Hello Gail,
I am researching the MacDonald family for my neighbor/friend.
Here is my run-down - very similar:
James B. MacDonaldb. 10-?-1855 Cornwall Canada-Engl
m. 07-09-1887 Mary M. __
James B. immigrated 1880 thru PA to Wisconsin to Michigan where he raised his family.His father is from Glasgow SCO.I don't know his father's name and if he sailed from there or was born there. James B. had a sister living with him on the 1920 Census.Jennie was age 70 and single - could not read or write or speak English and "Language LC"
Children named:
Maeb. 1888 Hibbing MI
Elizabeth "Bessie"b. 1889 WI
Mary M.b. 1891 Depere WI
Agnes C.b. 1892 Antigo WI
James Archibaldb. 1894 Antigo WI
Francis "Frank" Josephb. 1896 Antigo WI
Peter Edward "Ed"b. 1899 WI
They then appeared in 1900 census in Ontonagon Co MI
If there are any similar names, we should see if there is a connection.If there is a connection, I would like a copy of the picture.I sure would like to find James B.'s father's name.
Janice
