    From Finch Booklet by A Empey 2001 (page 12) (Sent by Margaret Cameron)

    From Margaret Cameron, Box 621, Long Sault, Ontario KOC 1PO
    "Angus MacMillan of Callich who first settled on Lot 20, Conc. 1, FinchTownship, then had a sawmill on Lot 14, Conc. 3, Finch Township (orig.owned by Allan Glenpean). Angus had five daughters who marriedMacMillans! "

    "John MacMillan of Callich (my gtgtgt), his brother Alexander (Lot 16-2Finch from whom Cassie descends) and their cousin, Angus (1766-1841 -tombstone) my gtgtgt, are listed under the 'Callich' segment of "ByegoneLochaber". "

    "My Callich MacMillans are a younger branch of the Glenpean family(Glenpean and Callich are sites at Loch Arkaig near Fort William inScotland.), and John, my gtgtgt, Alexander, and Angus, my gtgtgt, alldescend from William 4th of Murlaggan a Lochaber MacMillan Chief. (c1598)"

    "Angus of Callich's brother, Donald, is buried in Kilmallie graveyardnear Ft. William Scotland, d. c 1807 - Tacksman of Callich - ontombstone). He is also mentioned in Byegone Lochaber by SomerledMacMillan."

    Angus MacMillan of Callich(my gtgtgt), Lot 20-1, Finch was a cousin toJohn MacMillan(my gtgtgt) Lot 22-1 Finch, and his brother, AlexanderMacMillan, Lot 16-2 Finch. Angus of Callich(my gtgtgt) also owned Lot 14,Conc. 3 Finch (orig. owned by Allan Glenpean< my gtgtgtgt)and had asawmill, along with his son, Alexander.
    "Angus MacMillan of Callich and his son Alexander bought Lot 22-1 Finch,and, as well, Angus of Callich owned land on the third concession ofFinch which he had bought from the Glenpean family(i.e. - Lot 14-3 wherehe operated a sawmill, etc.)."

    Because of the similarity of names the local gen./ authors have had a'hard' time sorting out these families. "

    Some of the information is also from a list produced by A MacMillan(Based on family papers). From Margaret Cameron, Box 621, Long Sault,Ontario KOC 1PO

    "Angus of Callich had five daughters who married MacMillans. Thefollowing is a list of his children from family papers(AK, JG. etc.)

    a) Mary (b 1794 Achnacarry, Scotland) married Duncan Ban MacMillan(b.Glennevis 1783, d. 1861 Finch Lot 23-3). They were my gtgt grandparents,through their daughter, Margaret b. 1832, who married Joseph R.Sutherland, b. St. Raphaels Mar. 1822, d. 1876, settled Lot 38, Conc. 5,Roxborough, parents of my grandmother, Catharine Sutherland Cameron).
    b) Marjory married to Hugh (Lochiel/Corriebuie) MacMillan
    c) Marion married Hugh(Ewen)(Cnoc/Kronk) MacMillan(in some family papersI have him stated as 'John the 'kronk' MacMillan(meaning on the hill).
    c) Catharine married Alex (Lochiel/Corriebuie) MacMillan
    d) Jane(?) m. MacMillan
    e) Margaret married Duncan Grant
    f) Katie(Kateline?) married John MacLean(our g grandfather---from papersby A.K. MacMillan( son of Johnny John MacMIllan(Lot 20-3 Finch) who hadthe store in Finch Village )
    g)** JOHN MACMILLAN married daughter of Donald Cameron(Clunes) andNancy(Ann) Cameron(Glenloy)[ who settled on Lot 21-4 Finch(CameronSchool)].
    (In reference to the first name of John MacMillan's wife, I lost myfather's papers wherein the names of the 'two daughters' who marriedMacMillans were listed, so I am not sure if John's wife was Mary/orCatharine...m cameron)
    h) Alexander
    i) Ewen

    The above listing of the children of Angus MacMillan of Callich was takenfrom family notes.

    The one daughter(and I think two of the daughters) married in to the'Kronk' family (John of/or Hugh of) MacMillans and I think the MacRaefamly which lived just to the west end of the Village of Avonmoredescended from this line(from Angus of Callich).. "
