Yes, I agree that Jeans and Janes are different names. But when clerks were hearing people pronounce a name it was easy to get it wrong when writing it down, especially if people weren't able to correct them because they  couldn't read or write.

I agree that David as a weaver and Sarah's maiden name was Hunter - see my post above. Is that what you meant?

David will have a Jean & Jane 1 yr apart but having 1 child loaned out was common
The checking for David & Sarah would have been on their daughter's mar to a Mundel....very hard to read

OK. I agree that the details on Jane K's marriage to Edward Mundle are not easy to read. But I'm sure David was a weaver and his wife, Sarah, had the surname Hunter.

Hi bramhallbill,
                       I am sure when I say that all Scottish BMD census  etc. are held in NRH or GROS as it is otherwise known and that Salt Lake City acquired them from here.
                       If I am wrong I hope some kind person will correct me.

Midlad is right. NRH hold the originals of the statutory BMD records, censuses and parish registers, plus many other public records and documents http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/Content/FAQs/Questions/index.aspx?370

The LDS records are more limited - http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/Content/FAQs/Questions/index.aspx?90
