This is a very quiet list indeed. Perhaps we DONALDSONs are just a quiet bunch. Personally, mine left Forgandenny, just outside of Perth in 1849, and are now to be found in Canada, United States, Australia and New Zealand. I am looking, in particular for information on my first DONALDSON, William DONELDSON of Forgandenny who was born in 1649?. He had one son, John, that I have some information on, but I am most interested in finding William's wife, and whether they had more children. Any information would be most welcome.
