Family History Beginners Board / Re: Lady Munro’s Christmas gift of The Tale of Timmy Tiptoes to David Macdonald 1926

This could be the family.

Ronald R M MacDonald was Ronald Ross Munro MacDonald.  The article mentions children David and Rosemary and the family were formerly of Moulinard, Tain.

Quote from: kivo on Monday 03 June 24 22:37 BST (UK)
Mary Thursfield died 7th May 1842 from 'exhaustion from previous disease'.

Samuel was born third quarter of 1843 and his grandmother's maiden name put down.

Strange.

I have a birth in my family tree where the child's grandmother's maiden name was recorded.  I think the mother of the child was asked "mother's maiden name?" and she misunderstood the question and gave her own mother's maiden name rather than her own maiden name.
