Duncan MacKinnon was my Great Grandfather. Duncan was born on the Isle of Skye in Scotland around 1889. I do not know of his parentage as yet.
I do not know who Duncan's first wife was. I have heard that his first wife and second wife were cousins. His first wife died in childbirth.
Secondly Duncan married Mary Isabella Campbell on the 27 April 1923 in Sydney, NSW, Australia. They lived in Doonside, then a rural town 40 km from Sydney on a poultry farm. Mary worked the farm while Duncan was at sea.
Duncan and Mary were baptised into the Christadelphian faith on 21 May 1932.
Duncan died at age 83 on 8 June 1972 at the Elizabeth Drive Nursing Home in Liverpool Sydney.
