Wright in clackmannanshire

[Kev Searching]

Hi folks, wonder if anyone can help. I have been searching my history but have come to a stop at Robert Wright and Janet hunter married 20th may 1850. I know they have at least 3 sons David, Robert and William. David lived in Alloa married Janet Cowie and had at least 2 children Isabella and David who I have as shop keepers from the 1901 census, David died in 1921, Robert lived in Alva and died in 1914 and William lived in Stirling and died in 1933. Any info on any of the above would be greatly appreciated especially parentage for Robert Wright.
