Military*1861This entry is from "Heroes of '61", Chapter 2, Submitted by Mary Saggio. Original Source from The Port Washington Star, Jan. 9, 1897.
"There was another gallant soldier from the town of Saukville in the Sixteenth Wisconsin who deserves special mention here although not a member of the Ozaukee Rifles.
James McDonald, the subject of this sketch, was the son of a brave soldier of the British army and was born in King's county, Ireland, January 6, 1818. When a year old, he was brought to America by his parents; they settling near Quebec, Canada. In Canada James passed his boyhood, grew to manhood, secured a common school education, and married. His wife dying left him with six children to care for, and with them he came to Wisconsin and Ozaukee county in 1858, buying and settling upon a farm in the town of Saukville.
The beginning of the civil war found James McDonald a true patriot, arranged upon the side of freedom and union, and in the fall of 1862 he volunteered to fight for his adopted country "three years or during the war." He wanted to join his neighbors in the Rifles or old company "K" of the Sixteenth, but when he reached the regiment, company "K" had ceased to exist, it having been merged into Company "G" and he was assigned to "E" one of the best companies in the regiment.
Our hero was a great lover of music, played the violin beautifully, and having a remarkably sweet and well cultivated voice, sang charmingly. Of a happy jovial disposition he was very fond of good company and was the best of company himself, always as ready for a frolic as the youngest of his comrades. Always healthy, hardy, brave, cheerful and willing, he made an excellent soldier - one ever ready for duty - as ready for a bout with the enemy as was for a song or laugh with the boys. It is no wonder then that he became a great favorite with his comrades, for he never was so happy as when making others happy. He participated in all of the battles and campaigns in which the regiment was engaged, from the beginning of 1863 until the close of the war, always doing his duty, - no matter how trying it might be, - in a cheery, uncomplaining manner that was the admiration of his commanders and comrades. Often in bivouac or camp has the writer seen a crowd of pleased soldiers around "Jimmie" McDonald, listening with rapt attention to his charming renditions of Scotish or Irish music and songs. It was a treat to hear him.
After the war he returned to his farm in Saukville, was married to Miss Margaret Gough, a highly esteemed lady of that town, in 1867, and ten years later moved his family to Fremont, Neb., where his wife died in 1879. In 1880 he joined the colony planted in northern Nebraska by Gen. John O'Neil and in 1890 removed to Greely county, Neb. where he died respected and beloved by all who knew him, August 18, 1896. No more sterling patriot fought for the old flag during the civil war than sunny, gallant James McDonald, who as a soldier or a citizen was ever a gentleman, pure in speech, action and motive, and honest to the innermost core. The world is always bettered by having such men living in it, and when they leave it there is a void not easily filled. Those who knew him will ever revere the name and memory of James McDonald."1 
Marriage1867Margaret Gough; Saukville, Ozaukee County, Wisconsin, United States1 
Land*1873Saukville, Ozaukee County, Wisconsin, United States; James owned 80 acres south of and bordering on Hawthorne Road in the northeast quarter of Section 9 of the town of Saukville. In 1892, this land is listed as belonging to Thomas Gough (husband of Mary Ann McDonald who I believe to possibly be James McDonald's sister).3

Whereupon the said Janet McDonald being in good bodily health and of sound and disposing mind, memory, being and judgment as appeared unto us the said notaries by her manner and conversation did accordingly make, publish and dictate her Last Will & Testament word for word to the said John Simpson Hossack in the presence and hearing of Fisher Langlois, his colleague being all the time present, as follows, that is to say:

Firstly, I desire that all my just debts and also the debts of my late husband be fully paid as soon as convenient after my decease by my Executors hereafter named and that my body be interred at Valcartier beside my late husband and that my name be put upon his head stone.

Secondly, I will, devise and bequeath unto Robert Ross, my step son, all, any and every right title I may have as property in that certain farm at Valcartier belonging to me and my late husband and now occupied by the said Robert Ross, my step son, to and for his proper use.

Thirdly, and as to the whole of my personal and moveable property, I will, order and direct that the same be divided as following, namely, a consolidated Municipal Debenture for one hundred pounds now in the hands of H.S. Scott Esquire to be sold and that the proceeds thereof be added to another sum amounting from interest also in his hands amounting, on the twenty eight day of February last past, to twenty five pounds six shillings and eleven pence currency, and also all other monies which may come into his hands, and out of these sums thirty pounds currency to be paid to Mrs. Mary McDonald of Quebec, widow of the late Thomas Paterson, as the balance of the above monies together also with all my clothing, linen, furniture & bedding shall be the sole property of Mrs. James Watt and Ann Plain being to and for their proper use, trust and behoof.

To have and to hold the aforesaid legacies unto my aforesaid legatees respecting to and for their proper use, trust and behoof agreeing to and in assertion with the conditions, tenor and meaning of these presents, my last will.

And for the due execution of these presents my Last Will and Testament I hereby nominate, constitute and appoint Henry Stewart Scott, Esquire, and James Watt to be the Executors hereof into whose hands I hereby divest myself of all my property according to the law.

And I do hereby annul and revoke all former wills and codicils by me and at any time heretofore made claiming that these presents hereby containing the tenor and meaning as being my Last Will and Testament.
