Looking at the 1851 census for male Farley's born Plymouth area about the same time as Grace there is one who says born Plymouth, he is living in Exeter, then there appears to be a family born Plymton St Mary ( not far from Plymouth)

I think you can E Mail and request PR look ups from here.

So maybe worth doing if only to eliminate that village.

Hi Wiggy

You didn't mention it but I take it you have David senior's marriage to Grace?

5 Sep 1814 St Andrew, Plymouth
Any census information included in this post is Crown Copyright, from www.nationalarchives.gov.uk
Especially looking for - Sealey, Rogers, Cannings, Box, Sheppard in Wiltshire; Virgin, Slade, Abbott, Saint, Harper, Silverthorn in Somerset; and Virgin, Tarr, Beer in Devon

And most especially the origins of William Cannings,  a Baptist, born abt 1791 in Broughton Gifford, Wiltshire

Other siblings for David junior, baptised St Andrew, Plymouth-

Mary Ann 25 Jun 1815 (father's occ mariner)
Grace 6 Dec 1816 (father's occ seaman)
Henry 4 Jun 1819 (father's occ mariner)

David's own baptism was 5 Jan 1825 so either he was baptised the day he was born (quite possible) or the date you have might be baptism rather than birth?

Just for completion in case you haven't got the actual baptism dates -

Elizabeth 20 Nov 1822(father's occ mariner)
Harriet 13 May 1827 (father's occ Master, Royal Navy)
no sign of Archibald or Caroline

Added Can see why no later children- looks like the family moved from the parish of St Andrew to St Charles the Martyr at some point

Added again
Looks like Mary Ann didn't make it - buried St Andrews  29 Jun 1817

In 1851 David and Grace have a 13 year old daughter Caroline with them so I guess there are more children.

I'm sure you're right Jaywit - I just can't find the parish records for them  ::)  Have you found the family in 1841? I'm struggling there.....

Also - it looks like they didn't follow the traditional Scottish naming pattern for children either because I couldn;t find David senior's birth on Scotland;s people giving Henry as Dad and Grace or Elizabeth as Mum  :(

No I can't see them in 1841, I wondered if David was away at sea and Grace didn't fill in the census, or answer the door to the enumerator.

I think we should be able to find marriages as they should be after 1837. I'll look how many Duncan marriages there were in Plymouth.
