John, Walter, William and Hugh all lived in Huron County Michigan, sometimes it says Tuscola county as the residence is on the border of the counties.
Hugh was kicked in the head by a mule and suffered brain damage from the accident. William cared for him afterwards. All of them remained bachelors except for John. I can't find my notes, but I believe there was a sister Mary (Margaret?) that married Lachlan McLachlan (much to the disappointment of her brother John).
