General note
Malcolm MacDougall (1813-1898) was the principal merchant in Christmas Island parish for more than sixty years. His success came from trading with Little Bras d'Or rather than Arichat, which was a much more laborious, time saving venture. He also benefited from trade with Newfoundland firms, shipping farm animals and equipment from Cape Breton and mainland Nova Scotia.
