David Buchanan brother of Margaret who married Colonel Sir David Davidson

Thanks Sancti,

I'm back on track now  ;D

1891 he is still in Humbold Road, living on own means with wife Annie and family

Forfarian, this may be a fact from your earlier thought...

or that he came to own these properties in later life, and if so, how did he afford them?

Ah, yes, there he is, indexed as Buchman. No wonder he didn't appear before!
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
