WILLIAM MCDONALD

William MCDONALD, was born in Ohio about 1813, of Scotch ancestry. He came West with his mother in 1854. She was a Mormon, and went to Salt Lake City, Utah, but he refused to go, and settled in Harrison County, where he lived a single man the remainer of his days. He accumulated a large property, generally valued at $50,000; he was a highly respected citizen, and stood high in point of honor, and integrity by al who knew him. After his death, which occurred in April 1886, his land was sold at auction, the proceeds going to his relatives. Thus lived and died William MCDONALD.
