Looking for proof of Charles McKAY and his ancestors. On her marriage license, Charles' daughter Isabelle "Belle" spelled her last name McCAY. On a Texas census she is listed as E Belle.

Limestone County, Texas, Marriages:
Book A (1873-1876):
R.S. ADKINS & Bell McCAY, B-12

Any leads would be appreciated. I am convinced that Charles never existed.

Well, unless you are descended from Robert Mackay Sr. or one of the other interrelated families I'm not sure how much I or others can help you here.

You might want to try posting your query on the Clan Mackay Society, USA's discussion forum. Being that they are the National Mackay society you may have a bigger chance in running into someone else who also descends from this particular family who may have the info. you're looking for.

Their address is http://www.clanmackayusa.org

Good luck.
