Hi Rory, nice to come across your site.
Can you tell me what are the latest census details available on Achitlibuie ?. My grandmother was born there and had a sister called Lillium (MacLeod). Or perhaps you could direct me to someone who could put me on the right path.
Kind regards. John McCulloch on the Island of Tasmania.

John,
Thanks for the visit. I am by no means an expert on census returns and family history but did make a posting on some on my own family’s roots in Achiltibuie here https://achiltibuiecottages.wordpress.com/2008/04/27/the-start-of-some-family-history/ the links might give you some help or other visitors might be able to give further information.
Rory.

Dear Rory,
thank you so much for your pages!
I visited Scotland several times and each time I fell in love with a different corner of that wonderful country. But when I did a day’s trip through the Highlands starting from Ullapool, I lost my heart there. I had the best Bed&Breakfast at Ullapool (in my opinion) and they told me where to go – so I came to Achiltibuie.
Funny enough, I knew its name from a weekly “letter” in a big German weekly newspaper, “Die Zeit”, where it was always described as the most wonderful place.
That’s right. 🙂
All the best!

Thanks for your comment. We get visitors from across Europe and America renting Greenhill and, for somewhere as remote as Achiltibuie, it is amazing how many different nationalities arrive there.
