Biography

Mary Amelia Robinson was the fourth daughter of Sir John Beverley Robinson, 1st Baronet of Toronto. She was likely named after her mother's cousin Mary Amelia Merry Lukin, who died a young woman in 1816.

Mary and Donald had 5 sons and one daughter.^[1]

The MacInnes' lived in Hamilton, Ontario. In 1872, the large home built by Sir Allan McNab in Dundurn Park was purchased by Donald MacInnes, a Hamilton merchant, railway promoter and banker, and eventually Senator. It was he who was responsible for the stone coach-house, and quite a few other modifications to the building. The MacInnes family inhabited Dundurn 'Castle' for almost thirty years.^[2]
