I am looking for pictures or any info about the farm that used to belong to Angus McDonald (my great grandfather). It was located on Concession H-I formerly Fawkham Road. Time frame early 1900's?

Also interested in any photos or stories about the old Hunter Farm at Ragged Rapids. (Clarence and Lizzie Hunter) Pictures would be great or locations of the old barn(s) and wells.

John Weir on Lot 1, Conc. H, Rama Township was postmaster for Fawkham, so Concession H may have been Fawkham Road.

In the 1860's/ 70's there was an Angus McDonald growing up on Lot 2 , Concession H, the son of John P. McDonald. Angus went to work for a McRae who owned a sawmill in Midland ca. 1882 and married his daughter Mary Ellen McRae and had a large family and now many descendants, all of whom are cousins of mine.

If this is not the Angus you are looking for, I may be able to help more if you provide a lot and concession number and the name of his spouse.
