Hi Judy,
Thank you for the response. I just responded to Stella with a bit more information that I neglected to include in my first post. John Baptiste McDougall came to the Yale area sometime before 1881, but was originally from Manitoba. I believe Marianne Amelie was born in BC and could have been first nations. They had 10 children between 1850 and 1879. It is possible Marianne passed away around 1889 while John lived until 1903.
Anything you can point me towards would be appreciated.
