Mary MacIsaac married Donald MacLellan (Rankin, [300], not MacLean, et al.)

“Kate, Mary and Christy died young; Margaret died, not married, and another, an infant called Margaret, died also.” (Rankin, [300], makes these sound like Young John’s children, but it does not quite fit what he has said above [unless there were 3 Margarets plus a Christy he forgot to mention], nor with MacLean, et al.  Could he have meant that these were Mary and Donald’s children?)
