 1924 after getting involved with some Irish folks. When he got to America he adopted the last name of his best friend. My grandfathers name was Charles Edward MacInnes... |

Wow, FINALLY found this after tracing ancestors for a while. |
|
Glad to finally have found this. This is awesome lol. Scrolled down a bit, didn't see anybody else with "McMasters" on here, dang! Lol. Just sent my Req to the FB MacInnes Clan. :) btw can anybody tell me the difference in MacInnes vs McMasters? Or is it just the name change over the years? New to genealogy, so not sure. Thanks! :) |

Inverness Cape Breton MacInnis Family |
I'm a rookie genealogist in the process of tracing my Mother's family. Her name is Johnina MacInnis ( 1915 - 2003 ) daughter of Alexander MacInnis (1891-1953) and Jessica Ann Rankin (1889 - ? ). Johnina was born in Inverness, Alexander in Cape Mabou , Jessica in Broad Cove Banks all of which are on Cape Breton Island, N.S.
Unfortunately I'm stalled at my 2nd Great Grandfather, James MacInnis (abt 1805 - ? ) husband of Catherine (Katie) MacDougall ( abt 1815 - ? ).
If anyone reading this who can be of help either on the MacInnis or the Rankin side, will be much appreciated.
Emails welcomed ! |

Hi Everyone:) |
|
Just wanted to say "Hi" to all the MacInnes' out there.I am very proud to be one of them .My ancestry goes back to Rory Saor McInnes(myGGGGgrandfather) from Barra,Scotland.His sons(Michael,Neil(CastleBay),Donald(Benacadie) &Rory(Iona))and his daughter(Sarah) came to Canada in (abt.)1817.I thought I would let everyone interested know about a book called "The MacKenzies History of Christmas Island Parrish" written by Archibald J. MacKenzie.It tells of alot of Mc/MacInnes'(pg.57),lists spouses and children.It tells what areas that they lived.It is also great for those who want to learn about a MacInnes connection.For me,it listed right up to my grandfather.There is also another book-"Mabou Pioneers" by A.D. MacDonald that lists McInnes' from Mabou Ridge and West Lake Ainslie.I hope some searchers find a few answers with this info.Happy Hunting!Good Health and Good Spirits to all! Joslyn |

Hello from Ottawa, Ontario |
|
Hi, I'm really enjoying your website, I'm planning a trip to Scotland in the next couple of years to explore and visit our historical roots. My family is from Nova Scotia but I don't know any more than that at this time. My father has Alzheimers and unfortunately it may be too late to gather any accurate information from him. |

A MacKinnon Welcome from Oklahoma |
Greetings from Oklahoma!! I am just now finding your website, looks very nice. I would like to intoduce myself. I am Byron Jones from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, and am a member of Clan MacKinnon and the United Scottish Clans of Oklahoma (www.uscoscots.org). I have been the Oklahoma Commissioner for Clan MacKinnon since 2008 and would like to invite all MacInneses in the Oklahoma area to stop by and say, "Hello" at the USCO Iron Thistle Scottish Games & Feastival held the 3rd weekend of April in Yukon, Oklahoma. Also, I am currently working on my four grandparent family genealogies, and some time ago, I came across some ancestors who were actually MacInnis in my Love Family line. Since it appears that I have MacInnes in addition to MacKinnon and MacLaine, I would very much like to honour all these clans in whatever way possible.
I would greatly appreciate hearing from someone within the Clan MacInnes whenever it is convenient.
Respectfully,
Byron Jones |

Hello |
Hi,I do not know much of my past other than my grandfather moved to a place called Sunnybrae Nova Scotia. Not sure if he moved there from Cape Breton Nova Scotia or Scotland.His name was John MacInnis and he married Elsie MacDonald and one of his sons is Russell MacInnis (my father) I guess I`m just hoping someone might read this and it rings a bell.
Thanks

? Stables Family Attached to MacInnes Tartan |
Just found an old e-mail from my cousin, and she said, according to one of the old tartan books, STABLES is attached to MacInnes ( Angus) but she didn't know if all of the Stables in Scotland are related. We do have Forsyths in the Family. My Great Grandmother was an illegitimate child by a James Forsyth.
I have never been able to find, after looking many times over the years for a Tartan from my STABLES heritage.
Thank you, Judy Anderson nee Stables |

Family History |
|
The Angus name (Aonghais) is very ancient. I don't know where the Anguses came from in Scotland originally. The only Angus ancestor I can find is a John Angus, my great, great, grandfather, who was born around 1800 and emigrated to the United States in 1929 with a wife and two children. They emmigrated from Grenoch although I imagine the Angus family originally came from somewhere else. Does anyone know? |

Help! WHO AM I AND WHERE DID I COME FROM? |
aboutI don't know much about where my origins are because no one in our family got along to well and keeping in touch wasn't their strongest features what's this done in htlm? Anyway, Grampa's name was Daniel MacInnis, his son, my dad is Alan Niel MacInnis, he died 2 yrs ago at 78. Me{his daughter} I'm Anne E MacInnis and my 2 sons are Daniel and Nicholas MacInnis. My granddad told me his people lived in Nova scotia and trickled down first 2 new hamshire then Beverly MA. Where my dad grew up. I tried doing the tree thing, but After my grandad, I just did not know much about him except that he grew up in a farm in NewHamshire. So that's my short story Maybe you know more of a way I could track down my heritage. Thanx, this is an ill sight, and I thought MacInnis were extint. I wonder if I'm related to any of these people, except I see they don't spell theyre name the same way, which makes me believe that I got lost some where down the line  Anyway thanx for listening. Oh btw, my name is Hughes now. Can't afford a divorce Anne MacInnis |
