My great gran was Mary Mcrae. The older john Mcrae you mentioned was her brother. He married Margaret colquhoun in 1884 and they had 10 children. The family did come from Bonhill. I have that the younger john and his brothers jack and william died in world war 1 but didn't have a birth date for him or any other info. I didn't know they had gone to canada although several other family members did. Thanks for that. Where did you get your info? Do you have a family connection? Gill
