« on: Friday 15 July 16 17:22 BST (UK)  »
Many thanks for your help, I have scotlands people 1841 & 1861 census 1841 is from coanside Sutherland where David was a Shepard and 1861 ballachulish & corran of argour where he was also Shepard until his tragic death in 1864. I have his death certificate which has details of death but no mention of mother or father. On kids birth cert it states David and Eliza ( Elizabeth) were married Sep 1840 in Sutherland again dead end. I have also contacted Scottish archives who also could not find marriage or birth cert for david. I have emailed Hawick as you suggested so hopefully I might get further! Again many thanks for your help.

Hi unfortunately I cannot find david or family on 1851 census. He is on 1861 census which states he is from Perthshire. The first son is Duncan which I cannot find a link for and first daughter is Janet after David's wife's mother. I will continue to search. Many thanks for your help

This is indeed the family, I have all this info but unfortunately cannot proceed any further than 1809 as I cannot find info on David's parents. I have Eliza 's parents. I have contacted the Mormons but I cannot find any other info to proceed? I also have a relative who has tried to go back further but has been stuck at 1809.

Hi everyone, first time on roots chat. I am looking for a birth cert or marriage cert for my grandfather
David Johnston 1809. David was married to Isabella Fraser according to son David's birth cert (born 1862 in the parish of ballachulish)  they were married in Sutherland in 1840. David was a Shepard on census 1851 he is reported to have been born in Peeblesshire? He died tragically 1865 in corran of argour. There is no parents on death certificate only procurator fiscal report of accident. Any help would be appreciated.
