It has been a bit difficult to find much information on this > branch of my MacDonalds, but I can tell you they lived, and some may still > live on the land just west of Urquhart Castle, and some were in Inverness > as well. I know my gg grandfather Duncan left his family there and came to > the US when he was 21, in about 1875. He led the family sheep up Glen > Urquhart in the spring to get better feed, the legend has it, though I > don't know that for fact. Does anyone have any knowledge of this family? > Many thanks. Anything will be very much appreciated. We are all so tied to > our ancestry...each piece of new information is a gift. I will visit the > family heritage center when I visit Inverness-shire this spring, but > knowing all I can in advance keeps me going til I can get there... > Jody Sylvester > Daytona Beach >
