Clan McKay/McCaa

[Jock Scot]

And MacKee. I've got a MacKee ancestor from Lochaber.

I hope you don't mind me asking, but, do you know where in Lochaber?

I wish I knew.

All I've heard as a child or seen written about my Highland ancestors (in Canadian and American documents) were the place names Inverness, Lochaber, Skye, Glengarry.

Although place names were mentioned - sometimes in general terms and often with overlapping of more particular places and their respective regions or districts, I've been able to trace some surnames of ancestors with a few of these: Camerons (Inverness), MacLeods and MacKinnons (Skye), MacLennans, MacKees, MacBains, Stewarts, MacDougalls, Urquharts, Stuarts, Kennedys (Lochaber), (MacDonnells and MacDonalds (Invergarry).

They settled Glengarry County, Ontario and then some moved down to found a Scots community in Northern Wisconsin (Chippewa Falls).

The names that you mention above are still about, alive and well in Lochaber, today.
