Henry’s parents were Etienne Mycue Sr. and Mary McDonald. McDonald implies Scottish ancestry. Nettie was born in 1869 in Minnesota to Thomas Downs (1842, England) and Margaret Ann Elliots. Thomas was the son of George Downs and Elizabeth Taylor. Margaret was the daughter of John Elliot and Elizabeth Breidenthal (1812-1909).
