Hi there

In what way are you seeking descendants - the issue of the Rev Dr Sterling are below - do you have anything on them at all already?  Such as Census or spouses? Or perhaps your post means  you are looking to make contact with living descendants?

Quoting this site:
http://www.electricscotland.com/history/men/stirling_robert.htm

Robert Stirling: Married 10 Jul 1819, to Jean Rankin, daughter of William Rankin, wine merchant in Kilmarnock, and Jean McKay.

Son: Patrick Stirling, born 29 Jun 1820, became a famous Railway Locomotive Engineer.
Dau: Jane Stirling, born 25 Sep 1821, fed ideas of her own to her bothers.
Son: William Stirling born 14 Nov 1822, was a Civil Engineer and Railway Engineer in South America.
Son: Robert Stirling, born 16 Dec 1824, was a Railway Engineer in Peru.
Son: David Stirling, born 12 Oct 1828, followed in his father's footsteps and became the Minister of Craigie, Ayrshire.
Son: James Stirling, born 02 Oct 1835, was another well known Railway Engineer.
Dau: Agnes Stirling, born 22 Jul 1838, was a gifted artist whose talents were confined to the family.
