Hello again,
The Neil and Flora McTaggart you mention from Dalclachan, Cambelltown are most likely my ancestors. My great great grandfather Neil McTaggart was born in 1804 in Campbeltown, the son of Duncan McTaggart and Charlotte McNeil. The information I have indicates that Charlotte was born "about 1777" and Duncan "about 1776" in Dalclachan, Campbeltown.
The children of Duncan and Charlotte were Donald, Christian, Neil (apparently died as infant), Neil, Catherine and Flora. Taking into consideration the naming customs, Neil (the third son) might have been named after Duncan's father) and Flora (the third daughter) after Duncan's mother--hence Neil and Flora, born in the mid-1770s. Neil, Duncan, Alexander, Donald, Robert are all common names in my ancestral line.
Do you have additional information from the mid-1770s or earlier?
