Research Notes

A birth or baptism record to David has not be located. Also an entry for the 1841 and 1851 census haven't been located.

Daughter Margaret's birth year is unclear. In the 1871 census, she was aged 12, although the birth record in 1861 suggests she was a twin of Robert. The relevant birth certificates are needed to clarify this inconsistency.
