The Judith McDonald Family Home Page

I am researching the MCDONALD family from Brantford, Ontario, Canada. John Kenneth MCDONALD and Marian Eva KELLY are listed as my father's, Aloyouis Alexander McDonald, parents on his birth certificate, dated May 28, 1910, born in Brantford Ontario Canada. There were nine children from this union, however, I only know of Walter, Thomas, Evelyn, Aloyouis, John, Anne and Jean. John Kenneth McDonald appears to have been born in Canada. Marian Eva Kelly moved to Canada, via USA, from Ireland. Her brother Jock Kelly lived in Detroit MI. I would appreciate any information on the McDonald and the Kelly families.
Additionally, I'm also researching the BRINK Anthony family of Baltimore, MD. He was born in Germany March 1830 and arrived in the US in 1840. He married Elizabeth Caroline WILHEM in the 1850s and they had two sons, Anthony Brink, Jr. b April 1860. And Joseph Josephus Brink born February 04, 1864, m Mary Jane BREEN May 22, 1890 in Boise Idaho, d April 08, 1936 in Tacoma WA. And two daughters. Catherin born October 1860, m Joseph Weber in 1888; and Eualia who became a Roman Catholic nun. I am interested in finding out when Anthony Brink and Elizabeth Wilhem died and where, any information on their respective parents who were born in Germany.

In addition to the above, I'm researching the COOK, Lucinda family of Ohio. There were at least two siblings: George COOK, b abt 1824 and Walter COOk, born about 1830. Lucinda was born 1834 in Ohio, d May 15, 1885, Henry County Illinois. m [1] George Harlan. One child, daughter Renna Harlan. m [2] Nathan Coffman BOLIN, December 24, 1857 Stark County, Illinois. Children of this marriage: Ella L. Bolin, b May 25, 1859 Illinois; William B. Bolin b April 17, 1861, d 1872; Ida Belle Bolin [my great-grandmother] b April 16, 1863, Rock Island Illinois; d. March 08, 1958, Mooreland OK, m John Jay REESE September 18, 1881, in Cornwall, Henry County, Illinois; Etta M. Bolin b June 16, 1865, d 1879; and Cecil Grace Bolin b August 18, 1875. I am searching for Lucinda's parents - names, place of birth, etc.
