Hello Gary
Thanks to your ANESFHS journal article I found your website. I can't tell you how exciting it was to discover a website devoted to the Allanachs.
I'm still working my way through it but at last I have an answer as to where James Paull Allanach disappeared to, more on slavery, the descriptions of rural life and other sources that I haven't seen before. Congratulations!
As the G-G Grandson of John Allanach 1814-80 I have been collecting Allanach information for a long time and I think that I have much information which could help you. For example I could give you more information on John Allanach 1814-80, Elijah 1887-1955, Jean born 1780 and Margaret born 1775. I could also lay out the colourful history of John 1817-78, provide an alternative theory as to the parents of Duncan 1812-94 and if you are interested provide a list of places which housed Allanachs with grid references where known.
Let me know if I can help in any way.
Best wishes for your endeavour
David
