McDonald Family - old photos

The following is a gallery of old photographs of the McDonald family. If you are looking for other
family history documents or information, please visit The McDonalds website.

UPDATE! - Over the next few weeks I'll be adding quite a few new photos. I've set
the gallery so that the new additions will appear at the beginning of this gallery. The photos
I put up last week are still here, but will be further down the page. Also, I've added some new
material to the above-mentioned The McDonalds website - some hockey
news stories from 1913. To go to the website, click here

Hello Brian, I don't think there is a direct connection to this family, but you never know. So far as we know, there were two brothers (James and Patrick McDonald) who came from Ireland -- probably sometime before 1850. They settled in the area around Iroquois, Ontario (Matilda Township). It's possible that they had a younger sister with them when they came from Ireland. I believe it likely that Patrick McDonald's family did not remain in that area, but perhaps some went to the area south of the St. Lawrence River (Ogdensburg), or maybe west toward Belleville, Ont. The family of James McDonald seemed to remain in the Iroquois area and that is the branch of the family which my relations are descended from.
