History
James C. MacDonald (OAC 1897) and his son Donald W. MacDonald (OAC 1938) were both editors of The Family Herald and Weekly Star (Montreal). Their ancestors, William and Helen MacDonald and family, had emigrated from Rutherglen, Scotland to Lanark, Upper Canada in 1820 and later settled in Wentworth County, Ontario in the 1830s.
