Hi Roy, These McMillans might be related, since there was another "Malcolm" "The History of Wellington County" by Jean Hutchinson Melgund Post Office - named after the Earl of Minto who was also Viscount of Melgund. It was located on lot 16, con A, on the property of John McMillan who became the Postmaster. John McMillan was born in Islay, Scotland. In the 1906 Earthquake in San Francisco, two of his sons were working there. William escaped without injury, but brother Neil received injuries from falling debris. William was able to get him back home, where he died soon after. John McMillan was a framer, and with the help of his sons, built many bank barns. Upon his retirement, son, Malcolm took over the farm until 1912.
