The d/o Duncan McGillivray & Catherine McGillis married Ranald "the vagabond"McDonald in 1890. Ranald is s/o Alexander s/o Ranald Mor McDonald my great great grandfather who emigrated in 1817 from Ireland.
We now know the Ranald McGillis of the Old Donald line went to Georgia and his wife is Hannah. The other Ranald McGillis as uncle of Fr. John of the Diary is well and reliably documented and belongs to the Donald of Donald of Donald of Andrew line DDDA. Curious for me is that this Ranald and his brother John are the separate grandparents of Donald and Annie, my great grandparents who were 2nd cousins.

Congratulations on being Pre-1700 certified! With the certification comes a strong recommendation to choose a project which best fits the pre-1700 profiles you'll be working on. Since you've joined recently, you'll be getting tour stops introducing you to all kinds of WikiTree wonderfulness for the next several weeks. I'd recommend waiting for the Week 2 tour stop which includes information about projects.
In the meantime, be thinking about the particular time periods, locations, and topics in which you're interested. Do you have some historically-significant ancestors? Take a look at the list of [active projects] for ideas.

You are now a confirmed member, and you can get started adding your family members. As we've said, WikiTree is quite different from other genealogy sites. So, we've put together a guided tour to help you learn how to use it. Your first stop is How to Start Climbing Our Tree.
Tomorrow, you'll hear from a Mentor who will check in to see how you're doing and answer any questions you might have.
Next week, you'll get another message with your next stop on the guided tour.
You can also meet some of our members by joining in the fun with our Question of the Week in the G2G forum: [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/360737
Were any of your ancestors involved in the American Indian Wars?
Welcome!

Welcome to WikiTree! The email we just sent has helpful links to get you started.
WikiTree is different than other genealogy websites because our goal is to have one profile per person, and that means we share ancestors and work together as a BIG collaborative team!
What brings you to WikiTree? Do you have research youd like to share? Are you interested in how your family fits into the big tree?
When you confirm your email address, youll be given an opportunity to volunteer to help document our collective family history. Use the Tags and comments to tell us about your genealogical interests.
When you volunteer, one of our Greeters will confirm your membership. Then you'll be able to add your family to the tree!
We're really glad you're here!
