From information obtained from Bill Lawson (Harris) on 8/4/94:

Neil MacIsaac's parents and birthplace are yet to be pinpointed. He married Mary MacEachin, daughter of Hector, and 3rd cousin of Neil MacEachin, both suspected to be from Stoneybridge, S.Uist. Neil was a crofter with a croft in Drimore, S.Uist from time of marriage thru birth of all children. They were likely poor, but not of the poorest class, since the family stories indicate that they owned a cow(s). This was a sign of the more "affluent" poor, with either sufficient land area or arrangements to graze a cow. They likely lived in a stone croft hut with a thatched roof, perhaps a single room cottage with bunks along the walls for sleeping. Apparently the women harvested kelp to help pay the rent to the Clanranald laird, while the men attended to the farming and any other labor they could scrape up for family subsistence.

The 1841 census showed the family as living in Baleloch, S.Uist. The kelp industry collapsed in 1837, followed by a potato famine in 1846-47. These incidents rendered the crofters too poor to pay the rent; and the landlords went into debt. The landlords believed the only way to get out of debt was to clear the land of crofters (Highland Clearances) and rent the lands to lowland sheep farmers. The ugliest of the Clearances on S.Uist occurred in 1950-52. Those of the poor Gaelic speaking residents who chose not to locate elsewhere in Scotland were forced onto ships and emigrated to the loyal North American Colonies in Canada. Neil and his family emigrated to Bornish, Ontario in 1851.

The family stories indicate that two of Neil MacIsaac's either brothers or uncles got into trouble with English authorities and were deported to Australia. The reasons: They were found to be possession of Catholic Bible(s) in the Gaelic language, and "claymores" (claidheamhmor: a large, two-edged broadsword formerly used by Scottish Highlanders).

"According to the stories of superstition Eoghan a Chin Bhig is still going about in this world. He is allways present when any of the Lochbuie family is in distress. He also very frequently attends funerals of those who belong to that family. He wears his old cloak about him summer and winter, and always carries his trusty sword with him. He is still without his head. He rides a dun horse, the same horse on which he rode to Glen Cainnir, the place in which the battle in which he fell was fought. His horse has no equall in Arabia, or anywhere else. He travels over sea and land with equal ferosity. Ewen does not confine his wanderings to Scotland. He has been frequently in Ireland, Spain, and other countries. We are told that the cause of his restlessness is that "he fell fasting, his cross and worthless wife having given him no breakfast on the morning on which he left home for Glen Cainnir""

records kept St. George's church, Vancouver, Rev. Jackson.

She also worked as a dental assistant and office assistant for a doctor.

Loved to garden. A very good mother. Served as a Brown Owl and in other capacities in the Girl Guide movement.

Became very ill in her 50's and almost died from malnutrition due to persistent diarrhoea. Diagnosed just in time as having gluten intolerance. Interestingly had been raised as a vegetarian until her 20's. Has thrived on a gluten-free
diet. Moved to Kelowna to be near Adrienne around 1990. Didn't like being left alone while Darrell and Adrienne wintered in the south, but was very uncomplaining.

Lockwood, Iris (I7939)
 
43 Baptized by John Muir, minister of Yester. Birth registered Aug. 12, 1904 by Robert Henderson, registrar.

James was born with a watering eye which plagued him all his life. Took piano lessons in Scotland from a very early age. Was given the brass inkwell as a gift from Lady Kinloch for playing in church. He, his mother Lizzie, his sister,
Ella and his uncle Tom Bertram sailed to Montreal from Glasgow aboard the Allan Royal Mail Steamer, "Corsican", on May 8, 1915. James and his uncle Tom performed aboard ship, James on piano and Tom on cello. His father, Andrew, had come earlier
to B.C. to establish a home for the family. He worked for the Agassiz Agricultural Experimental farm and then moved to an estate at Elk Lake on Vancouver Island. Andrew managed the estate. The family lived on the Island for a while. Then
Andrew got a job with the Vancouver Parks Board and they moved to Vancouver.

James was a quiet, reserved, cultured, intelligent, nice man and a good father. Not a sportsman.

Started work at a bank but quit. Then went to B.C.Electric. Took a leave-of-absence from the B.C. Electric and travelled as a concert pianist on the Orpheum circuit for 6-8 months but did not like it.

See contract between Allan Rogers, #4 Hill Court, Malba, Long Island and JMT, Oct. 2, 1926. JMT agreed to act as pianist for the vaudeville act known as "Allan Rogers" at $100 /week.

Returned to B.C. Electric and stayed. He met Iris whom he was asked to accompany on the piano while she sang at an afternoon soiree at J.D.A. Tripp's, his piano teacher.

Worked for 50 years for the B.C. Electric Co. (later B.C. Hydro) and retired as Cashier Dept. Mgr. Probably should have been an electrical engineer.

Belonged for years to the Vancouver Electric Club and acquired a life membership as an 'electron' Nov. 28, 1969.

Suffered since youth with corneal ulceration in one eye which was almost blind. Several attempts at corneal transplant failed. 6 weeks in bed in the dark was the treatment for a flare-up of the ulcer until around 1950. Also suffered from
recurrent inguinal hernias, each requiring surgery. Would not stop smoking cigarettes and died of heart failure.

Ashes buried with his parents and sister, Ella. Name engraved on side of parents' stone and quite illegiable - filled with moss. Therefore, when Iris died, a new stone with both their names was put in place. Iris' ashes were scattered.
