Hi I may have some info for you on the New Brunswick McDonalds. My gr gr gr grandfather was Francis McDonald ( possibly married to Nancy Greer) who was from Queens Co. New Brunswick. The Gagetown Anglican Church baptism records list the children of David and Hannah (possibly Lefurgey) McDonald of Grand Lake, N.B. Daniel, Francis, Hannah, Henry and John were baptised 17 Feb. 1794 and William 29 Feb. 1796. It appears that a number of the McDonald children migrated to Prince Edward County in the early 1800's and are closely linked to the Branscombe family who also migrated from Queens Co. N.B. David McDonald is listed in "Loyalists of New Brunswick" by Esther Clark Wright. Hope this helps. Ruth
