Donald Reid/Catherine McMillan

I was wondering if anyone still living on Kintyre is a descendant of my 2great-grandparents, Donald Reid/Rid and Catherine McMillan who were tenants on Skipness Estate and lived from circa 1790, dying within two weeks of each other in 1847. Their gravestone is marble in granite in Skipness Chapel Cemetery, on the left side of the main path within the cemetery. To date I have found six of their children (of the 11) who have emigrated to Ontario in the 1850's. I am writing from Sarnia, Ontario, and am hoping to be able to determine, definitively, the parents of each of them. Yours in genealogy. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
