James Mcdonald immigrated Scotland to Canada 1777
I've been tracing back my ancestry most recently through land petitions in Ontario.James Mcdonald migrated to Canada about 1777. I believe he married Catherine Smith, daughter of Sgt John Smith KRRNY, and had several children.One of which was Daniel or Donald.
The surname is spelled Mcdonald, MacDonell, etc as I'm sure you've encounter before.
Any info or ideas where to research would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Bob
