There's also a Dunbarton in South Africa and from this rootsweb email evidence that there were Trotts in SA at the beginning of the 20th century including a James Harrington Trott (Danvers father). Maybe Danvers studied in Dunbarton SA (not Scotland) before returning to India.

ROBERT TROTT taking out a mortgage in 1902.
J. TROTT, a Constable, being transferred in 1903.
H. RIX-TROTT an Acting District Inspector of Public Works in 1904.
CHARLES ALBERT TROTT and ROBERT TROTT with a mortgage bond in 1904.
More about H. RIX-TROTT in 1904.
