Hi Carmen:
Solving the McDaniel mystery, think that is a want, of almost,all of us.These McDonald/McDaniels sure had a thing for the names Wm., Archibald and Henry.I see those names in so many messages, sometimes think we're all looking for the same people.
I can't find anything before 1870 Hopkins Co., Tx. on my GGF Benj. Franklin McDonald, birthplace, supposedly Tenn. 1840.Have no idea which county and can't find him on a census index anywhere at the correct age.
I'm going crazy looking for him and his wife,
Elizabeth Ann Scarborough. At least I've had some suggestionswho her parents could have been, no proof, naturally.
We supposedly have Indian connection too, not sure which ggm it was. My mom remebered, only that one of her gms was part Indian and looked it.
That's my tale of woe.Good luck with yourMcDs. Think mine were aliens from outer space.
