Many of your McDonald family members are cited on my Wells' Battn web page:

You'll notice that some of these McDonalds, were first in Stevens' 22d Texas Cavalry.
.
Some of these McDonalds connect to my huge Criswell family. One was a "Sevier McDaniel b-1844 AR in the 1860 Palo Pinto Co TX cen p336" enumerated with my ggg-gmother Sarah (Gray) Blair. He was later called Sevier McDonald. ..One of his biological brothers spelled his name as an adult "McDonnell." ..Yes, many years ago I compiled a McDaniel/McDonald/McDonnell family sheet so I could understand how they connected to my families.

Google. ..Toward the bottom of each of my 200 web pages, see a Google function feature.
.
In my 200-page Name Index, I have about 70 McDonalds, including your "Wilson McDonald" who was mentioned on three pages.

McDONALD, Wilson McDonald (1827 MO-1877) m-A.J. McCarley; Stevens's 22d Cav, Co G; Scanland's Co A, Wells' Battn (Fannin Co, TST)
