Notes
a. Note:   From the 1861 Canadian Census of West Ashfield Township, Huron County, Ontario, page 51, film #2202/ C-1035. Angus is listed in the household of his parents: Angus McLoud; born- W. Canada, religion- C of E, age- 6, male ============= From the 1871 Canadian Census of Ashfield Township, Division 2, North Huron County, Ontario, pages 36-37, family # 121, microfilm roll #9930. Angus is listed in the household of his parents: McLeod, Angus; male, age- 17, born- Ontario, religion- C. Presbyterian, origin- Scotch ============= "Angus McLeod" is listed as a witness to the marriage of his brother Alexander McLeod, in Ashfield Township, Huron County, Ontario, on January 20, 1875. ============ From the 1881 Census of Canada; Ashfield Township, Huron North County, Ontario, Canada; District 175, page 24, family #113; Angus is listed in the household of his parents: - Angus Mcleod; male, age- 27, origin- Scottish, born- Ontario, occupation- farmer, religion- Presbyterian ============== Bill Beckman ([email protected]) sent me copies of the Naturalization Records for Angus, which he obtained through the Chester Fritz Library at the University of North Dakota. The first record documents that he immigrated to the United States in July of 1881, landing at Duluth, Minnesota. It further shows that he apparently came rather directly to the area of Grand Forks County in the Territory of Dakota. The record was made and signed by "Angus McLeod" in Grand Forks County, Territory of Dakota, and is dated August 4, 1881. It is essentially an application for U.S. citizenship. It was found in Volume D-3 of the Naturalization Records, on page 303. I have since learned that Angus' sister Alexandria Finlayson and her husband Donald Finlayson, were in the Grand Forks County area of the Dakota Territory, over a year earlier. They are listed there in the town of Americus, in the 1880 census, taken in June of 1880. The second part of the Naturalization Record is dated November 1, 1890, and was also signed by "Angus McLeod" in the County of Grand Forks, in the state of North Dakota. This document makes reference to the earlier document from August 4, 1881, and records that on this date, Angus was granted U.S. citizenship. It was found in Volume F-23 of the Naturalization records, page 365. ============= From Ancestry.com and Genealogical Research Library (Brampton, Ontario, Canada).

Although it does not mention Angus or his wife Mary, and it does mention his brother Malcolm (who would pass away two months later), most of the folks mentioned are descendants of Angus and Mary. From the Hammond Times, Hammond, Indiana; dated July 19, 1940: MacLeod Family Holds Reunion Members of the MacLeod family held a reunion Sunday at the farm home of Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Bates near Kouts, Ind., who reside on 132nd street. During the active, several bountiful meals were served and various contests in progress. Mr. and Mrs. Malcolm MacLeod of Chicago were the oldest persons at the reunion and Franklin Green, Jr. of Calumet City, was the youngest. Among the Hammond guests were Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth MacLeod and daughter, Mary Lee and Harry MacLeod, while the Calumet City members were Mr. and Mrs. Bates and daughter, Joan Clare. Mr. and Mrs. Sam Houston, Mr. and Mrs. Franklin Green and son, and Shelton Smith. The other guests included Mr. and Mrs. D. M. Patterson of Dundee, Ill.; Mr. and Mrs. A. J. MacLeod and children. Jackie and Neil of Mundelein, Ill.; Mr. and Mrs. Malcolm MacLeod and Mr. and Mrs. Forest J. Smith and children, Forest, Jr., Norma Jean and Donna May of Gary; Mr. and Mrs. Angus MacLeod of Champaign, Ill.; Mr. and Mrs. Robert Croak of Lansing, Ill., and Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Lutterell and children, Richard, Donnie, Harry and Robert of Cedar Lake. ============ Angus is buried at the Oak Hill Cemetery in Hammond, Indiana. The address of the cemtery is: 6445 Hohman Ave, Hammond, Lake County, Indiana 46324-1078 Phone: 219-932-0206. His headstone reads: MacLeod Angus N. MacLeod Feb. 2, 1855 Dec. 21, 1917 (Angus' wife Mary is not listed on this headstone, despite the fact that there is clearly room for her inscription. Bob Croak said he was unable to find her grave in the cemetery, but noted that the cemetery was quite overgrown with grass. He did locate the grave of Angus' oldest daughter Dora Croak, as well as Dora's oldest son Angus P. Croak.- RW)
