Follow up. 

The Lord's daughter (possibly Ellen, Ella?) ran off with the coachman.  The daughter was with child.  The coachman had died.

The story did not include if this couple married or if the child was given the mother's maiden surname or fathers?

I have created a tree for a friend.  Her mother told her of a family member who ran off with the coachman.  The daughter (Ella?) was with child.  However, the coachman had passed.  Married or not, don't know.  This family group was believed to be from Argyle.

This family Duncan McDougal b1828, Scotland m Mary Macdonald, Scotland.  Their children; Duncan, Peter, Catherine, Julia, Mary, Archibald, Archie, Hector, Donald Daniel, Anna, Barbara.

They emigratrated separately to Canada.  One of their sons, Hector was born in Toronto.  The family moved on through Minnesota to Chicago, Cook, Illinois.

Fact or fiction????

Another story, one of the ancestors married an indian princess.

The other side of the family is Amelia Carnes.  Amelia married Hector McDougal/ll
Amelia's parents were:  William Carnes b1835 Canada/Conn & Ella Livingston b 1834 Canada/Conn.
The children of William Carnes & Ella were; Amelia, Eva & Nellie.

I have an Archibald Mcfarlane b 1830, Ire.  He married Margaret McKiernan/Mckernan/Mckerran?
Their children were born in Culfeightrin, County Antrim & Ballycastle, Ireland
John b1855 Culfeightrin m Mary Mcginlay in St Rollox, Glasgow/lived in New Monkland/Occ:  Iron Miner, Foundry Labor, Coal Miner (a son of John b1855 was Patrick b1881 married in Airdrie, Patrick b1881 had a son who was born in Airdrie)
Mary b1858, Ann b1860, James b1862, Archibald b1864, Patrick, b1866, Alexander b1869, Margaret b1871, Sarah b1874, James b1878, Elizabeth b1881.
 I have a well developed tree on Archibald Mcfarlane's b1830 children.  These families lived in Coatbridge, Cleland, Wishaw, Airdrie, Kirkintilloch, Glasgow.  The families emigrated to a beach town in Southern California.  They lived in Redondo Beach, Hermosa, Manhattan.  They worked in the oil refineries on this coastline.

Could be part of this family group.
