Donald Trump is the son
of a Scotswoman His mother, Mary Anne MacLeod was from the hebridean Island of
Lewis, off the west coast of Scotland, from where she emigrated to America and
met and married Frederick Trump, of German origin
At that time, MacLeod
was the most common surname in the island and is well represented there to this
day
Mary Anne was born in
the village of Tong, in the parish of Stornoway on 10th May 1912, to a
fisherman named Malcolm MacLeod and his wife, Mary Smith
This couple had been married in 1891 and both
were Gaelic speakers, and although not so widespread as it once was, the
language is still alive and well in that region It is thus likely that
Mary Anne herself would have spoken it and the
young Donald may well have been soothed by Gaelic lullabies as a child
Mary Smith MacLeod lived
until the age of ninety six years, dying in 1963. At that time her address was
No. 5, Tong; she had been born, married and died in the village which is on a
promontory 4 miles NNE of Stornoway
The birth of her daughter, Mary Anne, had
taken place at No. 3 Tong and it seems to have been a close-knit community of
crofters and fishermen, many of the men folk following both these traditional
occupations in the appropriate seasons of the year
Certainly, Malcolm MacLeod, Mary's husband was
variously described as crofter and fisherman; he also lived to a respectable
age and died (also at No. 5 Tong) in 1954 aged eighty seven.
Malcolm MacLeod was born
in 1866 in Aird of Tong and his parents were an illustration of the prevalence
of the surname, both being MacLeods
His mother had been Ann MacLeod before her
marriage in 1853 to Alexander MacLeod
At that time, the spelling of names and place names
was erratic and inconsistent, depending merely upon the whims of the individual
them self or of the clerk concerned
Frequently it was the preference of the clerk
which prevailed as the earlier generations were not always literate and many of
the documents were signed with "X - his mark"
Malcolm had evidently learned to write but on
registering his 1866 birth, his father, Alexander had simply added his mark
These families,
invariably with numerous children (Malcolm was one of ten) lived in fairly
primitive conditions in a harsh environment, and examples of the famous 'black
houses' of the area survive today
These consisted of low, thick, stone walls and
sturdy roof coverings of thatch (well seasoned with generations of soot) which
kept out the worst of the winter weather
The central hearth, in
the middle of the floor provided both warmth and cooking facilities
Both men and women worked on the land, with
women generally bearing the brunt of the hard labour of cutting and carrying
home the peats which fuelled the household fires - children were also pressed
into service at this task
Life was hard in this
bleak moorland island where the few indigenous trees struggled up through the
generally boggy landscape, covered with heather, moss and rushes
The machair, a strip of
sandy soil made up of shell sand and vegetation which bordered the sea was good
pasture for those who kept cattle.
No official record was
made of the birth or baptism of Alexander MacLeod - the grandfather of Mary
Anne MacLeod Trump) but, according to the ages shown for him in various
sources, i.e. census returns,
His marriage and death
certificates, he would have been born in Stornoway around 1830. This was before
the advent in Scotland of compulsory registration of these events in 1855
His death record reveals
that both he and his father had been crofters and that each of his parents was
also named MacLeod - William and Catherine.
Mary MacLeod Trump's
maternal line was also well established in Tong, her mother, Mary, being born
there in 1867 to Donald Smith and Mary Macaulay Smith. They had been married in
Garrabost, also in the parish of Stornoway, in 1858
At that time Donald was said to have been a fisherman
and the son of Duncan Smith and Henrietta MacQueen Smith
A note of tragedy creeps
into the family tree here as Donald was lost in Broadbay, off Vatisher Point,
Stornoway when a squall of wind overturned his open boat in 1868
He was aged thirty four and left his widow to
carry on the family croft after his death and to bring up their four children,
the youngest of whom, Mary, was only a year old
Donald's father was the only man in the family
not to have the dual occupations of crofter and fisherman as he was described
as a woollen weaver and cottar
His widow, Henrietta, worked the croft after
his death.
Given the harsh economic
realities of life in such isolated communities of subsistence farming and
fishing, it is little wonder that numerous Lewismen (and women) emigrated as
the land simply could not sustain the growing population
Clearly there was a better life for them in
the new world
Mary MacLeod Trump, and
she passed away in New York City in 2000, at age 88. According to her obituary,
in addition her role as wife and mother, Trump was a prominent philanthropist in the city
Much of her philanthropically work centered in
Jamaica, Queens, where the Trump family lived. She actively supported the
Woman's Auxiliary of Jamaica Hospital and the Jamaica Day Nursery
And there was plenty of money to give; by the
time of his death, Trump's father, real estate developer Fred Trump, had
accumulated a fortune worth $300 million
Through his own investments, Donald Trump
increased the family fortune to over $10 billion, according to Business
Insider
Mary MacLeod was born in
Tong, Scotland in 1912 and met Fred Trump on a trip to
New York
She emigrated to the
U.S., and the two married in 1936. She visited her home country often, and
sometimes brought young Donald and his four siblings with her
She spoke Gaelic, and taught her children
some of the language”
