My Great Great Grandmother moved from Islay to Inverfarigaig in 1856. I wonder what she did between then and Christmas Eve 1868, when she married Donald McKenzie, a Journeyman Blacksmith in Inverness.
Hi Liz,
Sorry unfortunately we do not research genealogy in the area as it is very time consuming we are more involved with place names of the area. Inverness the largest local town has an archive centre incorporating a family history centre which have employed genealogists, one of them Ann Fraser comes from Dores and may be able to help you but there will be a charge involved as she is employed by the Archive centre.

The Highland Family History society based in Inverness may be able to help, see contact email address

You may be able to pick up some information from 1861 Census returns or her Marriage certificate concerning her occupation
