My MacDonalds/McDonald also lived in Carroll County, Iowa. James Orington MacDonald was born 28 Sept 1872 in Maine. He married Myrtle A. Allender, who was born 4 July 1880 in Merrill, Wisconsin. They lived in Coon Rapids, Carroll County, Iowa on 6 November 1909, when one of their twins, Iras Alphall MacDonald, died. Iras is buried at Orange Center Cemetery. She was 2 1/2 years old. Does this time frame fit Bernard McDonald's stay in Carroll County, Iowa? Can I ask the list if any of this MacDonald/McDonald information fit with their reserach? Pam
