Surnames: MacDonald, McDonlad, McDannald Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/QBC.2ACI/2262 Message Board Post: I am seeking information on Alexander MacDonald born in Aberdeen Scotland. He was married to Isabella McLaughlin. They came to America in the aftermath of the Battle of Culloden in Scotland in 1747. He had a son born in Scotland named John that came with them. The rest of their children wereNelley, Peggy, Sarah, Mary, Geroge Warren, Elizabeth and Reuben. Alexander died in 1783. Specifically, I am wanting to find out Alexander's birthdate and his parent's names and any information regaurding their trip from Scotland or their lives in Scotland prior to the deprtation to America. I am wanting this information so I can begin to research his ancestors in Scotland. If anyone has any of this information or would be willing to do any research for me, I would greatly appreciate it. (Will pay for research done.) Thanks! Sheri
