In Ft. Edward 1835 census, there is a Dougal McDougall apparently over 45 with wife under 45 and 1 daughter under 16. No corresponding entry has been found in earlier or later censuses.

A deed from Dougall and Polly McDougall to James McFarland (vol. L, p. 17) dated 23 sep 1808 involves this couple. There is considerable doubt about this family. The birthdates of the children are so spread out that we are inclined to think more than one family has been combined here. Dougal's portion of Lot 75, the southern third, was divided as follows: 100 acres to James McFarland 23 sep 1808, 41.67 acres to Thomas Martin 26 apr 1810, remainder of 25.71 acres to Samuel Rea, deed not located, but evidently purchased before 26 apr 1810. However, the same 25 acres were sold 07 feb 1823 by James W. Gillis and Archibald J. Gilchrist, administrators of the estate of Samuel Rea, to James Flack, the highest bidder (vol. S, p. 206, 1823, the parcel described as follows: Beginning at the south west corner of said farm lot number seventy five and running thence on the west line of said lot so far north as that a line drawn therefrom and running parralel with the south line of said lot until it strikes the west line of a piece of land formerly owned by James McFarland shall make twenty five acres).

Will dated 07 oct 1774, probated 05 apr 1791. Children petitioned for settlement of the estate on 11 jun 1789. Lists of the Argyle settlers show he arrived in 1739 with wife Janet Calder, and children John, Alexander, Ronald, Dugald, and Margaret. He is still listed with 5 children in 1764. The list of about 1763 claims "six" children, but lists them as "three sons and two daughters", so the total was most likely only 5. By 1763, two sons and a daughter had married, and the married daughter was already widowed with 4 children, however her name has not surfaced.
Duncan was the owner of Lot 75 (farm and town lots), originally totalling 500 acres.
The will of Duncan McDougall, dated 07 oct 1774 (Will book I, 43-45) resulted in division of his farm lot 75 into 3 parts: the northern part, 150 acres, to his eldest son Alexander, the middle third, 150 acres, to Ronald (Ronald also received town lot 75 of 50 acres, which we have not yet followed further) , and the southern third, 150 acres, to Dougall. These divisions are noted in later deeds. No widow is mentioned, so Janet must have died before the will was drawn up in 1774. Thus the will divided the farm Lot 75 among the surviving sons. Duncan's daughters, Nancy, Peggy, and Jenny, had already received "their full part" out of Duncan's effects. Duncan further made provisions that his sons should support him during the remainder of his life, and the executors were to be his sons Alexander and Ronald. The will was proved 25 apr 1791, with Ronald designated the Executor.
[6838] Last 2 digits of year are cut off in my copy of Jennie M. Patten's manuscript.
[6839] 11jun1789 is date of petition for partition of estate, will is dated 07oct1774, probated 05apr1791. Mentions sons Alexander, Ronald, and Dougal, plus daughters Margaret, Nancy, and Jennet.

This is probably the Duncan McDougall who appears on p. 466 of the 1810 census of Argyle, with a male 10-16 in the same household (could easily be a grandson). The readings for 1790 and 1800 are consistent, and reveal 3 sons and 4 daughters, possibly more. However, the age in the 1800 census is still in the 26-45 category. A possible explanation might be that a generation has been skipped.
This might be the same Duncan McDougall who married Ann Traford by 1768 and had at least 6 children. The name Traford turns up later in a great niece of Duncan, suggesting a connection. The Traford family seems to be centered around the Mt. Ross area (Livingston Manor). So far, no further trace of Catherine has turned up, and Duncan is otherwise only known to have one child. There were, however, other Duncan McDougall's in the Hudson Valley, and it is difficult to be sure which was which. Ann Traford might be the widow Ann McDougall in the 1800 census of Argyle, but if that is so, we would have to find an explanation for the Duncan McDougall in the same census who would then be unidentified.
A Duncan McDougall 1744-1795 is believed to have been the soldier who was a member of the Tyrone County New York Commitee of Safety, 24 may and 02 jun 1775, claimed in 1896 as ancestor of NY SAR member Edward Jonathan Wheeler.
