    3. Leora Thanks so much for passing on this information. It gives me a precise marriage location, which I did not have before. I also appreciate the detail about the children, but there is just one point I wondered if I could check: Janet's birth is recorded in two sources as Jan 4 1907, but the birth of William Dugald McMillan (below) is listed at just three months before. Could William's birth be in 1905? (Another daughter was born in 24 May 1904, but not named; she may have died in infancy). Again, thank you so much for the information. As you are interested in the McKenzie line, I'll get back to you if I find out more.
