    Welcome to our group, Kevin.

    Presumably it was not Jane at Loiusburg?  Perhaps that was Thomas Mellish of Prince Edward Island?

    Did Jane marry twice?

    Yours aye,

    William

    I think Jane may have been the grand daughter of Rev William Douglas: http://www.douglashistory.co.uk/history/william_douglas15.htm

    I have no source evidence for my 'thinking'.

    My comments are based on unevidenced research by others where it is stated that Rev. William Douglas, by his wife Nicholas Hunter, had a son, Captain William James Douglas, born 1733, who was an army officer who was killed at the battle of the Plains of Abraham on 13th September 1759. He was a widower, his wife probably dieing in childbirth, and left a daughter, Jane, who married Captain Thomas Condon Mellish. 

    But, to repeat, I have seen no evidence.
