But we shouldn't forget the thousands of Tiree people who emigrated to the United Kingdom mainland, probably for similar reasons and experiencing the same sadness and feeling of isolation as their cousins who emigrated overseas. Isle of Mull Records A list of of people born in Tiree who appear in censuses or other records in the Isle Of Mull. There were close links between Tiree and Mull, particularly the Ross of Mull, the tongue of land on the south-west of the island leading to Iona. Like Tiree, the Ross of Mull was part of the Duke of Argyll's estate. Tiree people were given rights to an area of peat bog in the Ross of Mull and visited there in summer to cut and dry peat for transport by boat back to Tiree. The list is maintained by Mull Genealogy and the link is provided with their approval.
