Margaret Grant died before 1840 and John married again,this time to Helen Miller,daughter of George Miller and Louisa Mackay.John and Helen had a large family(about 10 i think) Helen died in 1865 at Egnal (??)
In the census of 1871 Louisa Mackay is listed as head of family with 3 grandchildren,Jessie 18 John 14 and Helen 12. Loiusa was born in the parish of Tongue and her parents where John Mackay and Margaret Mackay.
Hope someone can help fill in the gaps.
