Charles Alexander Julian married Miss Jane Moore, a daughter of Edward Moore and Ellen McDonald Moore, his wife, of Fredericksburg, Virginia.  Mr. Moore was born
in England and emigrated to America when a lad and settled in Fredericksburg, Virginia, where he married Ellen McDonald, daughter of Donald McDonald. The McDonald
ancestors migrated from Scotland to Antrim, Ireland in the fourteenth century.

Browning in his "Royal Americans", says that Donald McDonald was a lineal descendant of Robert ll, King of Scotland (1370-1390), whose daughter, Princess Margaret
Stuart of Scotland, was the second wife of Angus Mor McDonald, Lord of the Isles, whose descent O'Hart in his "Irish Pedigrees" 3rd edition, traces still further back through
the ancestry of Conn Cheadeath to Sumerledus McDonald, the eight and greatest Thane of Argyle 1140, and founder of the Isles. Though this line of ancestry Donald McDonald
was connected with many of the great and noble families of three kingdoms, being a cousin of the Earl of Antrim; and through this line of ancestry his descendants have come
into the same coat of arms which still emblazons the gate of the castle of the Earl of Antrim, which my sister in her recent travels visited and describes as so beautifully.  
"Situated at Glenarm, immediately upon the sea shore, and bearing no marks of age except in its style of architecture.  It is still owned by the descendants of the last Earl of
Antrim, who show great pride in their coat of arms as a badge of royalty".
