About Duncan McLeod

From the "History Of Inverness County":

"The younger son, Duncan, then sixteen years old, remained with his father at B. C. Marsh."

"Duncan, the youngest son of Donald, took up a farm of his own adjoining his father's property at B. C. Marsh, and was married in 1822 to Christina McLennan, daughter of Roderick McLennan of Kintail, Scotland. She came to this country in 1821 in the sixteenth year of her age, and was married to Duncan McLeod the following year. They had fourteen children, seven sons and seven daughters. The first two of these children, a boy and girl died in infancy. "

"The six daughters of old Donald McLeod, and the married daughters of his son Duncan were married in this and adjacent districts, and had large families. It will be more convenient to describe these families by themselves further on." -------------------- From "Clan MacLennan":

"In 1822, Christine married Duncan MacLeod, who was born at Horseshoe Cove on the Bay Of Fundy. With his parents, brothers, and sisters, he moved to Dunvegan when he was sixteen years old."
