           [306-307]

           DANIEL McGREGOR, farmer, section 9, Bloomfield Township, was
        born Nov. 20, 1835, in Glengarry Co., Ont.  His parents, JOHN and
        CATHERINE (McDONALD) McGREGOR, are both living in the village of
        Wyebridge, Simcoe Co., Ont.  The father was born at Glenlion in the
        Highlands of Scotland, and will be 83 years of age Dec. 25, 1884.
        The mother is 75 years old, and is a native of Ontario.
           MR. McGREGOR was reared to the vocation of farmer by his father,
        and when he reached his majority engaged in lumbering in Simcoe
        Co., Ont., where he passed the winter seasons of four years in the
        various avenues pertaining to that branch of business, and at the
        same time he engaged in mercantile business at Wyebridge, in which
        he was occupied ten years. At the end of that time his business was
        destroyed by fire, and unfortunately without insurance.
           He came to Michigan, and, meeting MR. L. HUBBARD at Port Huron,
        he engaged with him in the capacity of foreman on his farm. He
        bought the property of which he has since been the owner in 1877.
        It was in a wholly wild condition and he has expended his labors
        and energies upon it until he has placed 45 acres in a good agri-
        cultural condition, with a frame house and barn upon it.
           MR. McGREGOR is a Democrat, and has been Supervisor of his
        township one year. He has a thorough knowledge of horses.
           His marriage to ISABELLA KENNEDY occurred Feb. 21, 1860. Their
        children have been born as follows: KATIE M., April 22, 1862;
        FINLAY, May 11, 1864; MARGARETTA A., April 7, 1867; JEANNETTE M.,
        April 24, 1870; LILLIAN E., April 29, 1872; BELLA MAY, July 4,
        1876.
           MRS. McGREGOR was born Dec. 21, 1835, in Ontario, which is also
        the birth-place of her parents, HUGH and JEANNETTE (McINTOSH)
        KENNEDY.  They are of Scotch descent and are about 82 years of age.
        Their family comprised nine children.  She and her husband are mem-
        bers of the Methodist Episcopal Church.
