The following information has been assembled from many sources. Much of the information had been collected and supplied by Charles (Bub) Wall McDonald. Other main contributors include, W. B. McDonald Miller, Margaret Stewart McDonald Turner, Alice Elizabeth McDonald Cogle, Martha Payne McDonald Martin, Theodore Roger McDonald, Daniel McDonald, Max L. McDaniel, Mollie Seibert Zeigler, “A Backward Glance at the Borum Heritage” (Virginia Borum McGuire, Editor),and the internet. We must be thankful to these family members for their interest and time spent in research of our family, writing biographies, and sharing with us.

Every effort was made to use correct and accurate information. I did little research myself except to accumulate information supplied me. I did take the liberty to edit, combine, condense, expand, and in some cases using best judgment when there was a conflict in dates and information. However, where possible this is indicated. Some items have been copied as written. Some biographies of family members of my era, contain information I supplied from my relationship with them over the years.

A family tree keeps growing. It grows from both at the top and at the bottom. On the top as new members are born and marriages take place, new branches are formed. And at the bottom, the roots, as research is done and new ancestors and family members are found. As the branches of this family tree spread out or new information is discovered or corrections need made, please forward these addition and corrections to me. Additions and corrections are always welcomed and appreciated. Periodically as changes occur, I will be happy to forward these changes to you at your request.

The number in front of each name indicates what generation they are in and the number of generations from our first known ancestor of that family. Other symbols: + spouse of the person above them, +(1) and +(2) first and second spouse.

If you would like copy of this family tree, I will be happy to email all or any part of it to you.
