approximately 500 people, mostly Whisenhunts and McRae's formed a wagon train and headed west. Malcolm settled in Pike County, Arkansas around the communities of Highland and Nathan, There they stayed until moving to Fannin County Texas in 1856. It is said that Malcolm walked into the General Store in Elwood with a gun over his shoulder and $20,000 in gold. He purchased 444 acres of land near Elwood where he lived the rest of his life. While living in Georgia, Arkansas and Texas, he served as justice of the peace and it attests to his fairness that no appeal was ever taken from his docket. The Fannin County community of McRae was named for this McRae family.

Notes:

Hugh came to America in 1774 with his parents, he was 8 years old. They first settled in South Carolina, and from there they went to Georgia.

Carolina, counties that border each other, Malcolm was found as an ancestor at the LDS Family History Center, submitted by Juanita Inglish Johnson, 1012 S.

to America in 1791. A farmer in Robeson County N.C. with a wife and eight children in 1812. If Hugh were born in 1761, this Malcolm could not
be his father.

Notes:

Some people say Nancy was born in South Carolina, but I believe she was born in Scotland and came to America around the same time as Hugh
Bain McRae, her future husband did.
