Hi Beryl,

I have a McDONALD connection. Margaret who married Colin CAMERON,
they came out on the Euphrates in 1856 to Belfast Vic with six
children.
Also on the same ship was Allan MCDONALD his wife Sarah and Donald
infant. Both families were assisted by James RITCHIE of Blackwood
Station, occupation shepherd, and from Inverness.
? were these families related, I suspect they were.
The Cameron family took up land on part of Blackwood Station by 1862
at Yalimba East.

Regards Eileen
