  General Notes:

In a letter from Reverend Mr Donald Carmichael (1781-1854) to his great-nephew also named Donald (1833-1902) we read:

"St Mary's College, Blairs, 8 February 1847.

Dear Nephew, I duly received your favour of the 2nd January and delayed answering, until I had the happy news to communicate, that you have got another Brother - your Mother was safely delivered this morning of a fine stout boy, who in Baptism this afternoon, received the name of his father, Grand and Great Grand Father [Archibald]. Your dear Mother is as well as could be expected - James is not yet disposed to yield unto him his cradle - your father and all the family are in good health. You will probably have heard of the Death of your Grand Uncle Duncan - It happened at Buckie in Novr. Auntie and the Doctor are well, and anxious that you should write her a letter, to show your
progress in writing and how you keep the knowledge of your own Language - on this you will be the better of a lesson from me before
I conclude."


Archibald Carmichael was recorded as an oatmeal miller in the death certificate of his son Archibald in 1861. ^{6 13 14}

Archibald married Margaret McLAREN on 8 March 1765 in Lethendy and Kinloch parish, Perthshire, Scotland.¹ (Margaret McLAREN was born about 1745.)
