Killichonan (pronounced Kill-ee-hoe-nan) was a community on the North side of Kinloch Rannoch. Today there is a walled graveyard, a few farms, and a power station. 

Many MacGregors used to live there and many are buried there.  I do not yet know if any of them are related to me.

Steps on outside of wall of Killichonan cemetery. This allows people to bypass the locked gate.
Steps on the inside of the wall of Killichonan cemetery - the same stones as protrude on the outside. Note the water bowl for Catholic ritual presumably.

Here are SOME of the graves at Killichonan Cemetery. I did not have time to write any inscriptions down, and only photographed those with MacGregors. The transcriptions are done from my photos. Any corrections and/or additions would be welcomed.
