There are a number of books that discuss the Bryan McDonald family:<p>

McDonald, Frank V.
<i>Contributions to the Early History of Bryan McDonald and Family, Settlers in 1689, on Red Clay Creek, Mill Creek Hundred (or Township) Newcastle County, Delaware: Together with a few Biographical Sketches and Other Statistics of General Interest to Their Lineal Descendants.</i>
San Francisco: Winterburn & Co., Printers and Electrotypers, 1879.

Some people (including Frank V. McDonald in his 1876 book) suggest
that Bryan's father Alexander might have been the highland chief
MacIan MacDonnell at the Massacre of Glencoe in Scotland in 1692.  This
seems pretty unlikely...I would tend to believe the relatively undramatic
Arklow/Wicklow/Leinster Scotch-Irish origin story...
