Looking for Mcdonald County Dublin Ireland

By ChicletBlue May 20, 2014 1010 views 1 comments

My great grandfather, Adam McDonald, was born in County Dublin, Ireland about 1836. He was in Placer County California by 1849, living in Iowa Hill and Forest Hill as a gold miner. He was married to Mary Bridget O'Donnell, who was also born in Ireland, about 1825. They had the following children: William, Alexander, (my grandfather), and Elizabeth. Adam died in May 1900 in Placer Co. CA.
I am looking for any information on parents or siblings in Ireland, also information on his date and place of arrival into the U.S.
Thanks
