93105: Donald Morrison

Domhnall Sheòrais

Donald (1794-1882) was the son of George Morrison and Isabella Macmillan. There is some suggestion that the family may have lived in Gress Tack, but this is not certain.

In 1820 Donald's name appears on the subtenant list of Old South Tolsta Tack. He married Mary Graham and in 1830, during the croft re-lotting, the family obtained 19 Old North Tolsta. Donald and Mary had eight children.

In 1853 Old North Tolsta was cleared to make way for Tolsta Farm and in 1854 the family obtained 46 North Tolsta as a newly lotted croft.

Donald was widowed in 1880.
