I do not believe our John H's are the same person.No doubt there is some connection, though.My great grandfather was Willliam H McDonald (1819-1888) m Rebecca Grimes (1824- 1870/75 not sure of death date).Their children:Eli A. b 1841, Mary S. b 1842 m Bill Cole, Amanda E. (Minda) b 1845 m Irwin McCasland, Frances T. b 1847 m Jim Queen, William J "Billy" b 1849, Margaret "Peggy" b 1851 m unknown Wilson, Martha A. b 1853, Lucy b 1855 m unknown Vandiver, Rebecca b 1858, Sarah Alice "Susie" b1860 d 1919 m Henry Prince, John H. b 1863, James Monroe (my grandfather) b 1865 d 1915 m Nancy Carolyn Carter, Pheobe C. b 1876 m J. F. Dedrick, Isaac N. b 1878, and Thomas "Tom" b 1880.Please check in the bible you mentioned to see if any of these names are listed.I wonder if your Daniel M. and my William H. could have been brothers or maybe cousins....they are only about 15 years apart in age---so they are likely to be in the same generation. I printed out your response and will keep it in my files.THANK your for your response even if we don't prove a connection, I'm just almost positive we have one.THANKS again.My email is [email protected] send me any info you have.
