Biography
Family lore claims Alexander Cameron as the father of Angus Cameron. Tacksman for InverMallie from 1762-1804. The house he built in Invermallie still stands to this day. A tombstone epitaph in the Old Kilmallie Cemetery states that Alexander Cameron died on 24 Dec 1831, aged 95.
Researcher's Notes
We have no OPR/BDM documentation to support this supposition that this is our ancestral Alexander, but include it here to attract possible DNA research links or triggers.
