This source of this info is Buchanan Family Genealogy. Please refer to this web site for detailed info on sources. There are several birth and death dates given for John Buchana at this web site.
The John Buchanan who died on 12-Feb-1864 (if that is what 12 ult. means) is very similar to the gravestone "BUCHANAN...John Buchanan died July 11, 1864, Ae. 80. His wife died Jan 11, 1876, Ae. 87. Emigrated from the Isle of Skye in 1803". The other problem is that John appears younger in the 1861 census. (If its the right John.) There is only 1 John Buchanan older than 60 in the 1861 census.
History of Selkirks Settlers, An Excerpt From "Hebridean Pioneers" by Malcolm A. Macqueen
"� in the summer of 1803, eight hundred and three Highland souls, "fearing neither the rage of the ocean, nor the hardships of uncivilized life", bade farewell to friends and country and embarked on the ships Polly, Dykes and Oughton to cross the Western Main � the Polly, which sailed from Portree, arrived in Orwell Bay, Prince Edward Island, on Sunday, August 7th. Her compliment, as Selkirk records in his dairy, was "250 full passengers and nearly 400 souls". All were members or adherents of the Presbyterian church, and all but a few, who bought land near Tyron, settled in Belfast.The Dykes, with Selkirk on board, arrived in Charlottetown two days after the Polly, "the Skye ship", as Selkirk described her in his dairy.
The Oughton arrived on August 27 with forty or fifty families from the Island Uist. These were Roman Catholics. They settled on Selkirk�s land in the vicinity of Three Rivers, or, as the district is known today, Georgetown."
