CAMPBELL in Dornoch/Rogart


I am researching Donald Campbell (son of John Cambpell and Lilly Munro, Rogart) and Christina Ross (daughter of Aeneas Ross and Barbara Macleod) who married in Dornoch, March 1827. Their children were:
John, born April 1827, Dornoch;
James, born February 1829, Dornoch
Barbara, born May 1831, Dornoch (married John Matheson 1862, Dornoch)
Mary, born 1833, Dornoch
Angus Fraser, born June 1835, Dornoch, emigrated to New Zealand - photograph on left.
Aeneas, born September 1837, Dornoch, died September 1863, a.24, Benin.
Donald, born 1840, Dornoch
Janet, born 1842, Dornoch
Lilias, born September 1844, Dornoch (married Murdoch Ross, 1871)
Christina, born 1848, Dornoch, (m.1 George Stein, 1872; m.2 Robert Moffat, 1896).
If anyone is connected to any of these families I would be most interested in them. I have been searching for information on Aeneas who died in Benin to no avail. Also, we believe that at least one of the family emigrated to Australia but I don't know who. Angus Fraser Campbell was my husband's grandfather, and his son Aeneas (my husband's father) was named for Angus' brother who died.
Anyone connected?
Many thanks.
