No go with that birth-they're on the 1881 census for Bruce County
 Donald MCINTIRE  47   born Scotland   Farmer   
 Ann Jane MCINTIRE  33  born Scotland   
 Isibella MCINTIRE      9  born Scotland   
 Donald Geo. MCINTIRE  7  born Ireland   
 Hugh M. MCINTIRE  5  born Ireland   
 John Alford MCINTIRE    3  born Ireland   

That means Donald was born in 1833

Well, at least we can rule out those McIntyre names. 

Will check for more.

and by the way, we share NORTH America with the U.S., ( & 21 other countries...and then there's also South.America) so I have no idea why "America" might only apply to them? Perhaps not being able to add "ians"  or "ites" prompted them to adopt the whole continent   J.J.

Thank you so much for finding those posts-the Ancestry boards one was new to me. I've managed to contact a great great grandson of Marion Rennie and he has been able to give me details of Marion's descendants in Canada and the United States. It's been a long search but very educational.
