There are photographs of the gravestones of both Captain John MacLean and his father Murdoch MacLean at www.rosscromartyroots.co.uk. Both stones are in the graveyard of the Gaelic Chapel at Cromarty. For some reason the current site does not allow me to quote the full web address of these photos but they can be found by adding h, t, t & p and in front of:

Sadly, we had to disable the ability to add full web addresses when comments were submitted as the admin system was being swamped by hundreds of link spam messages every day promoting Viagra and get-rich-quick schemes. Comment left on 30 July 2008 at 10:17 by Colin
The man in the photograph is my great grandfather. My grandmother was his daughter Jane and her name appears on the gravestone of Robina Gordon Mackenzie and John Maclean that is referred to in the comment left by David Maclean in 2008. I have been to the graveyard of the Gaelic Chapel at Cromarty a couple of times to see the gravestone and even have an image of my Dad (Keith Maclean Masters) standing beside it.

I am currently working on documenting my family history and would like to contact any relatives of Capt John Maclean's family.

I do hope that it is possible for my submission to be passed on to David Maclean?
