      An article in the "Collections of the New Brunswick Historical Society", No. 9, 1914, by Professor W. H. Siebert, contains information about this John McPhail and his wife Margaret. It's taken from a document found in early records of the New Brunswick Court of Chancery, called

      "The Answer of Margaret McPhail wife of John McPhail, Defendant, to the Bill of Complaint of Zebedee Hammond of Charlotte County, yeoman, Complainant". This document is dated May 6, 1786, and signed by "Margery McPhail", and it tells us that when the 74th left Penobscot in early 1784, John McPhail sailed to Great Britain on private business with the troops who had chosen to go home.

      That likely explains why he doesn't appear on the earlier list. The dispute involved a building in Penobscot that was to be taken down and transported to Passamaquoddy by Zebedee Hammond. John McPhail's wife must have been the Margaret "McVail" on this list, which suggests that Hugh "McVail" was married to the other McPhail woman, Abigail. All Saints Anglican Church records list the marriage of "Marjory" Martin and John McPhail on July 23, 1789. This appears to be the same couple, though she was "wife of" John in the 1786 document.
