Lola May McDole was born in the town of Villenova, Chautauqua County, New York. For some reason, F-G does not list Villenova. It is still a town, of about 1100 residents.

Lola McDole was the oldest of the two children of the marriage of her parents, both girls. Her sister, Iona May/Mae McDole Hughes is F-G # 115071570. They also had a younger half-brother, Charles Elwin McDole, son of their father and his second wife.

At one point, the 1880 U.S. Census, she was the only person living with her grandmother, who had vision problems. The grandmother in 1900 is listed as blind in the US Census.

Lola May McDole married James L. Donaldson and the two of them had a large family with nine of their children surviving to adulthood and all but one had children of their own.

She is said to have loved having a large family after have been in a small family that was disrupted first by the Civil War and then the divorce of her parents, according to her daughter, my grandmother, Lola Helen Donaldson McGarvey, "Nana".
