From what Carol says he was a Captain - RN or Merchant Navy and the family seem quite 'posh'. They might well not be in Scotland in 1841  Undecided

Don't think I can help anymore here.

Thank you all once again for taking so much trouble on my behalf.

You are correct in that my Gabriel was married to Charlotte Louisa.  He was Gabriel William according to his daughter's marriage certificate.

Hello again!

I have been going through a tin of very old bits and pieces we have on the family and the paper I have says that Mungo Park and Elspeth had 13 children, one of whom was a Joseph, so it looks as if there may have been a couple more not actually registered at baptism?

Also one of the Mungo's we have, was married at Berwick Upon Tweed, so that part of the family may have been in that region and not Scotland itself.  I just wish they had been more imaginative with naming their children in those days as there appear to have been lots and lots of Mungos about!

Happy Hogmanay to all of you, and thanks again for all your help.
