Hello Vicki,

Looking at Anne's info from Fasti, it appears that Alexander Fraser was
transferred to Torosay after serving at Coll. There may well be a more
complete biography for him in Fasti at that location. Often these
biographies will include parents, children, birthplace, etc but be certain
to follow up with original records as I have found errors in the details.

Children of Alexander FRASER & Isabella McLEAN that I could see in the IGI
parish register extractions include:
Margareta Anna 08 APR 1789 Tyree, Argyll, Scotland
Maria 03 AUG 1790 Tyree, Argyll, Scotland
Bella 30 SEP 1791 Tyree, Argyll, Scotland

I am not really good at Mull geography, but I believe Coll was part of
Tyree parish at that time. There are also some patron entries including an
Alexander in 1787. You can order the microfilm of these parish registers
at your Family History Center and see what extra information is included in
the actual records. The IGI is just an index.

Hi Everyone -
I am new to the list and have spent the last couple of days reading most of
the prior posts. My great great great grandfather was Rev. Alexander
Fraser
b. 1758, Presbyterian minister of Mull, married Isabela MacLean.
