Margaret -- it was so kind of you to respond, thank you! I found some wonderful information via the family trees you mentioned.

I'm going to continue to look for information about their emigration from Scotland. Via Worldconnect, I found that Malcolm Downie apparently came in 1818 (approx. 21 years old), but I don't yet have hard evidence of this, plus I wonder who he came with? (I'm assuming he came without his parents, because I have not found Archibald Downie or Euphemia Campbell in any Canadian documents or Ontario cemeteries.)

Malcolm's future wife, Isabella Leitch, apparently immigrated in 1819 (approx. 15 years old) on ship Harmony, with her parents John Leitch and Flora Johnston. Flora, her mother, died the same year in Ontario, CAN.

Worldconnect info. also indicated that John Lietch was a native of ACHACHOSIN Parish, North Knapdale, Argyllshire, Scotland, and that his daughter, Isabella was born there in 1804. I could not find this parish, but found one spelled ACHADHCHOSEN, apparently a "place" on the estate of Sir Archibald Campbell in North Knapdale. I found a John Leitch on a list of renters for this estate about the time of his daughter's birth in 1804. He was the "son law" of a Ronald Johnston, who was a also farmer on Sir Campbell's estate. I'm thinking this just might be the correct John Leitch, because of the place name, and because he was married to Flora Johnston (whose father very well could be Ronald Johnston, although I have no other evidence of this).

If you come across any other information about Malcolm's parents (Archibald Downie & Euphemia Campbell), or Isabella's parents (John Leitch & Flora Johnston) I'd love to know about it. bethanygreg@verizon.net Thank you again!!
