I've just checked the 1841 Census. Possibility that Donald (husband of Helen Bower & father of Donald 1790) may still have been alive in 1841:

In Stroma, there is a Donald Warse aged 85-89, a cottager, living with a Jane aged 55-59 (would fit the daughter Jean Bervonian found b. 1785).

He and Jane are on the same page of the census as son Donald and Helen & family. Good possibility they were 'next door..or two'! Also next to them is who could also be the 3rd Generation Donald Warse, son of Donald and Helen, with his wife Isabella...and baby Donald Warse 4th generation!

Long living lot you have!

Regards.

Monica

I saw that census but did not take much hed of it.
Now looked at it much more closely and agree. There is at leat three generations,if not four if you count the baby.My guess is there at least one other Donald in front of them all ie a father othe one married to Helen Bower
