Hello Lismore,

 
Thought you might be interested in my Keith family:
 
Jean Keith (McKeith) married John McKenzie in 1813
 
Jean Keith was the daughter of Duncan Keith (McKeith) and Mary Stewart from Lismore.
 
They lived and died at Shenevaille in Ardchattan.  Their son, Kenneth McKenzie became my gt-grandfather.
 
I emigrated to Tasmania with my family in 1952, but have been researching my McKenzie side with very good results.
 
Good luck with your Lismore site.
 
regards,
Mary from Tasmania.
