He accompanied Major McPherson to India, where he married Isabella, known as "Bell". Their daughter, Ellen, was born while the regiment was on its way to Calcutta.

Lance Sergeant Donald died at Berhampore. His widow was entitled to a credit of two pounds and ten pence three farthings as well as prize money for the capture of guns and ammunition at Jubbalpore, but no pension. After six months, she was struck off the regiment's ration strength. With no means of support, Bell had to either starve or re-marry.

They had a son, James Ward, born 18 Feb 1824, but his father died the following year at Arakan. In Feb 1826, Bell married Sergeant Thomas Abbott at Berhampore.
