Children:-  Joseph, Margaret, ( both born Inverness )
John ( born Kirkintilloch ) and Alice.

Would be so pleased to hear from anyone with information on
any member of the above family. Willing to share what little info I do have ...should it be required . regards..." paisleyborn "   

 

Joseph was my Grandfather and died in a tramcar accident in Canada 1928, John was John Andrew MacDonald who married my grandmothers younger sister Sarah McNab MacDonald, They had four children together before Sarah died, John Andrew Remarried Elizabeth lieshman and had another child Duncan who is still alive and lives in Australia, I have no idea what happened to Margaret and  Alice except that Alice  was a witness to John Andrew and Sarah's marriage 26TH March 1897 in Barrhead. One of John Andrew and Sarah's sons James was a major in the Royal artillery and a prisoner of war on the Burma railway, He had four children and who all well and live in Hampshire I have a file of births and marriages of both my fathers MacDonald side and my mother Maxwell side of the family. hope this info is of some help to paislyborn should she decide to come back to roots chat,                   Joemacd
