Of the known daughters of Duncan McDougall and Janet Calder who came from Scotland, only Margaret was old enough to have been married and widowed with 4 children by 1763. However, the name of her husband is not mentioned in the documents relating to the Argyle Patent. Further complicating this story are suggestions that Mark Liddle, who is said to have come from Scotland and settled in the Argyle Patent in 1795, married Margaret, daughter of Duncan McDougall, and that Duncan (who clearly died in 1791, his will proved in April of that year) "apparently left the remainder of lot 75 to his children", including Margaret, wife of Mark Liddle! In any case, Mark and Margaret somehow ended up wtih 84 acres of lot 75 (according to James McNaughton — our count shows 134 acres), which they sold in 1805 (Deed, M, p. 54)) to Andrew McMullen.
The deed in question reveals that the property was in fact in the northern third of Lot 75 (four separately described parcels), which had been the part Alexander McDougall received from the estate of his father Duncan McDougall. By 1793 (still prior to the arrival of Mark Liddle in the Argyle Patent), Sgt. Alexander McDougall, husband of Jane, one of Duncan's daughters, bought up all shares of the northern third of lot 75, so Mark Liddle must have purchased his property from or through Sgt. Alexander. The property, or at least the first part of it, 100 acres, appears to be that purchased by Mark and Margaret by means of a mortgage payable to Thomas Buchanan of the City of New York, merchant, 02 oct 1795, and paid in full on 13 oct 1795 (Washington Co., NY, Morgages, vol. A, 605-606, one hundred acres in lot seventy rive, beginning at Randle McDougal's north west corner to the north west corner of the whole lot, then east to the north east corner of the whole lot, then south to Randle McDougall's north east corner, then west to the place of beginning, excepting out of the said bounds fifty acres to be taken square of [perhaps =off ?] the northwest corner, containing one hundred acres of land exclusive of lakes and ponds — this phrase might be an unrecognized part of the original survey of lot 75, perhaps the original 450 acres was intended to be "exclusive of lakes and ponds", and so the original measurements might not work out exactly to 450 acres). Perhaps Sgt. Alexander had obtained financing from Thomas Buchanan and had not been able to pay off his morgtage in time to avoid forfeiture. However, this story leave us far from proof or even a strong suggestion that Margaret, wife of Mark Liddle, was a daughter of Duncan McDougall and Janet Calder.

She is identified as a daughter of "Randall" McDougall and as the wife of William McCarter in a quit claim deed (Washington Co., Deeds, EE, pp. 105-106) in which the later owners of her 1/6th interest, Abel Wood and his wife Electa, sell the 1/6th interest in the original parcel of about 35 acres to John McDougall, 20 dec 1827. A few years earlier, Robert McDougall held a 1/7th interest in the same property, which was sold at a sheriff's sale for debts and eventually purchased by John McDougall. However, that there would now be a 1/6th interest seems to imply that one of the original 7 had died without issue in the interim.

Possibly this is the Margaret J. McDougall who married Clarence Snyder. The other possible Margaret seems a closer match, based on burial place of the two different families, but no conclusive proof has been found.

Possibly the Mary Etta McDougall buried in the same plot with Alexander and Julia, dates shown in transcribed cemetery records as 07 apr 1873 - 24 nov 1897, married James B. McNaughton. James is not buried there, and if he can be found in census or other records, the identity of Mary Etta might be confirmed. See Gibson Papers, p. 208, where a Miss McDougall is second wife of James B. McNaughton.
