(died 11 Dec. 1833, aged 40), physician. (name used with title M.D.) His origins may have been in Breadalbane, Perthshire, Scotland. He was a Royal Navy surgeon and half-pay officer who came “to Canada and Lochiel” c. 1823 and moved c. 1830 to L’Orignal, north of GC. In 1825 he married Helen Grant, whose father is described as also a half-pay officer in the GC area, Lt. Col. Alpin Grant from the 42nd Black Watch. Little has been discovered about Alpin Grant. Helen Grant’s sister was married to the Rev. John McLaurin. Dr McNaughton died at Longueuil, which means perhaps at L’Orignal, rather than any place in Lower Canada, and he is buried at the Cassburn Cemetery, Prescott County.
