Husband of Margaret (Macleod) MacLeod — married 16 Aug 1805 in Stornoway, Isle of Lewis, Scotland. Father of Mary (Macleod) Finlayson, Catherine MacLeod, Malcolm MacLeod, Angus MacLeod and Murdo Macleod. Died 31 Mar 1860 in Aird Tong, Isle of Lewis, Scotland. Crofter. Cause of death - "Infirmities of age." The "Aird" which is referred to here as Donald Macleod's birthplace is not the Aird in Point, Isle of Lewis, but Aird Tong, Isle of Lewis. The geni profile given in the sources refers to an entirely different person. I don't think people from outside the Scottish islands realise just how many Macleods there are, and how many Donald Macleods!”
