• Notes

  (Research):Discrepancies to by sorted out from Susana (Duncan) McGregor's obit. She is reffered to as Catherine rather than Susana as wife of Walter Lawson. Perhaps this is a second give name but have no evidence of this. She is mentioned as daughter of Duncan McGregor but is actually a step daughter of him. She is the daughter of John Duncan and Mary Gemmill. Mary married Duncan McGregor after John Duncan died in 1844. The obit mentions three siblings. Agnes (Mrs W Barnett) of Arnprior (verified) but also Mrs J.R. McMunn and Duncan McGregor of California are probably 1/2 siblings but unverified.
