Daniel McCLard

(Abt 1700 - 1774)

Daniel was probably born in Scotland or England in th early 1700s. Dorothy
was born in Germany and her last name may have been Schmidt or something
similar. Daniel left a will dated January 27, 1774 that names his wife
Dorothy, son John, Mary Harris and grandson Daniel. Rumor has it that Daniel
& his son (probably John) were asked to leave Scotland! Another family story
has it that some of the McDonald & McCloud families were feuding, so some of
the McCloud family changed their name to McClard/McLard.
