Dr. Wilton McDonald II - Attorney & Barrister I've just uploaded the marriage doc you'd cited for William Edward McDonald, Jr. & Daphne Naomi Potts

His father is not William McDonald; it's Daniel Mc Donald. I'm removing and creating a profile for the actual father.

Ok that's fine but thanks for re connecting the line with John/ James after Daniel

Okay, so there's documentation on Daniel? I'll go and upload if I can.... hang on...

cf https://www.geni.com/discussions/250460?msg=1566592

Do you have a profile for Daniel (with the documentation above) that should be merged with this one?

Dr. Wilton McDonald II - Attorney & Barrister the doc you've uploaded as Daniel (assumed brother of William Jr) McDonald's profile pic is never going to be possible to read unless you upload it to Sources.

Please upload the docs to the Sources tab - or send me the links if you don't know how, and I'll see if it is doable. The profile pics are illegible so proof of nothing you want them to validate, as yet.

Abraham Daniel McDonald in St James Parish, Cornwall Registry
Born Sep 5 1875 Montego Bay, Jamaica
s/o William Mc Donald & Anne

Is now positioned on Geni as the son of William and Marion

cf William Macdonald & Marion McDonald

Marion signs his DN as spouse.

That makes it likely that
Abraham Daniel McDonald in St James Parish, Cornwall Registry
Born Sep 5 1875 Montego Bay, Jamaica
s/o William Mc Donald & Anne

is not the same person

as Daniel Mc Donald

So, I suspect that
Abraham Daniel McDonald
Birth: circa 05 September 1875
Montego Bay, Jamaica
Death: Jamaica/ or USA- unknown (possibly casualty of war)

Is NOT the Son of William Macdonald and Marion McDonald

NOT the Husband of Lydia Hinds

NOT the Father of William Edward McDonald, Jr.

So I'm removing the baptism record for Abraham Daniel, s/o William & Anne McDonald. - I'll create a separate profile for that doc, and revert the name of the father of William Edward to Daniel only.

So - Abraham Daniel McDonald
Abraham Daniel McDonald (b 05 Sep 1875, Montego Bay, Jamaica -)
s/o William McDonald and Ann McDonald

is, for the moment, different to
Daniel (assumed brother of William Jr) McDonald
Daniel McDonald

  • William Edward Mc Donald x Daphnie Naomi Potts (d/o George Potts)

Who, is possibly the Daniel McDonald who was the son of William Macdonald and Marion McDonald

Created a profile for John McDonald as he was creating a Source Conflict on William Macdonald because you'd erroneously tagged him as William. Invited you to manage in case your Dad remembers if he fits in.

DN that you'd tagged shows:
John McDonald dies at 75 on 18 February 1915, Quebec Mountain, Port Maria, St Mary Parish, Jamaica
At death, he's married.
He was a labourer who died of the pains of old age
His DN is signed with the mark of his stepdaughter Emeline Slanton

Ok let me take a look- thanks. Will ask my dad- the good Rev Dr Pastor Mcdonald Sr

Dr. Wilton McDonald II - Attorney & Barrister is your 20th cousin five times removed.

Greetings to all!
From Caracas - Venezuela

Maria thanks - and good to meet you.

Sharon was deeply hurt by your comments today labeling me a fraud so no need to assist. Leave my Mcdonald line alone.

Thank you

Dr McDonald

I said Geni won't allow you to create fake profiles and deliberately mismerge other people's profiles on a collaborative world tree for your own purposes. This is a fact that affects all of us.
