McArthur family tree ... Islay to Glasgow
       (b) = birth    (d) = death           dates/names in bold denotes I have details from certificate or records and in most cases copies

I have found from different records, variations in the spelling of names, I have copied the names as shown on that record.
One of the main problems is that if the person registering the event can't read or write, then the the name is spelt rightly or wrongly 
by the registrar...one of the reasons why we have so many variations in the spelling of names
.....grey ... to be confirmed....
