Justin,

I have a number of McDuffies in my tree and (in case you haven’t come across it already) there is a 1841 census record for your Donald in Cornabus, with his mother and four older sisters, Marion, Eliza, Bell (Isobel) and Catherine. Donald is described as a tax man and, aged 22, he was the head of the household. Cheers, Iain Brown

I believe he was born in Cornabus and I know emigrated to Canada, where he died in Markdale, Ontario. I believe his parents were John McDuffie and Diana Campbell. Donald arrived in Canada about 1849. I know Donald McDuffie served as a postmaster in Markdale which was named Cornabus, after the hometown of Donald(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdale,_Ontario). I have attached the only photo I have of Donald McDuffie which was taken in Canada. Does anyone have any connections or information about Donald McDuffie or his parents John McDuffie and Diana Campbell? <Donald and Sarah MacDuff_ie_ _1_.jpg> Thanks much, Justin Baer
