James McDougall b. 1900 in the Glasgow area, Scotland emigrated to Canada around 1919. He married Elizabeth 'unknown' in Vancover and had four children, three girls & a boy. I only know one girl was called Elizabeth (Betty) her married name was Drewry. James was one of 7 children, Mary b.abt. 1889 emigrated earlier and married, James went to live with her in Vanccover. |

For info, is this James and his family? Do you know who Mary married? |

Thank you Richard. The name & birthplace fit but he would be with his sister Mary. I think Mary's husband was born in Canada. I know he was a civil engineer and was involved in building bridges. |

Yes that is the family, Thomas was my grandmother's brother, she & my grandfather took James to the ship, so I wondered if his parents, or at least his father had died. The story goes that he should have gone on the Titanic but that story is too involved to write here. He went out on the next available ship but I don't know which that was. |

David, I am sure Gill would love to hear from you and compare notes but it is very unlikely she would come upon your message. |
