Mclaren, Donald - 1805
« on: Tuesday 13 September 16 18:47 BST (UK) »
I am stumped and wonder if anyone can help.   I'm trying to find information on Donald Mclaren, born in Perthshire about 1805.  He married Jane (date and last name unknown).  Their son, Daniel Mclaren, b. abt 1829 in Perthshire, placed this information on his marriage certificate (Janet Gillies, b. 16 March 1831) on 5 October 1858 in Ontario, Canada.

Any information would be MOST welcome,

Thx

Peter

Thanks Romilly.  I will do some more digging to see if this is the "Donald" I'm looking for.
