Hi Delana, I am very interested in your John McDonald. I have a John McDonald that came from PA to Jackson County between 1850 and 1860. He had a son named John, born about 1829 in PA and also married there. He did not come to Ohio with his father and siblings. He came earlier (date unknown) with his wife and children to Perry or Hocking County. The other siblings settled in Jackson and Vinton Counties, and later part of the family went to Ross, Highland, Fayette, and Franklin Counties, and one went to Michigan. I have the names of his siblings if you think they may be connected to your McDonald family. Thank you, Harold McDonald Cantonment, Florida
