What caught my eye was your reference to Jannett McDonald. I also noted your last name is now Roy. I don't have any children listed for Alexander, but I am missing several pages where that information might be. I was only passed information applicable to my direct line [through Ewen Mor McDonald]. If you are descended from Alexander, you will probably have to get access to the book I listed below on Rawdon. My g-g-g-g grandfather was John Og McDonald (Iain Og Maceoghain -Old John) of the Royal 84th Emigrant Highland Regiment of Nova Scotia. he came to America from Glen Urquhart in 1775 along with 4 sons, Duncan, James, Ewen Mor, & Alexander, and probably unmentioned daughters]. They were paid passengers on the Ship Glasgow as it arrived in NY harbor in 1775 and were turned North by the Royal Navy because hostilities {American revolution] had erupted. They all joined [were impressed into] the 84th and served about 8 yrs. After the war they were all given land grants along the East River, Pictou County, NS. I was looking at the dates you had for Jannett and they don't quite mesh (1722-), but the other information matches so I thought I would pass this along for your review. please let me know if it is applicable. Regards Ben MacDonald Glendale, AZ ============================================= John's first wife to whom he had 4 children was Jannett - Scotland(?). His second wife to whom he had 4 children was Margaret Grant - Scotland The information is published in a book written in 1989 by John Victor Duncanson called Rawdon and Douglas: Two Loyalist Townships in Nova Scotia Duncanson, John Victor (1918-1999): § Born in Windsor, Duncanson graduated from Queen's and after being in the military service during WWII held the position as a Labour Relations officer in Alberta, New Brunswick, Ontario and Quebec. Duncanson has won a number of awards because of his contributions to the heritage of Nova Scotia. Falmouth - A New England Township in Nova Scotia (1965) (Belleville: Mika, 1990). § Contains genealogical material. Newport, Nova Scotia: A Rhode Island Township (1989) (Belleville: Mika, 1985). § Contains genealogical material; Map reconstructing the Hallyburton survey, 1775, is tipped in at the back with the names of all the grantees thereon. Rawdon and Douglas: Two Loyalist Townships in Nova Scotia (1989) (Belleville: Mika, 1989). § Contains genealogical material. It contains a genealogical breakdown of John Og McDonald in the East River. This information is very detailed and shows Duncan was the son of John Og McDonald & Jannett (McDonald (?) John the son of Duncan McDonald & Catherine Fraser John Roy was the son of John McDonald & Jane Fraser John (Roy) McDonald had 4 daughters Ina, Jenny, Pearl & Laura. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ >From an "electronic book on Nova Scotia History" In 1784, a settlement of disbanded soldiers was made further up the river. They came to Pictou at the close of the American War. They were, originally, from the Highlands of Scotland. The first who came was James Fraser, Big James, who in company with Donald McKay, elder, settled on the intervale a little below where St. Paul's Church now stands. He and fifteen others took up a tract of over three thousand acres, extending up to Samuel Cameron's on the east side of the river, and to James Fraser's, Culloden, on the west side. They were a sober and industrious class of people and endured great hardship. But they endured it with characteristic Scottish tenacity and in the belief that the future had much in store for them. A few years rolled by and they had made homes for their families and laid the foundations for a God-fearing and prosperous community. To ponder over the hazards and hardships they faced with such optimistic heroism, is but to admire and pay them a justly earned tribute. The names of these first settlers were: Donald Cameron, his brothers Samuel and Finlay, Alexander Cameron, Robert Clark, Peter Grant, first elder in the settlement, James McDonald, Hugh McDonald on the east side of the river. James Fraser, Duncan McDonald, John McDonald, brother of James, John Chisholm, drowned at the Narrows with Finlay Cameron, John McDonald, 2d, John Chisholm, Jr. John McDonald was born at Glen Urquhart, Scotland and belonged to the Glencoe McDonalds. At the time of the Glencoe Massacre, 1692, one of the McDonalds fled to Glen Urquhart and settled there. John McDonald was a grandson or great grandson of that man. It is said he was a also veteran of Culloden. He was about eight years in the Royal Highland Emigrant Regiment, and three of his sons fought with him in the Revolutionary War on the Loyalists' side. He was married twice. By his first wife Jannett, he had Duncan, Alexander, Mary and Christy. By his second wife, Margaret Grant, he had James, Ewen, Ann and Ellen. Ann was married to Thomas Fraser, Basin. Ellen was married to James Robertson. The well-known Deacon Robertson, Churchville, was their son. Duncan, eldest son of John McDonald, was married to Catherine Fraser. James, their third son, was born about 1759. He was a Corporal in the 84th regiment. He married about 1782, Mary Forbes, by whom he had Alexander, Edward and other sons. He left East River about 1834, and settled in Upper Canada where he died in 1857. He was an elder under Dr. McGregor and a very prominent man on the East River in his day. Alexander McDonald, his fifth son, settled near Bridgeville and was the father of Hon. James McDonald, Chief Justice of Nova Scotia. Edward, second son of James McDonald, had a son John A. McDonald, who left the East River and settled in Ontario. John A. was the father of James A.Macdonald, LL.D., editor of the Toronto Globe and one of the ablest political writers in Canada. He is a Presbyterian minister and still preaches occasionally. Ontario claims the honor of being his birthplace, but the East River is entitled to some recognition in any reference to his parentage for both his parents were born there.
