My great grandfather John MacDonald had a brother Colin "Rory" MacDonald and Colin's first wife was Jane Ann Murray b. 1860 in Ontario, Canada.
The parents of Jane Ann were Norman Murray and Mary MacDonald. Norman had come from Lewis in 1851 and settled in Huron Twp, Bruce County. Here he married Mary MacDonald and they had the following children,
Margaret b. 1858 (married John MacDonald), Jane Ann b. 1860 (married Colin MacDonald), Mary b. 1863 (married Dan Morrison), Donald b. 1865 (married Ann Morrison), Angus b. 1865 (married Ann Martin), William b. 1870 (married Mary ???), Kate b. 1872 (married Duncan Campbell), Allan b. 1875 (married Ann MacDonald), Effie b. 1876 (married Charles Moles), and Tina b. 1878 (married Angus McKay).
Jane Ann Murray died in 1893 and Colin remarried to Catherine MacDonald.
I thought it worth listing the above as it may prove helpful to Murray researchers.I do have a little more information on the names listed above if anyone is interested.
