Death1884Praire Dog Twp, Harlan, NE, USA, McCoy: "Date from obituary of Elvira Uran McDougall Schafty."4
BiographyMcCoy: "The first census record for this family appears on the 1840 census, St. Lawrence Co., NY p. 147 (Lisbon), a listing for John McDugald (1 male 0-5, 1 male 5-10, 1 male 30-40, 1 female 0-5, 1 female 20-30)--no other relatives evident in Lisbon. A James McDougall family in Rossie, St. larence Co., came from Scotland or England about 1817, thus not believed to be a relative. Birthplaces of the children of John and Elvira suggest migration, perhaps by way of Canada, to Wisconsin about 1845, then to IL about 1849, then Clinton Co., IA about 1852 (per obituary of Carrie E. McDougall Reedy). The family seems to have stayed in Clinton Co. until the late 1860's (marriages of children there). Court records put them in Linn Co., IA around 1870, but they seem to hve left by 1870 census. By 1871 (marriage records) they are apparently in Greene Co., IA. Carrie McDougall's obituary shows them moving to Hubbard, NE (Dakota Co.), but this might be Hubbard, IA (Hardin Co.) sometime between Linn Co. and Greene Co. Parents are in Harlan Co., NE by 1880. Deed records there should be examined to determine when they arrived. Family of Lucinda McDougall Grundy indicates in NE as early as 1876. It is possible some members of the family lived with realtives at various times. Birthplace of Hester (New York City) seems to be a detour, but not impossible. Marriage of an Elizabeth McDougall in Clinton Co., IA in 1860, and presence of Dugald McDougall in Linn Co., IA census in 1870, suggests there may be related McDougall families in that area, but none of these families has been followed up.
Information from Lorraine Wallace: Pension file of John R. McDougall includes a statement by S.D. Fitzgerald, who knew the family in Iowa as well as Kansas. He says that John McDougall Sr. cut up a man named Bullock and lost his farm over the incident. This happened in Linn Co., IA near Center Point sometime between 1868 and 1873. Lorraine has found deeds dated March 1870 in Linn Co., IA, in which John and Elvira sell their land. Who was this S.D. Fitzgerald? A friend, or a relative?
Information from Ernest Grundy: His grandmother, Lucinda McDougall Grundy, liked to pore through her memorial Civil War books, and told of her two brothers in that war (John R. and William James) and how one was wounded at the battle of Shiloh (John R. McDougall's discharge certificate notes that the ball remained permanently embedded in his left thigh, permanently interfering with the motions of the hip joint). Ernest Grundy's father told him how the McDougalls kept a station on the underground railroad just before the Civil War. When one of Lucinda's brothers took food down to the escaped slaves in their hideaway and heard their stories, he vowed he would join the Army some day and help put an end to slavery. James R. McDougall has provided copies of pages from his grandfather John R. McDougall's family Bible, confirming John McDougall Sr.'s birthdate but not mentioning his death at all. With all branches of the family contacted except that of Phebe Jane, it does not appear that any recollection of the ancestry of John McDougall survives. Probably the closest thing we have to a clue is contained in the records of the United Presbyterian Church of South Argyle, Washington Co., NY. The extant marriage records begin 1830, and on the second page appears "John McDougal & Miss Uran", dated 11 aug 1832, and noting they are from the Hebron congregation, apparently. The Hebron congregation would presumably be the Presbyterian church there. The baptisms do not mention any of the McDougall children, nor do the Urans appear. However, there is a family list dating from approximately 1830, showing the following John McDougalls: John McDougald with family member John W., James 1st with family members James 2nd (wife Ellenor?) and likely his son John H., another James with family member John, Daniel with family member John B. The 1830 communicants list has 2 James as well as John (wife Mary) and Daniel (wife Catherine). There are also McDougalls in the records of the First Presbyterian Church of Argyle, but those begin about 1852.
Land Records: Harlan Co., NE land entries include: John McDougal, land in Sec 32 (and part of 29?) T @ N, R 18 W, 160 A., sale dated 24 oct 1872 (#461), final certificate 1162 issued 16 my 1878. A further cnacelled entry in Sec 19 (159.56 A) is dated 12 sep 1879 (#2869), cancelled 20 oct 1885, reference #107467-1885. The latter occurred after his death, so may be correspondence noting date of death.
The pattern of naming among the early Washington Co., NY, McDougall's follows the traditional pattern of the border lands. The first son is likely to be named after the father's father, and the second son after the father himself. If this pattern was followed, the most likely father fo John would be John R. McDougall. Indeed, the only impediment to this ttribution of parentage is the existence of a John Walter McDougall buried at South argyle Presbyterian Church. Jennie Patten puts his dates as 24 apr 1810 -17 jan 1831, and the published cemetery records show the same death date, but note age 24, resulting in a birth year of 1806, and notes the inscription "son of John". Jennie's reading, evidently from correspondence before 1935, is probably the more credible. Further, there is a notation of a John W. in the family list of John R. McDoughall and Mary Ann Harsha in the records of that church (early 1830's?), but that John W. is not noted as being dead. It is just possible that the John W. McDougall buried at South Argyle is not the son of Joh R. and Mary Ann, and that the John McDougall who married Elvira Uran is their true son."

Biography"Some interesting information is contained in the marriage affidaviit. It mentions the written consent of James' mother, proof of his father's death, and evidence of his being of lawful age. Also, an affidavit from William F. Adams is mentioned, attesting that he was personally acquainted with Carrie McDougal and that she was over the age of 18. From this we deduce the unavailability of her own family, likely because they were living somewhere else at the time. Who was William F. Adams? Possibly a relative?"; son of Mary Kerr Rankin (b. 14 aug 1824, PA; d. 14 sep 1902) and William Michael Reedy, a Presbyterian minister (b. 6 jul 1821 PA, d. 27 jul 1857, Freeport IL?
