    3. Hi again Sue, Not sure if he was originally a McCuaig or not.  I'm having a hard time trying to pinpoint the relationship of John McMillan to my direct line of McMillan's in Arthur.  I have some information on John, but no direct smoking gun.  John came over with his family in 1831 to Ancaster, went to Nassagaweya in 1838 and then Minto in 1860.  Must have met Annie around 1860 or so.  My Angus McMillan came over in 1848 to Arthur, so there may be a relationship or not. I'll bet you that the informant of John's death was actually Duncan McEwan, one of his daughter's husband who was listed by WF Mckenzie in John's family.  Informant name was probably put down wrong or at a later time and the doctor figured he was John's actual son, not his son in law.   Possibly could have been Duncan's gaelic accent as well, pending how thick it was.  Regards & happy hunting..

I've been trying to sort out the McLeods in Minto and Arthur twps to see if there were more Islay McCuaigs turned McLeods in the area beyond the two families that I have in my research.  Those two are both Norman McCuaig/McLeods...one married Janet Calder and the other Effie McDougal living relatively close to one another. Was John McLeod originally a McCuaig? I have no idea yet about any relationship with Ducan to your John McLeod.
