Old travel Blog photograph of Eaval, the highest hill on North Uist, Outer Hebrides, Scotland. North Uist is the tenth largest Scottish island. North Uist was hit hard during the Highland Clearances, and there was large scale emigration from the island to Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, Canada. North Uist surnames affected during the clearances were the MacAulay, Morrison, MacCodrum, MacCuish, and MacDonald. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
