Hello List I'm hoping to find background on one of my g-grandmothers. I know virtually nothing of her ancestors and would love to discover more. She was Mary McDONALD, b. 15 May 1851, Ardrishaig, Argyll. Father: Peter McDONALD, Blacksmith and Farrier. Mother: Isabella GRANT. Mary McDONALD married Donald GRANT 11 July 1876 in Glasgow, Lanarkshire. The couple migrated to South Africa. where they spent the rest of their lives. Best wishes Frank Early South Africa
