    3. Hi all. On my Dad's baptismal certificate it lists his Godparents as James E. McDonald & Ruth M. Regan. My Grandma Harrison's maiden name was McDonald and I know that she did have an uncle by the name of James E. McDonald. I am trying to find out if the man listed as the godfather for my Dad's baptism would have been the same man or possibly his son. My grandmother did not have any brothers named James E. --only George who died at 9 months. Also I am curious as to who this Ruth Regan might have been. A friend or possibly a relative? My Grandmother was from Emerson, NE in Dixon County and married my Grandfather in Lincoln, where they also lived. The McDonald family did not live in Lincoln, so this would have been quite a trip to travel, from Dixon County to Lincoln in 1933. Any ideas on how I could find out more about these people? My Dad was baptized here in Lincoln at the same Catholic Church that I went to while growing up. I am more curious than anything because I have not been able to track down my G-grandfather Barney J. McDonald's brother James E. McDonald who was supposed to have moved to Texas long before my Dad was born. Suggestions are welcome. Have a great day! Kathie Harrison
