I recently found out that my great-great-great-great-grandfather Daniel McDonald Born: 1780 Died: 1862 and my great-great-great-great-grandmother Flora Douglas McDonald Born: 1781 Died; 1850, their graves and tombstones are in the Old Carolina Presbyterian Church Cemetery there in Neshoba County, Mississippi.

Several months ago, I found out that my great-great-great-grandfather Daniel McDonald Born: March 1805 Died: December 1884 that tombstone is broken that is in the Old Carolina Church Cemetery. So far, I have not found out for sure where my great-great-great-grandmother Elizabeth Caroline Melinda McKee McDonald that died in August 1898 was buried. I recently learned that my great-great-great-great-grandmother was Margaret Cunningham McKee.

I am trying to locate direct descendents or other relatives of Daniel McDonald Born: 1805, John H. McDonald Born: 1845 and/or relatives of Walter L. McDonald Born: 1891 that are still living in the area. When my Great-Grand-Uncle Walter L. McDonald died in 1966, he was living in Kosciusko, Mississippi. According to the research that I have done it looks like to me that Walter L. McDonald’s nephews George, Roy and J.C. McDonald were pallbearers at his funeral.

I am hoping to hear from relatives that have a picture or pictures of my great-great-great-grandfather Daniel McDonald Born 1805 Died 1884 and/or that might have any stories. I want to purchase at least one copy of Daniel McDonald’s picture.

If you read this article and realize that we are related, I hope you contact me.

God bless.
