Descendants
of Donald McDougall
Generation No. 1
DONALD MCDOUGALL was born in
Scotland. He married MARY JANE LANDLING. She was
born in Prince Edward Island. These are the names and birthplaces given on the
record of their son Angus’s marriage. Their son Peter’s marriage record states
they were both born on P.E. Island. Donald is listed as a laborer.
Children of DONALD MCDOUGALL and MARY LANDLING are:
i. MATTHEW M.2 MCDOUGALL, b. May 12, 1856, Prince Edward Island; d. May 08,
1935, Bar Harbor, ME; m. HENRIETTA (unknown),
between 1910 and 1920; b. c.. 1864; d. between 1920 and 1935; both buried in Holy Redeemer Cemetery, Bar Harbor, ME. His
death certificate lists his father’s name as Ambrose McDougall.
ii. ANGUS A. MCDOUGALL, b. April 14, 1858, Souris, PEI;
d. November 16, 1937, Millinocket, ME. (see below)
iii. PETER MCDOUGALL, b. March 1865, Prince Edward Island; m. MARY CASEY,
September 09, 1902, Eden, Maine; b. March 1865, Prince Edward Island; daughter
of John Casey and (unknown) Doran, both born P.E. Island.
NOTES FOR DONALD MCDOUGALL: There are three death records
in the PEI card index for men named Donald MacDougall. Donald MacDougall #1.
died in 1891 at age 91 (b. 1800) in Canoe Cove and came from Argylshire, Scotland. He was a farmer and executor of a
will. There were Landrigans in that area also. Donald
MacDougall #2 died in 1875 at 86 (b. 1789) in Belle Creek and came from the
Isle of Skye in 1806. Donald MacDougall #3 was buried 30 May 1903 at 81 years
in St. Patrick's Cemetery in Grand River. This Donald is likely the same one
who married Flora MacDonald and had a daughter Elizabeth baptized in Grand
River in 1883 and is therefore not our Donald. There are no birth records for a
Matthew or a Peter. There is one Angus McDougall, b. 7 May, 1857 in Belfast and
baptized March 18, 1858 by D. Fitzgerald
in St. Paul's Church, Charlottetown, Record Book 1, p. 41. His father is
listed as Donald McDougall but his mother's name is given only as "Dancy." The registers at St. Mary’s Parish, Souris and
St. Alexis Paris, Rolls Bay show no McDougalls at all
in the birth, marriage, or death registers for the 1800s.
NOTES FOR MARY JANE LANDLING:
There do not seem to be any Landlings in PEI. There
are Landrigans and Landrys,
either of which could easily have been written as Landling
by mistake.
Generation No. 2
ANGUS A. MCDOUGALL was born April 14,
1858, according to family memory in Souris, PEI, and died November 16, 1937 in
Millinocket, ME. He married ELIZABETH ARSENAULT October 02, 1890 in Old Town, ME, daughter of DENNIS ARSENAULT and JENNIE FITZGERALD. She was born between 1867 and 1869 in Prince
Edward Island, and died June 25, 1945 in Bangor, ME. Both are buried in
Millinocket, ME. Angus was a carpenter at the time of his marriage and his
bride was listed as a “domestic.” Witnesses to the marriage were Donald
McDonald and Mary McDougall. Elizabeth’s death certificate lists her father’s
name as Charles Ashley, born in Maine, but her mother’s name is correctly given
as Jennie Fitzgerald, born in Canada. Elizabeth had been confined in the Bangor
State Hospital for twenty years and ten months at the time of her death. Angus
McDougall was living with his son Clayton at the time of the 1930 census.
