Letters to America

[William Douglas]

I have just received copies of letters written to Betsy Mary Monroe, nee Douglas, and others, in 1830.  This image is the 'envelope' for three of them.

Betsy is the daughter of George Douglas and Margaret McCrone, George being the brother of Sir William Douglas of Castle Douglas. 

Betsy Mary Douglas, was married to Col James Monroe, nephew of US President James Monroe (and possible an adopted son?).

I am looking for help identifying others mentioned in the letters:

'Harriet, G & W' is presumably the same as 'George, Wm & H';

George is also referred to as 'Geo Douglas';

'Your brother Wiliam' is presumably the William mentioned above;

But who are these?

• Mrs Proctor;
• Mrs Chapman;
• James Chapman;
• Mr and Mrs Halliday;
• Mr Jamieson;
• Margaret;
• 'dear little Willy'  - ?a grandson
