Island story
Andrew “Happy” MacDonald was a son of Angus Hector “Happy Angus” MacDonald and Adeline “Dollie” MacFarlane and a brother of John Alexander “Jack Happy” MacDonald. The 1931 census records Andrew as a household head with wife Florence and daughter Joan. A Church Cemetery cross at C-016 names Andrew and Florence. His exact birth and death dates remain open, but his identity within the Happy Angus family and his 1931 household are strongly supported.
