Hi Ida, All the information I have says that Flora was from Mull but I don't have any record for it. I have this from the paper in Duluth, MN: Date: Friday, April 16, 1920 Paper: Duluth News-Tribune (Duluth, MN) Volume: 51 Issue: 335 Page: 4 "MRS. D. MCLEAN BORN 1830 DIED APRIL 14 1920 Duluthians learned yesterday of the death of Mrs. Duncan McLean, age 90, formerly of Duluth, at Carmangay, Alberta. Mrs. McLean lived in Duluth for 20 years. She moved to Alberta in 1908 with her daughter Mrs. R.R. Knox, with whom she was living at the time of her death, which occured Wednesday. Mrs. McLean is survived by four sons, Hector, Angus and J.C. of Duluth and Duncan, who lives in Toronto and two daughters, Mrs. David McCarter of Saskatchewan and Miss Julia of Alberta, besides Mrs. Knox. The body will be brought to Duluth for internment." Picture is included. I was able to find this record: WHYTE, DONALD. A Dictionary of Scottish Emigrants to Canada before Confederation. Toronto: Ontario Genealogical Society. Volume 2, 1995. 435p. Name:Flora CameronArrival Year:1840Arrival Place:Ontario, CanadaSource Publication Code:9758.1Primary Immigrant:Cameron, Flora The first census I have is with she and Duncan in 1861: Duncan Mcclan MALE 41 1820 Scotland Married Flora Mcclan FEMALE 34 1827 Scotland Married Hector Mcclan MALE 5 1856 Canada Margaret Mcclan FEMALE 9 1852 Canada The Township of Mariposa---Victoria--- After Duncan's death 5 Sep 1908 Duluth, MN Flora and Julia, their daughter, go to Carmangay, Vulcan, Albert. They lived with another daughter Euphemia and her husband Robert Knox. I have not been able to find a marriage record for she and Duncan yet nor a record of her death in Carmangay. She is buried under Mrs. Flora McLean: Carmangay Strathmore Census Division Alberta, Canada Plot: Lot -- 02 --- Block -- 04The family cesus's I have show that Duncan and Flora were married in 1850and 1861 in Mariposa, Victoria, Ontario 1871, 1881 and 1891 in Nottawasaga, Simcoe, Ontario by 1900 they have moved to Duluth, MN. The 1911 and 1916 census's have Flora in Alberta. I would LOVE to find the marriage record because it would probably have Flora's parents on it.
