Peeblesshire / AITKEN family, West Linton, Peeblesshire

Hi
I'm searching for family descendants, who could possibly assist with tracing family tree of, Robert, Liz, Thomas, Richard Aitken, born circa 1860-1875, in West Linton, Peeblesshire, Scotland, to John Aitken (sawyer) and Grace, his second wife (seamstress).
I think both Robert and Richard became bankers, Robert in India and Richard, in South Africa. Thomas, became Rev Tom Aitken of Kingswilliamstown, South Africa, via a stint as Prison Chaplain on the Island of St Helena.
Any info further back to John & Grace Aitken, and anything else much appreciated.
Thanks
