John McDonald b. c1845 lived W PA
John McDonald born circa 1845 in PA; married about 1866 to my 2nd great-grandmother, Susanna/Susan A. Barrickman.Susan was born 9 Jun 1846, East Brady, Armstrong Co., PA, the daughter of James and Elizabeth (Snyder) Barrickman.
Family story is that John and Susan McDonald divorced.They had 2 sons, Richard J. McDonald and Charles A. McDonald.
Susan remarried to Francis/Frank Marion Fritz about 1872.Frank Fritz raised Richard "Dick" and Charles.Frank and Susan Fritz lived in Armstrong Co., PA, until about mid 1870s and settled in Butler, Butler Co., PA, where they died.
I would like to know what happened to my grandmother's half-brothers, John and Charles McDonald.I never could find them in census records.Family story is they may have died when they were 50ish.
What happened to John McDonald?
Thanks,
Bev
