The info I have on the daughter of James McLaren born 1743 Balquhidder died 1818 Brudenell River Kings. He married Isabel MacDonald born 1745. He sailed from Port of Glasgow to Pictou Nova Scotia aged 60 stating his farm was taken from him along with approx 60 plus other Scots from the highlanders that where in a bad situation from having been a Jacobite. His children I have found are Janet born 1766/balquhidder, Donald -1770, Christina- 1772 (who appears in both my McLaren and Gordon line), William McLaren whom is my direct descendant, Isabella 5/1/1780, James 30/11/1785, John-1786 and Elizabeth-1792.

The information I found on Donald Gordon that married Christina McLaren after she died in 1804 @32yrs old in PEI he married in 1805 PEI, Jessie McLaren born 1780 in Scotland they had two sons I have recorded as John 1806-1886 & Peter 1811-1898. I know Christina the first wife was the daughter of James McLaren born 1743 Balquhidder and Isabel McDonald. The only Stewart in the line I have found so far are a Captain Donald McLaren of East Invernenty Jacobite born 1720 Balquhidder married Elizabeth Stewart born 1720 Blair Atholl. Her father was Rev Duncan Stewart 1st of Strathgarry minster of Dunoon and Janet MacCalman.

Hi
I live in NSW Australia and my family are the McLarens and Gordon's from PEI. My 4x grandfather was Capitan James Gordon who married Jane McLaren. He sailed to Australia was was successful as a building contractor in Sydney, Melbourne and Wellington NZ. His son Charles Henry married Elizabeth Jane Eddie who I know nothing more about as yet and then his son John Eadie Gordon married my great grandmother Amy Hilda May Sloggett.

Hi I am doing my family history and Donald Gordon and Christina McLaren are my 6th ? Great grandparents they immigrated on ship "commerce" . Son Henry Gordon born about Aug 1797 Perthshire married Margaret McDonald about 1820 Prince Edward island. Son Capt. James Gordon born about 1823 Brudnell lot 52 King's PEI. Died Portland Multnomah Oregon. Married Jane McLaren (Christina was her great aunt) on 5 Jan 1860 Queens, PEI. I only knew of a sister Isabel born 1826, died 24/2/1899 PEI. I did not know about your William which is exciting! James and Jane had J. Kelso, Ada, Hattie, Charles, lieutenant McLaren Gordon, and Dr of Archaeology George Gordon. Charles Henry Gordon married Amy Hilda May Sloggett my great grandmother who I remember she died about 1985.
